Hi All,
I do not see the drill through option on any of my reports. I have a report with multiple pages. I have a Page (this page has multiple graphs that use different datasets, however this one scenario is related a graph that shows the counts by week). The other tab has the counts by each day . I have the same dataset ( direct query) . I have the same filters on both the tabs (year and weekofyear). The main report has the "crossreport" turned off, the target report has the "crossreport" turned on. I added the (year and weekofyear to the drillthorugh fields on the target tab). On both the tabs in option>currentfile>reportsettings i checked the crossreport box. I went through many links posted here, i downloaded the latest version and still i cannot see the drillthrough option. Please advice.
Thanks

Hi @Anonymous ,
By my test with the latest version of Power BI desktop, I cannot reproduce your issue.
Here is my test output.
You could refer to my test pbix which has been attached.
If you still need help, please share a dummy pbix file which can reproduce the issue, so that we can help further investigate on it? You can upload it to OneDrive and post the link here. Do mask sensitive data before uploading.
Best Regards,
Cherry

on my one drive online i have other sensitive stuff. is there another way i can share the report?
Hi @Anonymous ,
Firstly, I'm afraid that the Cross-report option will not affect the drill through by my test.
In addition, what's version of power bi desktop currently?
Besides, you just share the sample pbix which could reproduce your issue, you could mask your sensitive data before uploading.

Thanks, i am using the following version. Can i not upload the .pbix file? The reason being that on the link that you wanted me to share has many other folders.
Hi @Anonymous ,
I'm afraid that you'd better update your power bi desktop to be the latest one 2.72.5556.701. You could download from here.
If you still have problems with the latest version, let me know.

Cherry
thanks still the same issue
Hi @Anonymous ,
Sorry for the delay.
For further help, you'd better share your sample pbix which could reproduce your issue so that we could have a test on it. You could upload the pbix in your personal OneDrive and paste the link here. Do mask the sensitive data before uploading.
