1.

Display (open the tab for) the calling report. This is the report whose result data will be
passed to the called report. For more information about displaying a report, see

“Display

and Run a Saved Report” (page 232)

.

2.

Refresh or execute the report so that results are loaded into the Report Results pane. For
more information, see

“Run a SQL Statement Using Metric Miner” (page 225)

.

3.

In the Report Results pane, double-click a result row, or right-click anywhere in the row
and select Drill Down. The Select Report dialog box appears.

4.

In the Linked Reports list, select a linked report. The Passed Values section of the dialog
box shows the information that will be passed to the linked report.

If no linked reports are present, you can add one by clicking [ Add ]. See

“Link Reports in

Metric Miner” (page 235)

. The dialog box also allows you to edit an already linked report,

or remove a currently linked report.

5.

If the Passed Values are okay, click [ OK ]. Metric Miner runs the linked report using the
values passed from the selected row of the calling report. If the Passed Values are not okay,
you can click the down arrow for each parameter to select from previously passed values
or cancel the operation and select a different row in the calling report.

NOTE:

If the linked report is already loaded, a dialog box asks if you want to create a new

instance of the linked report. Click [ Yes ] or [ No ].

6.

To pass different values to the linked report, repeat the steps in this procedure, drilling
down on other rows in the original report.
