Problems with Drill Down Report

Hi list
I just found a strange error when I use the drill down function:

We made some applications where our users can generate a financial report and after that they can click on an amount on it and with the drill down programm the user goes on the details of account.
But if there is more than one cost center on the report, the drill down programm always uses the last cost center and not that one I clicked on it.

Has somebody seen such a problem before?

Thanks!

Hi 'Scout -

I have had the pleasure of seeing such a problem. In my case, this occurred when I was using a driver to call the same report (a row report) repeatedly.

The drill down application (Balance Auditor - P83001) writes the report information (program, version, section, column, row) to a workfile, and this information is overwritten each time the report is called or run.

I'm not sure exactly what your situation is, but if you can set up your report without row specifications and find a way to sequence with a page break on the cost center, the drill down will work correctly.

Hope this helps,
Jen
