Inserting Data: Overview Cognos Workspace Advanced groups data by level
For example, when you add the Product Type level to a crosstab, all of the individual product types (the members of the Product Type level) appear
You can also create sets of members from different levels in the same hierarchy
For example you can create a set of members that includes only Cooking Gear (a product line) and Lanterns (a product type) and then add that set to a crosstab
When inserting a member you can choose to insert just a member, just the children of a member, or a member and its children by using the insert options button at the top of the Source pane
12 Multi-Dimensional Reporting with Cognos Workspace Advanced
Drilling Up and Down Drilling up and down on members and sets allows you to traverse the
levels of a hierarchy
Drill down replaces a member with its children
Drill up replaces a member with its parent set
To in Preview Mode double-click on a member or right-click and choose Drill Down
To in Preview Mode double-click the parent (if available) or right-click and choose Drill Up
