My problem is as follows I made two pages of the portal; in the first page i have two reports and from one of these i would like to communicate in some way (i.e drill- through?) with the second page that contains four reports (prompt value [product] and three chart [sales revenue, sales quantity and budget]). Particularly I would like to communicate with the report that contains the prompt, passing the Product. How can i drill from the first page of the portal to the second page ? More generally, is it possible to move from one page, containing 2 report, to another page with 4 report, through a drill-through or any other mechanism? Thank in advance.

I would like you to share your experience during interviews, project explanation, on the job etc. I am preparing for the interviews and am quite nervous about cracking it.
