Need help with drillthrough
- 8 months ago
Hi DarshanKumar ,
Thank you for your clarification of the data model. Great to hear it that you are doing it in the scalable standard way. In order to show the entire headcount for the all the companies while you are using drill through, I recommend you to create a disconnected table for the field you use in the visual. I am demonstrating this using my own headcount dashboard and use the department data to demonstrate the solution. First you can create a disconnected department table like below:
Drill_Department_Selector = VALUES('EmployeeFact'[Department])Then, you can use the keep this dimension table disconnected from your fact table calculating the headcount.
Then, instead of using the department field from your fact or related dimension table, use the disconnected department field from the table.
Headcount measure, as you know can be flexibly written like below:
Headcount = SUMX ( EmployeeFact, IF ( EmployeeFact[Start] <= [SelectedDate] && EmployeeFact[End] >= [SelectedDate], 1, BLANK () ) )But using the disconnected department field with this headcount measure will show all the unfiltered data, so wrap up this measure in a treatas related measure like below:
Headcount disconnected = CALCULATE([Headcount], TREATAS(VALUES('Drill_Department_Selector'[Department]), 'EmployeeFact'[Department]))The 1st page will look like above. Then you can add the usual headcount measure without treat as fixing and department with related dimension or directly from the fact table, and in the 2nd table showing the filtered data, you can add a measure like below and set the value to 1 and apply to get the appropriate filtering.
IsSelectedDepartment = VAR TargetDept = SELECTEDVALUE('Drill_Department_Selector'[Department]) VAR CurrentRowDept = SELECTEDVALUE('EmployeeFact'[Department]) RETURN IF( ISBLANK(TargetDept) || TargetDept = CurrentRowDept, 1, 0 )I hope this has addressed your issue. I am attaching an example pbix file for your reference.
Best regards,
Hi DarshanKumar ,
When you refer that you want to show the entire companyin the drill trough do you mean you want to drill dow to org level and then be able to show the entire company information based on a button for example? Or do you want to have two visuals one that shows company and other the org level?

MFelix Thanks for your response.
When I drill down by org level it shows the data of that org level, what I want is in the same drillthrough page to also show the data of entire company.
Ex:
Company HC - 1960
Exco-1 HC - 280
Im able to see the 280 colleagues data in drill through page when I drillthrough but I also want to find a way to show the details of the 1960 colleagues data in the same drillthrough page.
Regards,
Darshan

Hi DarshanKumar ,
I assume that you want to start by checking the org information and the make a way to clear the filters of the org and return all of the information.
I have done a similar UX based on a bookmark button that would clear the data filter of the drill trough.
On the drill trough page be sure that you do not have any filters applied of the drill trough, you can do it by clearing all the filters that show on the filter pane:
No create a bookmark and be sure to leave the Data option on:
Add a button with the bookmark on that page then give it the proper name.
Now when you drill trough you can click that button and just clear the data:

MFelix in the filter pane of the drillthrough page, I have also added a condition "Measue=1" clearing the filters will result in HC numbers not being correct.
