Predefined drill-down path specifies the meaningful sequence might by useful for further drill-down operation in report (see attached video tutorial below). Each data set can contain more drill-down paths. The simplest drill-down path is linear, however BellaDati supports more complex structures like trees.

Predefined drill-down paths are available int the report when performing ad-hoc drill-down (by clicking on + in the table), or in the drill-down settings.



  1. Go to desired data set via data set menu.
  2. Select "Attributes" in the left submenu.

Predefined drill-down paths significantly simplifies creating reports by analysts and performing drill-down operation in reports and on dashboards. Therefore we recommend defining these paths on the data set level.

Adding new drill-down path

  1. Click "Add drill down path" at the top of the page. A popup will appear.
  2. Select first attribute in "Use attribute" drop-down box and click on "Save" button.
  3. Drill-down path can be also defined by formula. The formula has to return either list of values or map of value/caption. 
  4. When using formula, you can allow "Reset context with current value". That will reset current selected classifiers and will replace them with current value. 
  5. Click the green plus icon on the right of existing attribute in drill-down path to add another attribute and repeat steps above to create whole drill-down path.

By clicking on green plus icon in the middle of existing drill-down path, you can branch out current drill-down path to more sub-paths.



You can create an new attribute during drill-down path definition by filling in the field "Add new attribute" in the popup. See managing attributes for details.
