So I am trying to extract all of the totals for each element of a pivot table. I don't normally use PTs and this one is not mine. I need to compare each total to my data to see if I agree with the results of the PT.

this is the formula that I have:

Code:
=L5-GETPIVOTDATA("[Measures].[Sum of Current ITD Amount]",$A$5,"[USSGL_LU].[USSGL]","[USSGL_LU].[USSGL].&[101000]")

I am sure it is something that I am just not seeing.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks,

Convert text numbers to real numbers
Select a column containing text numbers. Press Alt+D E F to quickly convert text to numbers. Faster than "Convert to Number"

Nevermind. My caffeine caught up with my brain.

For others looking for the solution, simply right a formula to reference the required cell. In the example I gave above the cell to be referenced was B6. so =B6 will return the value shown there. =L5-B6 is the formula I wanted and it is a dynamic reference.

thanks all,
