To get detailed or general information about data, use data drilldown or drillup.
Data drilldown or drillup is the operation that enables the user to move through data levels: from general to detailed ones and vice versa. Available drilldown depth is determined by the hierarchy of data source dimensions. During drilldown of fixed dimension aggregation one can view the elements, from which data was aggregated.
Drilldown is used to move to a deeper level of dictionary hierarchy. The selection is rebuilt: all child elements of dimensions' deeper level are selected.
The following drilldown options are available:
Drilldown by dimension elements
Drilldown by aggregated elements
NOTE. Drilldown is unavailable if the selected data area range contains cells of different data sources and/or elements of different dimensions.
Drillup is used to move to a higher level of dictionary hierarchy. The selection is rebuilt: all elements of dimension parent level are selected.
The following drillup options are available:
Drillup by aggregated elements
NOTE. Drillup is unavailable if the selected data area range contains cells of different data sources and/or elements of different dimensions.
Consider the table with abstract data:

To return to the previous level, select any of the elements of the obtained level and select the Drill Up context menu item. As a result, data is drilled up, and the table restored its original view:
