After a VBA macro run (runs every 1min) the macro stops and leaves me on a tab(one that I specified in the VBA code, call it "SummaryPage") but instead of being at cell A1(upper left corner) I'm many cells & columns off in blank cell space. If I select another tab then select the tab "SummaryPage" it places cell A1 in upper left corner.

When the code starts I save the name of the sheet I'm on
Currentsheet = ActiveSheet.Name 'this is sheet I'm currently on

The last lines of code
Sheets(Currentsheet).Select
Application.GoTo reference:=Range("A1"), scroll:=True
Range("a1").Select
Currentsheetcell.Activate
 

Excel Facts

Best way to learn Power Query?
Read M is for (Data) Monkey book by Ken Puls and Miguel Escobar. It is the complete guide to Power Query.
Do you have events or other kinds of updates turned off in the rest of the code?

It seems like if you have
VBA Code:
Currentsheet = ActiveSheet

you could use:
VBA Code:
Application.Events = True
Currentsheet.Activate
Currentsheet.Range("A1").select

The very last line of code that you have shown is
Rich (BB code):
Currentsheetcell.Activate
.. but you have not shown or told us how Currentsheetcell is defined or populated.



Sheets(Currentsheet).Select
Application.GoTo reference:=Range("A1"), scroll:=True
Range("a1").Select
Instead of those three lines all you should need is
VBA Code:
 Application.GoTo reference:=Sheets(Currentsheet).Range("A1"), scroll:=True

Solution
Rich (BB code):
    Currentsheet = ActiveSheet.Name                     'this is sheet I'm currently on
    Set Currentsheetcell = ActiveCell
