Remarks

RefreshOnOpen is false by default.

When creating or modifying a PivotTable with ExcelWriter, make sure to set this property to see the changes. If this property is not set in code or in a template, the PivotTable will not reflect changes made with ExcelWriter code.

Setting RefreshOnOpen is the same as going to PivotTable Options > Data and checking or unchecking Refresh data when opening the file.
