OLAP drill through (more than 1000 rows)

Hi all,

i know there are several thread about this topic but still the solution suggested does not work for me.

I have a PQ / Power Pivot model which uses as main sources other excel file in which i have the transactions DB (fct) and the supporting tables (dim). 

If a create a pivot table using as source the datamodel i am able to retrieve only the first 1000 rows (the function is greyed out)

is there a solution?

thanks for the support

Luca

Hi @LucaA ,

Not sure what you tried so far. See if this can help you:

Connections > "ThisWorkbookDataModel" > Properties > "Max. number of records to retrieve" should not be greyed out here.

Dear @Payeras_BI ,

My problem is that even if the datamodel works perfectly, if i open "Connection" window i am not able to see any connection and i dont know how to make it appear again. I saw online this is a common problem, i would like to understand how to make "Thisworkbookdatamodel" connection appear again. Once it appears your solution works but my problem is at a previous step.

do you have any idea?

thanks

Luca
