What is the difference between drill down and drill through?

Answer Posted / bash khan

Actually I found 4 different types of drilling mode.

Drill Down - When you move from summary level to detail
level in the same report and in the same hierarchy.

Drill Up - When you move back from detail level to summary
level in the same report and in the same hierarchy.

Drill Across - When you need to move from one hierarchy to
another.

Drill Through - When you need to get additional detail
data from the Database or from any other report.
