I need some help with drill through. I have a main dashboard with high level aggregated data. I need to drill through to a details report I have created with more granular data. The chart type I have used in the dashboard is a CARD, to which it should drill down from. Only thing is when I right click it does not give the drill option. I have added the relevant field into the details report but still no rightclick --> drill through. Any advice would be great. Could this be a limitation with Power BI?
I agree that it's poor form not to have this sort of functionality. I've tried multiple workarounds, using other visualisations without success. The only thing that i can get to work is to have the card, and overlay a button on top of it (making sure that the button is transparent), which links to a bookmark on that page that i want to 'drill through' to.
I would change from the Card visual to a Table visual. After setting the Format properties you can achieve a similar look to a Card. And if you are show the right fields, then you can right-click and drill down.

I am a new Tableau user. I have a concept to create one-page dashboard as summary page which contains two main windows. First window is fixed, displaying general information by pie chart. Second window (below) is dynamic, displaying detailed information of clicked pie chart. Every pie chart has different format/ layout of detailed information. Could I visualize the concept using Tableau. Please enlighten me
Yes you can. This is Tableau's bread and butter. Click an item in the dashboard and everything else can be filtered to that item. Look at Dashboard Actions to accomplish this.
I have lot many data sources, dashboards and worksheets in one workbook, There are couple of filters on one dashboards, I want to know from dashboard which filter belongs to which worksheet or where this filter exactly belongs to ?
As well please share how to create Global filters and when they are used?
When looking at a dashboard in Desktop, you can click on a worksheet which will select the worksheet and you'll see four icons pop up (usually in top right corner, sometimes top left corner). The last icon is a downward triangle. Click it and you'll see a long menu with options such as Go To Sheet, Duplicate, and Fit. One option is labeled Filters. Click Filters and it opens a submenu of all filterable fields on the worksheet. If a field is being used as a filter in the dashboard, it will show a checkmark next to the field name.
Note that this is an easy way to add and remove filters from a dashboard. But in your case, you are using it to figure out which worksheet is doing the filtering.
Be aware that dashboards can have filter actions so sometimes worksheets will cascade the filter values to other worksheets on the dashboard.
I want to make a report in cognos.I put chart in my report. And when I run the report , if I right click on chart I see the download chart option. I want to this option(download chart) on my report. I mean I dont want to need right click on chart.I want to see a button which when I click on it I download the chart.
Thanks.
There isn't a built-in button within report studio for this. You will need to insert a button in an html item, if your consumers are running IE you can use
document.execCommand('SaveAs','true','http://chartsfilename.jpg')
as the javascript for it to run. You will also need a way to dynamically derive the chart's url. I would imagine you'll need some javascript for this, without having an environment to test on currently I would point you to http://www.ironsidegroup.com/2011/09/27/ibm-cognos-and-javascript-%E2%80%93-part-ii/
I developed a Sitecore control I'd like to put into a layout on one page.
In this case it's a registration page, and my control is defined as a sublayout.
What I did is went into the Page Editor interface, and plonked the control into one of the placeholders.
What I want to do now is to create a package only containing the information that this control is on this particular page, without affecting e.g. the content or subitems of this node.
Can you please advise on the best way to create such packag, what exactly to select in the Package Designer?
Thanks
I don't believe the Package Designer gives you granular control to include just specific fields of an item. You need to add the item as whole.
You should configure layouts and renderings in the presentation details of an item OR even better in the __Standard Values of the template.
You can call the presentation details dialog through the content editor. Just select an item in the content tree, click on the Presentation tab in the top ribbon and select Details. You can configure all layouts/renderings for the selected item here.
But ff you want to prevent content changes you really SHOULD configure the presentation in the __Standard Values of the template. This is also the way, which is recommended by Sitecore. If you do this, the layouts are all you have to put into a package.
I would like to build a report that starts at the bottom of a page and grows upwards instead of a report that starts at the top of the page and grows downwards. How could I do this?
--Edit--
For clarification, below is an image depicting the way I need to construct the report.
Basically, I'm looking for a way to have the whitespace at the top of the page and the data at the bottom of the page, instead of the more traditional look of data at the top of the page and whitespace at the bottom of the page.
Without knowing much about what the request is, I don't believe there is a way for the report to run from the bottom up, but you could possibly do a couple things to fake the system out.
For example you can do something like in the following link to put your summaries in the header:
Crystal Reports: global variable running total not displaying in header
Then you can play with the sorting of the details if you need the rows to go in decending order.
Hope this helps.
[EDIT] I see you updated your question so I'll add an update to my answer.
One more thing you can try out is to play around with the Print at the Bottom of the Page and Keep Together properties of the sections. I haven't tried this, but one thing you may be able to do is put the section at the bottom of the page and perhaps find a way to have the section grow from there. You will have an issue if the page goes to another page and though it seems possible in my head that the section could grow while being placed at the bottom of the page I haven't tried it so it might not work. I am just throwing it out there for one more thing you can try. Hope this helps.
You could try:
Create an empty report with your headers and related text
Put a subreport displaying your data in the report footer and set the sort order for the subreport query to descending.
In the report footer properties, select Print at bottom of page
I tried it with some sample data and it works, but I'm not sure what will happen if your data goes to two pages.
