Drill Down In Excel -- I Know What Drill Through Is!!
Oct 28, 2005Can anyone help me with this?
This is my problem:
I have a cube that I created in AS2005, I have a hierarchy and drillthrough action defined. When I create a pivot table in Excel based on that cube and I try to drill down on the cell in the pivot table I can not drill down to the next level. I get an error message: Cannot show or hide detail for
this selection. My hierarchy is based on Dimension Facility. Facility State is root level, facility zip is next level. When I'm in AS2005 and browse the cube, I'm able to drill down and drill through and see the hierarchy just fine. (Also, I find interesting that when I create a cube in excel, based on a two relational tables, I'm able to drill down. ) I have the Analsysis Services Add-on installed on my machine, so I have the Cube Analysis Menu item. But I can't seem to even drill-through. So, for now all I want to know is why can't I drill-down (i.e. double clicking on a cell and having the data related "explode" in the spread sheet) like it shows in the article written by William Pearson, titled September 12, 2005
Introduction to MSSQL Server Analysis Services: Reporting Options for Analysis Services Cubes: MS Excel 2003 and More. Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Drill Down
Jun 22, 2005hi Guys
I want to allow users to have the ability to drilldown. But it doesn't seem possible outside AS ? am I wrong ? As I have built a cube with drilldown enabled and have tested and is working within AS. However after I've opened it up in excel I and tried to drill down it wasn't actually possible. I could only increase / decrease the report's hierachy and that was all.
Anyone know how I can allow my clients to view drill down values ?
any help is appreciated :)

Drill Down Performance
Sep 25, 2007I was wondering if when you click on the + in a drill down report, does the report requery the database, or is the report just re-rendered without having to query again?
depending on the answer, performance considerations would be different.
Drill Down In Table
May 2, 2007Hi,
I have created a drill down using a table. The drill down has 13 levels in it which causes a big vacant space between the top level and the mesures on the right hand side. I would like to hide the columns so that when i drill down the measure columns should dynamically move towards the right (as i keep on going to the next level) . I have tried using inscope for hiding that particular column by refering to the previous level group in it but it doesn't seem to be working.
Kindly suggest if anyone has done this before.
Regards,
Vikram

Drill Down Slow
Aug 13, 2007
Hello everyone
For starters i'm using Microsoft analysis services, integration services and reporting services.
All goes well when creating some general overview reports.
Once i get to making drill down reports with only 2000 rows of data is already starts to work very slow (sometimes takes hours). It seems a data cube is only fast for calculations like SUM, PARALLELPERIOD, ... but if it comes to amount of data it is extreemly weak! 2000 rows is not even alot, i've seen reporting tools beeing able to handle a million rows with drill down function.
I'm thinking that this microsoft tool is just not able to handle reports bigger than 100 rows in it combined with drill down. Please proof me wrong because we already paid for the microsoft tools and it would be a shame if we were not able to use them because of bad functionality...
The machine we work on is quite strong (dual core 2.4 ghz, 4 gig ram, ...)
And yes i know you can make reports clickable so they take the value with them to a next report as a parameters but thats not what we are looking for, we need this drill down to work properly with larger amounts of data.

Drill Through For Visualization Control
Nov 3, 2006Is there a way to get the Drill through to work with model viewer controls? Any workaround?
Also, where would I find more complex data mining models for review? SQLServerDataMining site, Microsoft data mining tutorial site, and Data Mining with SQL 2005 book, all checked. Anything else?

Drill Through Works Eradically
Feb 1, 2007I've got a report that drills through to itself, passing different parameters when drilling through. The report work flawlessly in development, flawlessly when you call the report server directly via url, but doesn't always drill through correctly when the report is called using the report viewer on web site. I've gone as far as to create a single aspx page web site that only has this report on it and it still doesn't work.
The drill through works about 1/2 of the time when viewing through the report viewer. But the other half of the time it takes you back to a previously visited parameter, instead of the parameter you clicked on.
So a series of clicks might work like this:
Parameter Clicked - Resultant page
A - Correct "A" page
B - Correct "B" page
C - Correct "C" page
D - Incorrectly taken to "B" page.
It seems to be worse if you throw in any click of the back button.
We thought at first it might be a parameter caching issue, but we turned off all caching and even created a time-stamp parameter to force no caching.
Any thoughts are appreciated.

How Are The Drill Details Determined?
Apr 4, 2007Hello - I am using report builder against models.
Which attributes or properties determine what is shown when you do click/drill into the details? I'm using the adventure works database as my guide and expected the (default,Identifying or Aggregate ) attributes to control it, can you summarize how the drill details are determined? My test from adventure works sample:
Pull Territory Name and #customers into the report
Run it and drill into the details on one of the #customers
It returns Acct#, CustType, CustName, #SalesOrders, Sum of a bunch of sales order fields and # customer addresses.
The first three are the default attributes for a customer and the last sets look to be the default aggregates for the other relations to customer - Sales Order & Address.
Is it safe to say that it pulls in the default attributes of the immediate child and then aggregates of it's children? Does it go recursively?
Thanks in advance,
Toni
Matrix Drill Through Problem
Jul 6, 2007So here goes the explnation. The problem is specifying an all parameter in a drill through on the value cell of a matrix for the columns in the matrix that are not expanded.
Here goes the example
Matrix for sales.
Region | Shop | Number of sales. And then financial period would be at the top. Everything is collapsed on load so it looks something like this.
Region1 | | 50
Region2 | | 75
Then you expand Region.
Region1 | Shop1 | 30
Region1 | Shop2 | 20
Region2| | 75
At this point if you click on the 30 for shop 1 is drills through into another report passing parameter Region1, shop1 and financial period. This is perfect. The problem comes in that if you haven't expanded region1 and you click on the 50 it drills into the other report but passes through Shop1 as the shop parameter. How can I get this to pass though an all option for the unexpanded columns in the matrix. This is ofcourse just an example and my matrix has quite a few more column and stuff.
Please guys, any help would be appreciated.

Drill Down In Multi-value Parameters
Jul 21, 2006Hi,
can anybody tell me if it is possible in RS2005 to create a multi-value parameter in wich it is possibility to drill down? Say i want to use a multi-value parameter to show data for one or more specific years or months. Then the multivalue parameter would contain a list of years, with a + sign next to them, making it possible to drill down to the specific months.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Drill Down Interactive MDX Query
Sep 17, 2007Hi,
I am new to reporting services. We are creating a report with drill-down capability. We have a Date dimension hierarchy defined as Year - Month - Day.
On the report, we expect reporting services send MDX query to SSAS to get the total sales just for the the year, say 2007, when we click the year 2007. Then it send query just to aggregate sales for that month when we click a month.
But when we build the reports, it looks like it always aggregate for all levels. So the performance is bad to first open the report.
How do I resolve this issue? Please help.
Thanks,
Jia
How Can I Print What I See After I Expand A Drill Down?
Jun 14, 2007I've created a report with drill downs that are hidden initially. While viewing the report in preview, I'll expand the drill down to see the data.
If I go and print the report, the report is printed as collapsed (which is the initial setting) rather than expanded (which i expanded in the preview).
Is there a way to print in the "what-you-see-is-what-you-get" kinda way expanding and collapsing drill downs?
Thanks in advance!

Drill Down In A Matrix Report
Jan 8, 2007is it possible to have drill down feature in matrix report?

y 2 2 2
z 4 0 7
What would be nice is if the user clicked on "7" and a report opened showing the detail for that value.
Drill Through Doesn't Work.
Feb 7, 2007I have a drill through that passes four parameters. Three are passed from the current selections in that reports parameters and the fourth needs to be the customer name they click on in the body of the report so it's passed as Fields!fieldname.Value. When I click on the customer name, the drillthough fires but the report simply doesn't load. If I remove the parameter from the field clicked on and just pass the three parameters, it goes to the drill through correctly and that fourth parameter just sets to the default for that parameter in that report.
I can then simply check that parameter and select the value from the list that is exactly the same as the value I was attempting to pass it in the drill through and report refreshes correctly.
Whatever it is, is something in the manner that the value is passed in the drill through specifically.
Any ideas?
Creating A Drill-through Report
Sep 21, 2007
I'm building my report using the Report Designer in the SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio. At the moment I've got a single report which consists of 2 tables. The top table shows some summary data and the bottom table shows more detail.
What I'd like to do is design the report so that when the summary data (in the top table) appears, the user can click on a row in the table and this takes them to a new screen which shows more detail about that item, extracted from the bottom table.
Is this possible? I know it's possible to create a drill-through report if you have the high-level summary data in one report and the low-level detailed data in a separate report, but is it possible to create a drill-through report if all the data is in one single report (albeit in 2 separate tables)?

Drill Down Caching Problem
Aug 28, 2007Hello,
I have a report which is being cached at the report server level. After the cache expires I use the Null Delievery Method to repopulate cache for faster report viewing. The report has two parameters Brand and Region. Say for eg for a Particular brand A there are two geographies North and South then at a given time the drill down in the report only works for one of the parameters i.e either North or South. For the other the results are erratic i.e half of the rows are not shown or the drill down doesnt work at all. Initially i thought that this was a known issue so installed SP1 to solve but the problem is still there. The report works Flawlessly if run without Caching. This problem only occurs when i turn on the Caching.
Does anyone know the solution to this problem as this is becoming sort of a roadblock.
Thanks,
Vikram

Missing Parameter Value After Drill-through
Feb 5, 2008
Hi Friends,
I have a problem concerning parameters on subreports.
My main report contains a list of meetings. You can click on any meeting name for a drill-through to get a detailed subreport of that meeting.
Now I wanna give the user the possibility to enter some parameter values for that subreport, before the subreport opens.
But I get an error message that my parameter value (for the subreport) is missing.
The funny things is, that when I open the main-report in Visual Studio everthing works fine. I drill-through to the subreport and I'm asked to enter a parameter value (parameter pane) for the subreport which shows up right after that.
I also tried to build a work-around by adding the parameters for the subreport in the mainreport and passing them.
This worked, but when the subreport shows up the parameter pane is always faded out, so that the user can't see which parameter value is used or can't change it. Is there a possibility to always have the parameter pane "on"?
Thanks in advance for your support
