Workbook A pulls data from Workbook B, which can't be tinkered with too much as it feeds the bosses workbook C.
To get the data in a form that is useful to workbook A I had to create some summary Pivot tables in workbook B.
=iferror(getpivotdata(blah,blah,blah,blah)
When these refresh, all the links in workbook A break and the cells give #ref error.
This takes ages to fix each time and my only workaround will be to manually copy the pivots data and paste as values into a new sheet in Workbook A from time to time, using that sheet as the lookup.
Am I overlooking something simple as a fix or could I be approaching this differently?
