Good Afternoon,

I have a fex that drilldowns down multiple layers.

I have no issues running the initial report deferred, but once initial report complete and I drilldown into more detailed data there does not appear to be a way to run the subsequent reports deferred.

How did you do this first deferred report.

You may have to do the same inside the resulting deferred report.

You could run a coordinated drill through report in PDF which will include all of the drill downs in the run. Depending on the number of potential drilldowns levels the file size could get ugly.

SET COMPOUND=OPEN
 
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM SALES
BY COUNTRY
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
COLUMN=COUNTRY,TYPE=DATA,
DRILLTHROUGH=DOWN(COUNTRY),$
ENDSTYLE
END
 
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT RCOST DCOST
BY COUNTRY PAGE-BREAK
BY CAR
BY MODEL
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
COLUMN=CAR,TYPE=DATA,
DRILLTHROUGH=DOWN(CAR),$
ENDSTYLE
END
SET COMPOUND=CLOSE
 
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT RCOST DCOST SEATS
BY CAR PAGE-BREAK
BY MODEL
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF
END

As long as things haven't changed since 7.6.7 you should be able to just pass it as a variable for the drill down. Add the line 
IBIMR_defer=defer,
to the drill down and that should do it.
