Default GetPivotData refer to external cell

When using GetPivotData in new format (field-name pairs) I can't use as a
reference for a name the cell that is NOT WITHIN pivot table.
Let's say I have pivot table in range A1:C4. Then
GetPivotData("Total",$A$1,"Department",A3) is valid reference, but
GetPivotData("Total",$A$1,"Department",A44) is invalid...
I saw in couple of places (even http://www.contextures.com/xlPivot06.html )
suggestion to use external (to pivot) cell in the formula, but it looks like
GetPivotData can take only cells INSIDE pivot area as reference.
Am I wrong? Please, say I am...
