RE: Drill
 

There can be 3 types of Drill Analysis- Drill Down,Drill Up and Drill Through.

Within the same universe one can Drill Up/Down like Country-State-City;of course with facts that relate to the same grain.

A Drill through is possible when we can link different Data Marts like Profitability as defined by details of Asset,Liability,Income and Expense.
