Suppose you have a table of data of flight ticket sales record like this,

and someone asks you "Hey, how did Antonio do this week? How much did he sell from each airline?"

For example, you can let Pivottable sums up all the selling prices per agent, per airline, and arrange agents on the row, airline on the column, then you automatically have the desired data summary on Antonio's row.

Taking a closer look, the number in each cell comes from summing up the values of all price entries of given agent and airline:
