ABSTRACT:
The invention, when incorporated in a drill-through modeling tool (DMT), allows all the elements affecting drill-through behavior to be aggregated in a single structure or set of structures, thereby allowing administration to be simplified, and also permitting easier integration with third-party tools. The invention also provides for graphical displays of drill-through paths for a DMT user. These displays show the parameters and dependencies of each drill-through path and allow tool users to obtain a quick overview of the drill-through network and further, they allow the tool user to confirm drill-through dependencies at a glance. Drill-through objects may thus be manipulated and maintained in a graphical manner.
