On Error GoTo 0
If PvtTbl Is Nothing Then

Set PvtTbl = shtReport.PivotTables.Add(PivotCache:=PvtCache, TableDestination:=Worksheets("Invoice Data").Range("Y1"), TableName:="PivotTable1a")
With PvtTbl.PivotFields("Director")
.Orientation = xlRowField
.Position = 1
End With
With PvtTbl.PivotFields("Manager")
.Orientation = xlRowField
.Position = 2
End With
With PvtTbl.PivotFields("Owner")
.Orientation = xlRowField
.Position = 3
End With
With PvtTbl.PivotFields("Account Name")
.Orientation = xlRowField
.Position = 4
End With
With PvtTbl.PivotFields("Business Name")
.Orientation = xlRowField
.Position = 5

PvtTbl.AddDataField PvtTbl.PivotFields("Annual Aggregate Volume"), _
"Sum of Annual Aggregate Volume", xlSum
With PvtTbl.PivotFields("Sum of Annual Aggregate Volume")
.NumberFormat = "#,##0"
End With

' just refresh the Pivot cache with the updated Range
