    Question Formula needs to pick up total in PivotT when new data is added? (Doesnt know to change)

    How can I have a formula reference the total of a pivot table when the data changes?

    Right now if I add data, the formula I am using is just referencing a specific cell and doesn't adapt to the changes.'

    Thank you

    JCarollo765:
    Few ways to do this come to mind:
    Name the range containing and overlapping the total. Do a MAX formula to pick out the largest value, likely the total.

    Another way: Create a SUMIF function, referring to a unique label you created in an adjacent column. That can pick up the total from a moving target.
