Footers in a Report

sabzam

Dear All,

I have got a report with three footers. I need that all the footers are printed at the end of the page one above each other - therefore detached from the body. The very last one is doing so without any problems but the other two are being displayed exactly below the body rather than above the footer.

Is it possible to force them to be displayed one above each other?

You can go to the properties of the footer (in Section Designer, select Footer) and set property PlaceInBottom to Yes on all footers.

That would end up that the top-most footer would go to the end of the page while the other two on a seperate page each as they would need to be at the very end

Did you try to use KeepWithNext = yes (not = <yes>) in combination with PlaceInBottom?

The Issue is this:

We have got an invocies and at the bottom there is the VAT Analysis. The vat analysis includes a header, a body a footer. Besides there is a footer above related to the sales Line and another footer related to the sales Header below. I want all this section at the very bottom of the report. Is this possible. Therefore in a nutshell I need a footer; a header; a body; a footer and anotehr footer; one above each otehr at the bottom of the page

If you have:


dataitem1
dataitem2 (indented)
dataitem3 (indented)


then the report will always print

Sections:
Dataitem1 Header
Dataitem1 Body
Dataitem2 Header
Dataitem2 Body
Dataitem2 Footer
Dataitem3 Header
Dataitem3 Body
Dataitem3 Footer
Dataitem1 Footer

The footers cannot be together. What you need is either to have all of the information in the Dataitem 1 Footer (you could use three different sections), or more dataitems (the same result) - integer dataitems that print once with the summary you need.

So either
Sections:
Dataitem1 Body
Dataitem2 Header
Dataitem2 Body
Dataitem2 Footer
Dataitem3 Header
Dataitem3 Body
Dataitem3 Footer
Dataitem1 Footer
Dataitem1 Footer
Dataitem1 Footer

Or

dataitem1
dataitem2 (indented)
dataitem3 (indented)
integer dataitem4
integer dataitem5
integer dataitem6

Sections:
Dataitem1 Body
Dataitem2 Header
Dataitem2 Body
Dataitem3 Header
Dataitem3 Body
Dataitem4 Body
Dataitem5 Body
Dataitem6 Body
