Drillthrough function in Power BI column chart - show day numbers instead of dates


I have created 2 different column charts in my Power BI report. The charts show the report usage by month and day (Day 1-31) - in this case for October. Only one month can be selected at a time.

I have added a drill-through function to the chart so the user can access a more detailed report. This works fine with the first chart when the Date field is placed under Axis (example: 2017-11-14).

When I instead try to use the Year, Month, Day fields under Axis only the day is being sent through to the drill-through report. For example November 6'th 2017 is being picked up at 6'th of each month. It seems that the drill-though function is only using the lowest level of data.

The first option works fine, however I would like it to look the the chart below where you see the number of each day instead of the entire date.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Edit:

This is what the drillthrough filters look like on the drillthrough report page (I have selected November 9'th on the other page):

Solution

  • I finally managed to solve the issue:

    I selected the drill down arrow on the right (in the top-left corner of the visualization) to drill down to the lowest level and not the arrow in the middle which I thought did the exact same thing except with more steps.

    Now the drillthrough function works and all the values are passed to the next report!
