Drill through in EJ2 TypeScript Pivotview control

8 Aug 202324 minutes to read

Allows to view the underlying raw data of a summarized cell in the pivot table. It can be enabled by setting the allowDrillThrough property to true. By double-clicking on any value cell, user can view the detailed raw data in a data grid inside a new window. In the new window, row header, column header and measure name of the clicked cell will be shown at the top. Also, user can include or exclude fields available in the data grid using column chooser option.

To use drill-through feature, You need to inject the DrillThrough module in pivot table.

index.ts
index.html
import { PivotView, IDataSet, DrillThrough } from '@syncfusion/ej2-pivotview';
import { pivotData } from './datasource.ts';

PivotView.Inject(DrillThrough);
let pivotTableObj: PivotView = new PivotView({
    dataSourceSettings: {
        dataSource: pivotData as IDataSet[],
        expandAll: false,
        enableSorting: true,
        drilledMembers: [{ name: 'Country', items: ['France'] }],
        columns: [{ name: 'Year', caption: 'Production Year' }, { name: 'Quarter' }],
        values: [{ name: 'Sold', caption: 'Units Sold' }, { name: 'Amount', caption: 'Sold Amount' }],
        rows: [{ name: 'Country' }, { name: 'Products' }],
        formatSettings: [{ name: 'Amount', format: 'C0' }],
        filters: []
    },
    allowDrillThrough: true,
    height: 350
});
pivotTableObj.appendTo('#PivotTable');

Users can also view the underlying raw data though the pivot chart. By clicking on any data point, user can view the detailed raw data in a data grid inside a new window.

PivotView.Inject(DrillThrough);

Maximum rows to retrieve

This property is applicable only for the OLAP data source.

The maxRowsInDrillThrough property allows to specify the maximum number of rows that should be returned while drill through. By default, this property is set to “10000”. This means that if you do not specify this property, you will get 10,000 rows or less.

Events

DrillThrough

The event drillThrough triggers every time before a value cell is double clicked. This event allows user to customize the data grid columns in drill through popup. Exclusively the event helps to view and process the raw data information behind a aggregated value inside value cell. It has the following parameters:

columnHeaders - It holds column header of the current cell.
currentCell - It holds the current cell’s information.
currentTarget - It holds current cell’s html element.
gridColumns - It holds data grid columns to be rendered in drill through popup.
rawData - It holds current cell’s raw data.
rowHeaders - It holds row header of current cell.
value - It holds value of current cell.
cancel - It is a boolean property and by setting this to true, dialog won’t be created.

BeginDrillThrough

The event beginDrillThrough occurs for each and every value cell with a double click, and the event argument provides the data grid information before the drill-through popup is shown. User can access the data grid (which holds the raw data underneath the aggregated value cell) options such as sort, group, filter and customize those in the data grid. It has the following parameters:

gridObj - It holds the data grid instance to be rendered inside the drill-through popup.
cellInfo - It holds current cell information like raw data, row header, column header and value.

Grid features are segregated into individual feature-wise modules. For example, to use sorting feature, you should inject Sort using the Grid.Inject(Sort) section.
