drill down from chart reports

[sampathku]

Hello iReport Pandits  ,

         I am trying to find out, if it is possible to allow report users to click on various jasper/jfreechart reports and drill-down to subsequent reports or data. I clearly understand that this can be done programmatically on dashboards & analysis views through jsp's & java scripts.

        What I am specifically looking for is drill-down from generated (pdf, html etc) reports & drll down to subreports. This can be done through text hyperlinks/MIME's, but can this be done from chart slices.

 

Regards,
Sampath.

Hi,

I don't think it's possible for pdfs ...

but an example for opening a new report by clicking on a bar of a simple bar chart, use this:

Open chart data, edit the category series and on the item hyperlink tab use the ReportExecution in the hyperlink type list. The reference should be  the report name and you can also add all the link parameters needed for the report to be opened.

best regards,
mpetek
