Master-Detail Report with data page footer

Post by Drew »

Hi,
I am creating a master-detail report but came across a problem when I need to display a set of data within a page footer (because it needs to appear at the end of every page). It actually contains names of signatories of a report with a specific format (master-detail part). But for each document, it contains different sets of signatories (depending on the document id in the table). I have to generate the report depending on the document range entered by the user.

Header for Doc 1
Details for Doc 1
Signatories for Doc 1

Header for Doc 2
Details for Doc 2
Signatories for Doc 2

and so on.

I tried to put the signatories inside a data band and linked it with my header band. But i cannot resize the band (to occupy lesser horizontal space) because I need to put some text beside the Signatories box. And also, it moves depending on the Details contents. It should always be at the bottom of the page.

I tried using the subreport within the Databand of the header but it won't display at the end of every page and it moves depending on the contents of the details.

I tried placing the subreport inside a page footer band but it does not display the correct signatories of the document (gets all signatories for the documents in range).

Are there any techniques that I should try.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Hello.

To give you detailed answer we need to see the structure of your data sources.
Could you send us your data sources with sample data and a example what report you are trying create?

Thank you.
