PowerPivot in Excel 2013 KPI Status Icons
The KPI status icons for KPIs in PowerPivot only display the default read, yellow, and green circles when displayed in a PivotTable regardless of which icon set is selected when the KPI is created. If the KPI status is displayed in a Power View report then
the icons display as expected. Is this a limitation in PivotTables or is something wrong?
Hi,
I haven't seen the behavior within PowerPivot 2012.

The screenshot shows except the circle shape, the shapes of status icons could be triangle and diamond.
The behavior may be changed in Excel 2013.

Help, PowerPivot in Excel 2013 is missing
hi
I recently change excel 2013 preview to excel profesional 2013 but PowerPivot is missing, what do I have to do, It`s not in the COM add-ins list, I tried too many ways, somebody can help me.Check this out - :(
http://www.powerpivotpro.com/2013/02/hey-who-moved-my-powerpivot-2013-cheese/
Update
Find below the excerpt from MSFT employee
"Hi all,
We understand that this puts those of you who have less than ProPlus in a bad position where your previous Excel 2010 workbooks are concerned. You can't use them in Excel 2013 without updating the data model, and you can't update the data model without the
add-in. If you know someone with ProPlus or an Enterprise SKU, you can always ask them to update the workbook and save it in 2013. From there, you should be able to use it.
For basic PowerPivot functionality, you don't need the add-in. So you can also recreate your PivotTables in Excel 2013 using the new data model. The key is to select "Add this data to the data model" when you create the pivottable from one of your
data sources. Then you can import other tables, and use the "All" tab on the field list to add the other information. On either the Data tab or the PivotTable tools Analyze tab, you can create the relationships you need.
Hope this helps!
Anita"

PowerPivot crash Excel 2013 32 bit
Hi,
When trying to connect Oracle DB (11g) on default configuration (just when trying to do test connection), Excel crashes each time.
Power Query connecting well same DB on same server.
From Visual Studio I can connect same DB on same server.
From .NET code connection work well.
Please help!Hi Vadim,
Power Pivot in Microsoft Excel 2013 doesn’t install the providers for each data source. Some providers might already be installed with other applications on your computer; in other cases, we may need to download and install the provider.
So, please try to install Oracle OLE DB Provider to see if this help. We can get the provider from the link below:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/dotnet/utilsoft-086879.html
For more information about data sources supported in PowerPivot data model, please see:

Excel 2013 PowerPivot Error - "PowerPivot is unable to load the Data Model"
I'm attempting to use the PowerPivot add-on in Excel. When clicking 'Manage Data Model' or attempting to 'Load to data model,' I receive the error 'We couldn't load the Data Model. This may be because the Data Model in this workbook is damaged.',
followed by 'PowerPivot is unable to load the Data Model.' This happens irrespective of data source type. I have Excel 2013 32-bit, PowerPivot 32-bit, running on Windows 7 OS 64-bit. I am not running an SSAS instance on my machine.
Any suggestions?Hi
Have you ever tried to repair your office?
Also we may refer to the following blog :

This issue seems to be caused by the October 2013 update (KB 2825655) for Excel 2013. Try to remove it or restore the system to an earlier point and check the result.

Excel 2013 PowerPivot add-in crashes
Running into a serious problem with little help on solving the issue. Any time I try doing anything with DAX Excel crashes and gives me the following error:
Please HELP!
Error #1
Excel is running into problems with the 'microsoft office powerpivot for excel 2013' add-in.
If this keeps happening, disable this add-in and check for available updates. Do you want to
disable it now?
Error #2
We couldn't load the PowerPivot add-in. First try Office Repair to fix issue. The error below
should help if that doesn't work.
Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel,
Version=15.0.0.0, Culture=Neutral,
PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c; or one of its dependencies.
The system cannot find the file specified.
Refreshing data is not a problem. Calculated columns and any work with Measures crashes Excel 2013 ProPlus
Things I've tried:
Office Repair; Quick and Online
'Fix It' application; re-install Office 365 ProPlus
Renaming OS.DLL to OS.DLL.Old; Restarting application
Restart computerI tried clean boot, too. That did not seem to fix the issue.
After many failed attempts repairing the issue, I finally figured out something that works.
Start Excel in Safe Mode ( run: excel \safemode)
Alt - F11 (opens VBA editor)
Tools > references
Un-checked the following:
OLE Automation
Microsoft Office 15.0 Object Library
'Save As'
Re-open workbook normal
I've not had the errors reappear. Thoughts are that the workbook was corrupted and the add-in was affected.

Data Model damaged, Cannot connect to Access 2013 from within Excel 2013
Hello,
Recently I am not able to use PowerPivot for Excel 2013 and I cannot connect to my Access 2013 database tables from within Excel 2013. Whenever I try to click on a slicer in my Excel worksheet, it gives me the following error: "Excel was unable to load
a necessary component. This component might have been damaged or deleted. Reinstall the client software or data source driver software for your database."
I am using Microsoft Office Pro Plus 2013 on Windows 7, 64-bit version. I have tried reinstalling Microsoft SQL Compact Edition 2005 and reinstalling Office 2013. I have run out of ideas and am a loss what to do next ?
Can anyone help point in the right direction for a possible solution to this problem ???
Would appreciate all help.
Thank you.

Powerpivot 2013 doesn't work on Excel 2013 / Office 365: data model issue
Hi guys
I recently upgraded my Office 2010 to Office 365, with Excel 2013. Before installing Office 365 I uninstalled Office 2010. I'm running Windows 8 64 bits.
I have the Powerpivot 2013 add-in, I can activate it without any issue. However when I click on "manage" on any spreadsheet (including new empty ones) I have an error "We
couldn't load the Data Model. This may be because the Data Model in this workbook is damaged.", followed by "PowerPivot is unable to load the Data Model".
I tried to repair the installation to no avail. I tried to launch excel in admin mode, nothing better.
This issue seems to be shared by some other people on this forum but
with no satisfactory answer so far.
I had a SQL server 2012 plugin installed previously which I uninstalled as well, but no change.
Would you think of something else?
ThanksHi lourson,

PowerPivot Excel 2013 crashes after column rename in source datatabase
Hello,
Using Windows 8.1, Excel 2013 64Bits, PowerPivot Add-In :
Not using a SQL Server TabularModel just a local Excel Model.
Having 32MB Ram memory.
Readed a table from a SQL Source that contains 13.000.000 records. After loading I discoverd that in the Source one of the columnn names is incorrect. It's name ExecudingProvider and should be ExecutingProvider, so I changed the SQL Server source table and
added the "t" to ExecutingProvider...
Back in PowerPivot I do go to the PowerPivot Data model > Design > Table Properties (not sure of translation using dutch edition but you should be able to find it)
It mentions that it is missing the ExecudingProvider. It;s indeed gone from the Columns that are listed, in place I do see the ExecutingProvider column which is not selected, clicked the checkbox to select the new column name. When clicking Save PowerPivot
starts loading. On reach of 13.000.000 records PowerPivot crashes saying an error has occurred, no real specification on what error and restarts excel automatically.
My work arround for know is to remove the table from the model and add it again, causing to recreate all relation ships. This should not be the case I think.
Do other have this same problem and did you figure out what is going wrong?

Can you share a PowerPivot Model within Excel 2013?
Hi,
Can you share a PowerPivot Model within Excel 2013?
Is it essential that you have either SharePoint or Power BI subscription to share a PowerPivot Model created within Excel 2013?
Kind Regards,
Kieran.
Kieran Patrick Wood http://www.innovativebusinessintelligence.com http://uk.linkedin.com/in/kieranpatrickwood http://kieranwood.wordpress.com/I am afraid you need SharePoint at some point for this scenario
what SharePoint basically does it extracts the datamodel, hosts it on an interanl SSAS Tabular Server and redirects users connections that are initially connecting to the workbook to the SSAS Tabular Server
so the model needs to be hosted somewhere - which is SharePoint with SSAS integration in this scenario
SharePoint online does all this automatically for you
an other option would be to host the model directly on a SSAS Tabular Server and let users connect to the SSAS instance instead of the Power Pivot model - Note that you can simply import your Power Pivot Model to SSAS

Excel 2013 Powerpivot datamodel error with DATE formula
Hello forum users and Excel guru's alike.
I have a question relating the datamodel in Excel 2013 Powerpivot. I am using a Dutch version of Excel (on Office 365) but formula's in Datamodel are all in English so I think most of you will understand the issue:
What I want to do: Take a date and adjust this date to incorparate a number of months that is added in a other column.
Example:
Start of contract date: 24-5-2014 (this is a date field in the datamodel and it is called [StartContract])
Contract duration in months: 10 (this is a number field in the datamodel and it is called [DurationInMonths])
Output: 24-03-2015
(this is the calculated field that doesn't work)
My current formula looks like this:
=DATE(YEAR([StartContract]);MONTH([StartContract]+[DurationInMonths]);DAY([StartContract]))
It shows an error as soon as I hit Enter. The formula works fine when I replace [DurationInMonths] with the value "10" or when I leave out "+[DurationInMonths]". But that isn't an option!
The following variation also doesn't work.
=DATE(YEAR([StartContract]);MONTH([StartContract])+[DurationInMonths];DAY([StartContract]))
Please, is there any one with a solution?
Kind regards,
Erik van HurckHi Tony,
I have tried your solution, to no succes I am sad to say.
I do agree that the formula works in Excel, but now switch over to the
PowerPivot Data model and try the formula there. And it will repport an error:
=DATE(year([StartDate]);month([StartDate]+[DurationInMonths]);DAY([StartDate]))
is the formula I used in the Datamodel.
The DurationInMonths field is:
Whole numbers and formatted as: General
The StartDate is:
Auto (Date) and formatted as: Short Date
For more Information I get this error:
Cannot query internal supporting structures for column "EndDate" because they depend on a column, relationship, or measure that is not processed. please refresh or recalculate the model. Maybe this link will help further:

Could you please disable hiding of status bar text on focus lost.
I use this in Excel 2013, where I select a few cells, then move to another Excel to write the sum of those cells as read from the status bar or to check with other values in the second window. This really makes my life easier and I see no reason to hide
the status bar text when the window looses focus.Hi,
Thanks for your suggestions.
You can also send your feedback to the Office team by the steps as below:
1. Inside any new Office application you’ll see a yellow smiley face in the top-right corner. Click on the face and choose either
Send a Smile to send positive feedback or
Send a Frown to send negative feedback.
2. In the window that appears, provide details about your feedback or issue. Also, be sure to provide a link to this thread.
3. Next, you can choose whether or not to send a screenshot. You can also enter your email address so the Office team can contact you directly if they have any questions.
Note: Most feedback requests do not result in responses from the Office team.
4. Click the Send button at the bottom of the form to send your feedback.

Hello community,
I have an Excel Model that that i have been using fine on Excel 2010 64bit. It uses relatively large amounts of data from different sources via
PowerPivot.(Circa 25 different tables, with different sql queries and results totalling around 800K rows at a time)
The main excel sheet then uses cubevalue functions and measures to retrieve this data.
I upgraded to Excel 2013 32Bit yesterday. On opening the powerpivot within the sheet, i am required to update the powerpivot version, which i do. After updating , i refresh the Powerpivot tables, and return to the main sheet.
The cubevalue functions do return all of their required values, but other formulas in the sheet do not work. Excel gives me the error "Excel rand out of resources while attempting to calculate one or more formulas. As a result, these formulas
cannot be evaluated"
The PC is running a 64bitOS with 16GB ram, windows 7, so i don't think actual memory is the issue.
My second guess was the downgrade from 64bit to 32bit, however a colleague of mine is running a similar PC but with Excel 2010 32bit. The Excel Model works fine on his PC.
I am now lost as to what is wrong. Excel does not even explicitly tell me which formula is causing the issue.
Could it be that the 2013 Excel in general just uses significantly more memory, such that my excel file now cannot run in a 32bit Excel?
Any ideas or help on this would be much appreciated.There do seem to be things in Excel 2013 that use more memory than Excel 2010 (Excel tables for example).
If you are using PowerPivot then most people recommend 64-bit Excel
