Any RBT document that is configured to require runtime input parameters can be used as a drill down target report if the runtime input parameter data types have matching types in the parent document.

Creating Drill Down Target Document

To create a drill down target document, design a document that requires runtime input parameters. The target document can then be added to a document template as a drill down link as long as the the runtime paremeter entry columns have matching types in the template.
