Title: Drill Through in Chart
Post by: 10608189 on 04 Aug 2014 04:34:55 AM
I gave a Drill THrough definition to a combination chart which is the same given to a list,
the values is been passed to child Report correctly in List but not in Chart for two parameters to which i am passing as Dataitem Value, in both List and Chart


Please Clarify why this issue occurs

It's not possible to give you an accurate answer without either being there next to you to see how your definitions are defined, or you giving us details of exactly how they are set up. I'd suggest the latter is probably easiest :)

Are the reports based on the same package or on different packages? Is/are the package(s) relational or dimensional? How are the parameter filters defined onthe child report? Are the values you are passing displayed in both the list report and the chart report? Are the drill-through definitions defined to be exactly the same across both source reports?

A good way of debugging is to make the filters optional (temporarily) on the child report, and add layout calculations to the page header in the child report to display the contents of each of your parameters. In that way, when you attempt the drillthrough, you can see exactly what values are being passed.

Cheers!
