Datasource: Bex, drill-down impossible

Question

Hello,
We have following problem concering SAP BusinessObjects 4.0.
In the past we used the Universe as datasource, there we could create hierarchies. So the drill-down function was possible.
Now we change the datasource to Bex and the drill-down function isn't possible anymore.
The Scope of Analysis panel is still empty.
Could you explain how to create hierarchies (in Bex) and how the drill-down function works?
Thank you!
Best regards

Hi wladimir,
If  you need to show a hierardhy in a dynamic way then there is flexibility to create hierarchicl representation with the help of structures in Bex
For ex:
Lets suppose you have region which contain values south east north and west.and one more info object customer which contain values S1,S2,S3,S4,E1,E2,E3,E4,N1,N2,N3,N4,W1,W2,W3,W4.
So S1,S2,S3,S4 belong to south region, N1 N2 N3 N4 belong to north like that.
So you can create structure in rows , with new selections
when you expand south you can see the south customr values, when you expand north you can see north customer values....
if new customer values loaded to cube then have to add it manuallly again in the query designer.
