There are different things you can do. Fields can be dragged if you open the field list settings. You can also add and remove fields. You can specify which fields you want as row, column and data elements. You can start a pivot table from the beginning and re-arrange what way you want to see the fields. It will also depend on the version of Excel you have as there are improvements in the more recent versions.
