hierarchy with subquery

Itamar Steinberg shared this question 6 years ago

How can I drill down on a field with hierarchy when the report in constructed out of subquery?

for example:


sales vs target.

the target is in a different view.

on the yyyy-mm level with a hierarchy field of yyyy -> yyyy_mm


the outcome is:

date (hierarchy), sales, target

now, I want to see the data first by year and then by yyyy-mm (the hierarchy)

I have tried to do it both on the join between the two queries and with link_to filter


Any suggestions?

thanks

Hi Itamar,


if I have understood the scenario correctly, it sounds to me like perhaps the best thing here would be to use composite views. Normally we don't really recommend the Composite View functionality much these days as we regard the Advanced Sub-Query as the superior functionality, however in this situation it seems to me that it would definitely be worth a try. Unfortunately I am almost at the end of my working day here so I can't set up the tables, data and views etc. to test it out. However, as I said, this is certainly a suggestion worth trying.


regards,

David
