Description Kana Masai 2021-02-18 15:09:08 UTC
Description:
1) Pivot table function replaced the case (upper/lower) of the original cell data.
2) Pivot table function took the first value of the original data and replaced it with all subsequent data which was similar (ignoring case sensitivity).

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Fill in 2 columns of data (my example is provided below) into LibreOffice-CALC

Num	Values
X1	aaabbb123
X2	aaabbB123
X3	aaabBB123
X4	aaaBBB123
X5	aaABBB123
X6	aAABBB123

2. Select cells A1:B7
3. Insert > Pivot Table
4. Selection = Current Selection
5. Select the available fields (Num, Values) into Row Fields

The Pivot table is now created.
The results are as displayed in Actual Results (below) 

Actual Results:
Below is the actual result. The Pivot Table has changed the case of the original data. My values are case-sensitive; 
thus aaabbb123 ≠ aaabbB123 ≠ aaabBB123 ≠ aaaBBB123  ... etc

=================
Num	Values
X1	aaabbb123	
X2	aaabbb123	
X3	aaabbb123	
X4	aaabbb123	
X5	aaabbb123	
X6	aaabbb123	
	


Expected Results:
The expected result ( should be the same as the original data)

Num	Values
X1	aaabbb123
X2	aaabbB123
X3	aaabBB123
X4	aaaBBB123
X5	aaABBB123
X6	aAABBB123

My values are case-sensitive; 
thus aaabbb123 ≠ aaabbB123 ≠ aaabBB123 ≠ aaaBBB123  ... etc

LibreOffice-CALC 
Pivot Table function should have preserved the values (case sensitivity ) of my original data.

The pivot function has removed the case sensitivity from the raw data.

Dear Kana Masai,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword


Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team
