Drill-through in Chart

You can enhance the interactivity in your report by adding drill-through links to it using the Jump to Report property. A drill-through link takes you to another report with more detail. Drill-through links appear as a hyperlink that you can click to move to a completely different report. Drill-through links are displayed when you preview your report.
