Drill on Objects on the Page-By Axis

If report objects have been placed on the Page-by axis, you can drill on attributes or compound metrics on the Page-by axis. The Page-by axis appears above the report. For an introduction to page-by and an image showing what the Page-by axis looks like, see Group Data by Page: Page-By.

To Drill on an Page-By Object

  1. Click the name of a report to execute it. The report must be in either Grid view or Grid and Graph view.
  2. In the Page-by area, right-click the attribute or metric to drill from, point to Drill, and select a drill path. A new report containing the drilled data is executed and displayed.
    • When you drill on an attribute, the drilled-to attribute displays in the Page-by area of the new report, replacing the original attribute. The attribute element you drilled from is added to the report filter.
    • For example, a report is paged by Region, with Central selected. Drill from Region in the Page-by area to Call Center. The new report is paged by Call Center. Only call centers in the Central region display in the Call Center drop-down list in the Page-by area, because the report is filtered for the Central region.

    • When you drill on a compound metric, the drilled-to metric displays in the Metrics drop-down list in the Page-by area of the new report. It replaces the metric that you drilled from.
  3. To return to the original report results, click Back Back button in the navigation bar above the report.

Clicking the Back button on your browser does not return you to the original report results.
