What is the difference between drill down and drill through?
Answer Posted / jim benjamin
Drill down/up is active when you have an OLAP data source
(cube or DMR) so you can drill up and down the hierarchy of
data. If your top level is a corporate organization you can
drill down to the department level and then to the employee
level if the hierarchy is setup in the cube. You can also
drill up from employee to dept to corp levels.
In a drill through you run another report by passing
parameters or data items from the host report used as
filters in the target report.
