I am trying to use get pivot data with variable criteria
 

I have a presentation report which uses the getpivotdata function to retrieve
information from a pivot table of vendor transactions. I need to be able to
run the report for each vendor individually, but I do not want to set up a
separate report for each of them. I have tried using various other functions
within getpivotdata( eg cell(),concatenate(),cell reference instead of text),
none of them work. It seems to only accept specific text. Is there a way
around thisplease?

You can use cell references in the formula. There's an example he
