Tip Name: Creating Incremental Drilling

Purpose / Use: To allow users to drill to further detail without needing to fetch all

information into the original document beforehand. Using incremental

drilling provides a fast and efficient way to provide drilling while

avoiding the creation monster BQY files.

Sample File: Incremental drilling.bqy

Steps to Produce: To create incremental drilling, you will use a combination of a pre-

defined drill path plus the drill-to-detail feature. This combination will

tell Brio to automatically drill into detail information that is not currently

contained in the query.

1) Build a data model with a single Meta Topic. Once created, set the data model view to

show only the Meta Topic (use DataModel | DataModel View | Meta in the menu system).

2) Double-click on the title bar of the meta topic to display the Topic Properties dialog. Use

the “Up” and “Down” buttons to put the topic items in the order in which you want your

user to drill. Then, turn on the “Set as Dimension” checkbox. This defines the order of

items in the meta topic as the pre-defined drill path.
