The information “The pivot table must be based on an external source data that contains data hierarchies.” was published for the dialogue “Data field options”. https://help.libreoffice.org/6.2/en-US/text/scalc/01/12090106.html How do you think about to add a link for a helpful description in a corresponding document?

Olivier made a mistake in providing the link. His commit adding the note is https://git.libreoffice.org/help/commit/327d999641b54d40d8f939a09ab79f37b4a9fc32
(In reply to Olivier Hallot from comment #5) Would you like to point any more information sources out for the safe application of pivot table data source extensions?
