Sections
An Advanced Report's sections define the appearance and pattern of the report.
Specifically, sections determine how frequently their cell contents are repeated.
The appearance of a report is based on data that is not necessarily known at the time it
is made. The data, and the relationships it describes, are dynamic and mutable. So
tabular reports are usually not fixed designs. Instead, you are describing how the report
structures itself around a set of unpredictable data. Knowing which sections are suitable
for different types of content is crucial for designing the best possible report.
Section Description
Page Header The rows in this section appear at the top of each page.
Report Header The rows in this section appear at the beginning of the report.
Detail The rows in this section appear once for each row of data
returned during execution.
Report Footer The rows in this section appear at the end of the report.
Page Footer The rows in this section appear at the bottom of each page.
Group Header The rows in this section appear at the start of each new value of
a sorted data field.
Note: Group header sections require that a sort exists.
Group Footer The rows in this section appear at the end of each value of a
sorted data field.
Note: Group footer sections require that a sort exists.
Repeating Group Use when you have multiple one-to-many relationships from one
data category to other categories and you want each category’s
data to appear separately.
