Chart Titles that adjust to the drill down layer

Hi All,

 

I have a chart that displays Invoicing by Month.

At the upper most level, the title is fine. Invoicing by Month. The report is designed to be for Financial YTD only, so will only ever show a max of 12 columns.

 

However the report has a drill down, for each month that breaks the invoicing out to day of month.

This shows the title "Invoicing by Month by Day of Month" which is not what im after.

If I have drilled down into July, I'd like the report title to show "Invoicing for July 2016 by day of month", so the person running the report has some context for what they are looking at.

 

Its rather difficult to explain the usefulness of a report to a sales exec of when they are trying to figure their month breakdown and cant even tell what month they are looking at for said breakdown.

 

Note, This report does have a 'Division' slicer on the right of the invoicing by month chart. We do not need this being incorporated into the title, however I mention in the event it needs to be factored into any formula design.

 

So theres two things here:

1) Layer 0 is fine, it may have a "generic" title

2) Layer 1 should be dynamic to show what data has been drilled into. 

 

I am open to the idea of suppressing default titles and using formulas, however would need some guidance here.

 

Thanks,

Andrew
