# Formatting Pivot Tables

You can format pivot tables cells using specific cell styles.

Direct formatting of pivot tables cells is lost when updating or editing the table.

When creating a pivot table, six new cell styles are added to your document. Format each cell style as needed. The customization of the pivot cell styles will be preserved when updating the pivot table.

By using cell styles for pivot table formatting, all pivot tables cells in the spreadsheet document will have the same look. In other words, the pivot table cell styles apply to all pivot tables of the document.

The six cell styles are:

- Pivot Table Categories

- Pivot Table Corner

- Pivot Table Field

- Pivot Table Result

- Pivot Table Value

- Pivot Table Title

The number format of these cell styles cannot be changed in the cell style itself; you must format it in the data source.
