Report Studio

Specifying the Drill-through Text

 

You can specify the drill-through text that appears when users can drill through to more than one target. For example, if users from different regions view the report, you can show text in a different language for each region.

To specify the drill-through text:

  1. Right-click the drill-through object and click Drill Throughs.
  2. If more than one drill-through exists for the object, in the Drill Throughs box, click a drill through.
  3. Click the Label tab.
  4. To link the label to a condition, in the Condition box, do the following:
  5. Click Variable, and click an existing variable or create a new one.
  6. Click Values, and click one of the variable’s possible values.
  1. In the Source type drop-down list, click the source type you want to use.
  2. If the source type is Text, click the ellipses (...) beside the Text box and type the text you want.
  3. If the source type is Data Item Value or Data Item Label, click Data Item, and click a data item.
  4. If the source type is Report Expression, click the ellipses (...) beside the Report Expression box and define the expression.
  5. If the label is linked to a condition, repeat steps 5 to 8 for the remaining possible values.

When users run the parent report and click a drill-through link, the Go to page appears. The drill-through text you specified appears for each target. If you did not specify the drill-through text for a target, the drill-through name is used.
