The original .ods format of file has pivot table.

Once the file is resaved in .xlsx format, the pivot table is gone.

Confirm in 7.5 and it looks like a dupe of bug 123225

I'd treat this separately from bug 123225, that one's about the behavior in Excel after saving as XLSX, while this is about the behavior in Calc. Ideally both should be fixed, but I doubt fixing one of the two will fix the other as well.

Plus the bugdoc in 123225, attachment 149532 [details], doesn't exhibit this issue.

Seems it has something to do with the option for:
'Vehicle name' – Options – Show Automatically
Source ODS has it set up to 5
Recreating the PT with LibO 7.6.1, keeps the PT but without respect the option.
