I have been trying to put the formula into a text box
=GETPIVOTDATA("AMOUNT",Data!$A$3)

But following error is showing

This formula is missing a range refrence or a defined name
 

Excel Facts

Pivot Table Drill Down
Double-click any number in a pivot table to create a new report showing all detail rows that make up that number
You are missing pivot table range reference as the third argument

You are trying to retrieve "AMOUNT" field from PIVOTTABLEDATA in the Data sheet!A3, but I think there is a problem like there is no table named Data, Make sure pivottabledata should be in the same sheet or workbook.
