drill-down level of dynarange with variable

Enable drill-down begin of a dynarange not only by "hardcoded" number, but with a variable. So you could easily set up the expansion levels.

    This Feature would be nice to have. Especially when working with PnL Dimensions this would be helpful. PnL Dimensions often times have different depth of levels and also multiple levels. So as a planner it would be nice to have the option in a planning report to have an expand all/collapse all/choose level start option which could all be done if the drill-level in the dynarange setting is variable.

    I agree to the other contributors here.

    Our use case would be as well to have a "collapse all" or "expand all" funtionality for a dynarange which allows a long list of items in a dynarange to be expanded to the next hierarchy level by only one click. And to avoid individually clicking on all items and expand them individually.

    Endusers in our house are really looking for such a feature to ease their work.

    And the propose workaround with the HFILTER is leading to the situation that users are trying to click on a high level item and this does not open as only this level is shown.

    Therefore, I strongly underline the requirement of my previous speakers.

    I agree with the last comment. The HFilter shows only e.g. Level 2 to 4.
    But the "Drill down, begin as level" defines the starting point. This feature would enable us to implement a checkbox: Uncheck: Show only 3 levels (report opens fast for large Dimensions) or check and show all elements.

    With the "Drill down..." as a user I can still double click on level 4 and itdrills down instead of to filter until level 4 only.

    I agree, HFILTER is not a solution. It filters the deepest level and user cannot open it anymore.

    It is necessary to change the property "Drill down, begin as level" by variable.

    Please implement this.

    I also think, that in some scenarios the variable can help to get a "perfect" simple report.

    HFilter or Combobox on the same dimension can be used to achieve the similar results, but it is not the same. All or nothing, agree :(

    Our workaround was to make a copy of the same report with two different initial levels for the DynaRange + hyperlinks to switch between them.

    The suggested HFilter approach is not really helping.

    The intention of the feature request is to control the initial expansion level dynamically
    while at the same time keeping the possibility to expand a certain node later on .. e.g. for deeper analysis.

    However the HFilter approach justs sets the visible range for the whole tree -> all or nothing.
    Thats brutally inelegant compared to modern analysis needs.

    Imagine you have 10 main balance sheet positions .. and you need to go into detail for just
    the last position. HFilter would increase the level of detail for all 10 positions ..and you will start scrolling.....

    Thanks for the idea. This feature has been evaluated by us and we will not implement it at this time. It is possible to achive a similar effect by setting the maximum level of indention in the DynaRange property to a high value, and then controlling the amount of actually visible levels by parametrizing the HFilter in the DynaRange's subset.

    That is a very good point. With a variable function it es possible to open and close the hole DynaRange by Buttons or something else.
