To take full benefit out of base scorecards, you can define automatic drill-down to be performed on elements of your choice. With automatic drill-down you can have elements with a matching name and/or identifier to be referenced from lower level scorecards. You can also define how many levels are included in the automatic drill-down. Settings for the automatic drill-down can be defined in the Drill Down tab of the Element Properties window.
