You can configure a breakdown on a dashboard to act as an interactive filter for
reports on the dashboard.
There must be a dashboard configured with one or more reports and breakdowns, and
an interactive filter based on the same table as the breakdown source.
Role
required: pa_power_user, pa_admin, or admin
When you select a breakdown and breakdown element on a dashboard, that element can
be used to filter reports on the dashboard based on the filtering rules defined in an
interactive filter.
-
Navigate to .
-
Select a dashboard with one or more breakdowns.
-
Click Edit to modify the dashboard.
-
Click the dashboard settings icon (
) and select Modify.
-
In the Breakdown sources related list, click the
reference icon (
) next to the breakdown source you want to make into an interactive
filter.
Note: You cannot use a breakdown source that is based on a bucket group as an
interactive filter.
-
In the Act as filter field, select the interactive
filter you want this breakdown source to act as.
The breakdown source
Facts table must match the table
that the interactive filter is based on.
For example, for the breakdown
source HR.Groups.Active, use a reference field interactive filter for the
Groups [sys_user_group] table. Breakdown elements from the HR.Groups.Active
breakdown source are not valid selections for interactive filters on other
tables, such as interactive filters based on a choice or date
field.
