PIVOT - Reference a cell outside the table for report filtering

T

Tim Miller

Is there any way to do this? Thinking of a Pivot table where I can drop
fields into the "Report Filter" area. Then you can use the drop down next
to the field to filter the data. I'm wondering if there is some way to
instead have that field look to a cell outside of the pivot table (but still
part of the workbook) to filter the field, and therefore the table, based
on.

In this case, I have multiple data sources coming to the workbook, each
diplaying as a pivot table. But they all do share a common field. Rather
than have the user go filter each of 3 or 4 tables, I'd love if I could have
them simply type the data in a single cell somewhere, and have that filter
this field in all 3 or 4 tables.
