Answers.Text: @naomi Yes, sorry - internally it's called the Contact Summary report, the web UI label is Constituent Summary.  That said, I just tested it on two different sites, and it's working for me in both - 4.7.1 and 4.7.4.  I'm not sure why it's not working for you, sorry!

Answers.Body: <p>Sounds like the ones that are linking to others are Summary reports which then take you through to the Detail report. You could try to rewrite the ones that don't click through, and which you want to do so, as Detail rather than Summary reports</p>

Comments.Text: Yes, that seems right. We have some reports on the dashboard that are lists of clients, team members etc and would like them to link to the contact but some do and some don't. I guess the answer is to rewrite the ones that don't as detail rather than summary reports. I'll try that - thanks!

  We have a lot of "Contact Reports" set up and in some of them the contact name links to the contact record but in others it links to another report.
  
  I can't see what it is that influences this. Is it configurable?

  This is not configurable out of the box - but I really don't like when clicking on a name in a report doesn't bring you to the contact record. For that reason, I've written an extension called "No Drill Down", which modifies any report that would normally bring you to a Contact Detail or Contribution Detail, and instead brings you to the contact record. You can [find it here](https://civicrm.org/extensions/no-drill-down).
