When you click a column label in a pivot table and type something, then all occurences of that label will have the new value.
Even after a data refresh.

Is it possible to check which labels have been overwritten?
Is it possible to reset all values of the labels to the ones in the linked database?
Is it possible to block this 'feature'? I can't think of any valid reason why anyone should be able to change the values reported from the database in a pivot table?
 

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
