Is there a way to change the predefined drill for Year/Month?

Question

Is there a way to change the predefined drill for Year/Month? By default it drills to Week Start Date, but I'd like to have it drill to another time attribute. If I add this drill on a report, it prompts both options when you try to drill, which I'd like to avoid

Thanks Matthew. I'm in a custom space so no worries on the delivered content.

I don't see a "Hierarchies" in options. I have "Drill Maps" but it's empty.

EDIT: It looks like creating an entry there overwrote the one I couldn't see. Thanks!

Dan,

In order to do this you have to modify the existing drill hierarchy.

Admin > Space > Hierarchies

You can either:

* Edit the existing hierarchy to replace Week Start Date with your preferred time attribute (e.g., Date, Day, Period, etc.)
* Delete the existing hierarchy and create a new one with your desired drill path (e.g., Year > Month > Date)

Keep in mind youre modifying delivered content and the next time you take an update/refresh to CSF Analytics (or HR Talent Analytics, not sure which youre working with), youll lose this change and will need to redeploy this.

hope this helps,

Matt
