Hello,

I am sorry if i selected the wrong section.

Please see screenshoot below

@umairarshad 

The month in formula is always "Apr". You should change it to the cell name.

I am unable to do.

 

Can you please correct? I am pasting the formula.

 

=GETPIVOTDATA("[Measures].[Count of Downtime]",$O$18,"[Downtime].[Station]","[Downtime].[Station].&[ISB]","[MTBF Available Time].[Month]","[MTBF Available Time].[Month].&[Apr]")

pls try this

 

=GETPIVOTDATA("[Measures].[Count of Downtime]",$O$18,"[Downtime].[Station]","[Downtime].[Station].&[ISB]","[MTBF Available Time].[Month]","[MTBF Available Time].[Month].&["&P19&"]")
