Drill through using Ragged Hierrachy from Essbase

Question

Problem Description
I have a requirement to provide the drill through functionality after drilling down to the lowest level for unbalanced ragged heirrachy but the issue was that
the lowest level grain was shared across different level. This we overcame in RDBMS by introducing skipped ( jumping the all leaf level to the last column) or Psedo balanced
( repeating the leaf level till the last column) and then using the Action link and providing the leaf level member as the parameter.
But now the problem is we need to do the drill through in Essbase sourced cube in obiee where the heirarchy is ragged unbalanced and I cannot change it to skipped / psedo balanced.
Pls. suggest how to achieve the drill through after drilling down to teh leaf level as the leaf level is shared acros sdiffernet levels.

Hi Sasi
Thanks for the response . Here I mean the heirarchy is ragged . See below the sample heirrachy where the leaf levels are E,X,Q ,S etc...

Level2
Level3
Level4

We have handles drill thorugh in obiee11g using RDBMS as data source by making this ragged heirarchy - a psedo balanced heirarchy by repeating the last level till the end. and then using the last level as the column for drill through parameter.

But the problem is we cannot do this essbase cube . Pls. suggest how tohandle this in cube where we cannot manipulate teh ragged heirarchy.
