Group header on bottom of page

Hi, we are using Crystal Reports XI release 2, and I have a report with numerous sub reports each of which has varying text (memo) fields. We are using the u201CRepeat Group Header On Each Pageu201D functionality which works well 99% of the time. Occasionally we run into an issue where just the group header appears at the bottom of a page and the next page has the continued header with the data. My client does not want to see the group header at the bottom of the page if no data is underneath it. As we are trying to avoid white space, I was wondering if there was any way to compensate for this without using the u201Ckeep group togetheru201D functionality. Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.. I eventually found what I was loking for here...

Repeat the Group Header on a new page

Crystal Reports will only repeat the Group Header on a new page if there is at least one Detail on that page. If the last page of a group has only the Group Footer, then the Group Header will not repeat onto that page.
Is this correct?
I have this problem and have struggled to find which switch setting that I had used was overriding the "Repeat the Group Header on a new page" setting.

How to repreat only Group Header #2b in all pages?

Hi
Is there any way to repreat only Group Header #2b in all pages?
When I select repeat group header in all pages, it repeating Group Header #2a & Group Header #2b.
how to repeat only Group Header #2b?
Thank you

You can conditionally suppress group headers.
Set the headers to repeat on each page, and then to have group header 2a only printed once while group header2b repeats on all pages then contionally suppress group header 2a with
inrepeatedgroupheader // suppresses repeated headers
Note you can also suppress a header the first time header is printed with
not(inrepeatedgroupheader) //suppresses the first time

RDLC - Group Header Continued on next page...

Hi All,
I have a requirment in RDLC, if the group rows exceeds more than one page, I need to add a content at the bottom of page and next page first row, like below
Group
             ------Recrods-----------
             ------Recrods-----------
Group Continued on next page...
----------------------------------------------------------------Next Page-------------------------------
Group Continuing from Previous page...
           ------Recrods-----------
           ------Recrods-----------
Group
         ------Recrods-----------
         ------Recrods-----------
Could you please help me out on this?
Advance Thanks,
Nava Deeban S

Hi Nava,
In your case, I think that we can try to implement another solution to deal with this issue. For example, we can reset the page number based on group and add some information on the page header.
Please refer to the image below:

Orphan table header at bottom of page when page breaks a table across multiple pages

Hi all,
I think similar questions have been asked before but I have not found an answer.
Here's the scenario:
I have several dynamic tables in a dynamic form. The layout is flowed, and everything can grow and shrink as needed. That all works.
However, my tables have headers. Occasionally when one of these tables is large and needs to break across multiple pages, there will be just enough room at the bottom of the previous page to show the next table header, but not enough space to show any of the related table rows. So it ends up looking silly, with just an orphaned header at the bottom of one page, and then the table continues on the next.
I have my tables set up so that headers get repeated on subsequent pages, by setting the header row to "repeat row for each data item" on the binding tab. I would like to keep that functionality, but I just want to find a way to avoid these "orphaned" table headers that sometimes appear.
I have tried the "keep with next" option. However, although this does push the rendering of the header to the next page, it seems that according to livecycle the table still officially began on the previous page. Therefore I get a duplicate header because of the "repeat row for each data item" option.
I have also tried having two header rows, one that is set to only be displayed on the initial page, and the other that is set to appear only on subsequent pages (pagination tab). This did not work - I ended up with duplicate table headers.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks!

You shouldn't have "repeat row for each data item" selected for header rows.
You should have "include header row in initial page" and "include header row in subsequent pages" selected on the Pagination tab.
Then using a "keep with next" might work ok.

Unable to remove the redundant group header from the bottom of page

Hi,
In one of my projects in I am facing a problem.
I need to display the details of all available products of the company. While displaying the details, I need to group the products based on some criteria (like type of product, release date) and the grouping is upto 4 level grouping. Grouping criteria can se said as, I need to firstly group all the products based on the type, then on the Release Date and then on two of the client specific values on the Product.
Along with this, the view of product details is a thumbnail view (Image on top with all details below that line after line) due to which I need to display multiple (5) products in one row.
The problem which I am facing is:
The most important criterion for the customer is that there should not be any wastage of space.
Secondly, they also donu2019t want to see partial data like only the header data in one page and the Product related Data (Image and Info) on the next page.
In my case, when first page has insufficient space for the next grouped products, it simply displays the group header on the first page. On the second page, it again displays the group header along with the data.
For reference, images are available at:
Image1: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3454/3224626688_aa3cfb8236_m.jpg
Image2: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3373/3224626782_0501cf566f_m.jpg
My requirement is to remove the redundant group header from the first page as it does not make sense without having any data below it.
I have tried the following options:
1. I tried to apply setting "Keep Group Together" on the group and "Repeat Group Header On Each Page". But when I apply this, when my second group has more than 5 products (two rows of data) and space on first page can accommodate only 1 row of data, it moves the data on to the second page instead of keeping the 1st row on first page and 2nd on second page. This solution is not acceptable to the customer as it wastes space.
2. If I remove setting "Keep Group Together" on all the groups, but keep the "Repeat Group Header On Each Page" and remove the "Keep Object Together" in the details section, I can save space. But this is not acceptable to the user as it leaves dangling headers (Orphaned Header Information).
Need some pointers to overcome this issue as it is very critical for me.
Thanks in advance,
Vibhav Agrawal

Thanks Raghavendra for your reply.
These solutions provided on the link are not useful for me because of the peculiar layout of my report.
In my report I am supposed to show details of multiple items (upto 5/6) in a single row.
All solutions suggest about adding additional header (below group header) and use the formula to use that header to put the data for initial first object and details section for the subsequent objects.
But, since i need to display multiple items in same row...and data cannot be set as 'format with multiple columns' in the header, hence this solution does not work for me
Thanks,

Why does my group header keep repeating?

Hi,
I can't figure this out. My group header appears on the first page as it should. It doesn't appear on the second page. Then it appears on the third page and all subsequent pages for that group.
In my example group #1 is the invoiceID. For each invoiceID, there would be some header information that should display on the first page of that invoice. Then come the details.
For some reason, the invoice header information keeps reappearing on every page of that invoice as the details continue along the bottom.
I have no formulas set up for my group header. The group itself is the same. There is enough room for the group header on the first page, and it doesn't seem to matter what boxes I check and uncheck; I get the same result. Any ideas on what might have been done to cause this?
Thanks
Edited by: plynch on Feb 21, 2012 5:04 PM

Hi,
So, the Group Header (for the same group) appears on every page except for the 2nd page. Which means you've got the 'Repeat Group Header' on each page' option ON under Group Options.
Why it doesn't come on the 2nd page? Could you check if you've got a conditional suppression formula on the Group Header. Go to Section Expert > Group Header > check if you have formula under 'Suppress'.

Not inserting Group Header

Post Author: luvthehawks
CA Forum: Publishing
Crystal is not inserting the group header when I insert a new group. Itu2019s the same in a new or existing report.
INSERT
GROUP
(Select field for new group)
OK
Crystal does insert a new group, but does not insert the group header field. If I insert the field into the blank group header, I canu2019t sort by the group.
I have been using Crystal Reports for some time, with no problems with inserting group header. This problem is new since I got a new computer. (Coincidence?)

"Why group header will not repeat on pages that are printing the just the group footer.
Have you some tricks to forced the printing of group header on a new page ?"
You can set the group header to NEW PAGE BEFORE, but if the group footer spans more than one page, the header will not repeat. It is just the way it is.
Try setting the group header to new page before and put the info from group header in the page header-see how that works for you.

Group Header is not repeating when exported to pdf in 2008 r2

Hi
i have a typical scenario here , when i am trying to repeat my group header it is working fine in report viewer but when i exported to pdf it is not repeating. yea it is working fine in excel.
could some one help me in this as i tried various ways but couldn't able to figure it out
PS: i am using 2008r2
if this is the issue in 2008r2 , did it got fixed in any new version please suggest.
thanks
sharath

Hi sharath,
Based on my understanding, the group header doesn’t repeat when you export report to PDF file.
In Reporting Service, the RepeatOnNewPage property has effect on static row members only and where KeepWithGroup is not None. If value for KeepWithGroup is None, the group header will not appear in a new page. As we tested in our environment, we set FixedData
as True, KeepWithGroup as After and RepeatOnNewPage as True, the group header repeat in second page when export to PDF file. Please refer to screenshot below:
So in your scenario, please check if you have set KeepWithGroup as After. Then export to PDF again to check if group header can repeat in multiple pages. If issue persists, please provide some detail information about your report design. If possible, please
provide some screenshots about your results before and after perform PDF render.

If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Running total in group header doesn't display when it's at page bottom

Post Author: Charles Denight
CA Forum: Formula
Hi, Using v.9 of Crystal Reports I've created some running totals using a cross-tab workaround to get the running totals into the group headers, but when the group header falls at the bottom of the page then the running total doesn't show up.Would appreciate knowing why and how to fix this.

Replacing an item that is malfunctioning because of a manufacturing error is the bare minimum I would expect from customer service for any electronics item.
The thing Apple does extremely well is their flat fee policy for repairs on their computers.
I managed to break my MacBook pretty seriously (logic board needed to be replaced) and I'm sure it cost them more to repair the unit than the $328 they charged me.
I probably would have been angry if it was something minor, but I'm guessing that most repairs to screens/motherboards/etc cost more than their flat fees.

Repeating group variables on the header of a second page.

In BI Publisher Desktop 11.1.1.6
I have something similar to a customer and a list of invoices. On each page I need the customer info at the top and also some customer info printed at the bottom of the page. The customer is a group and I do a page break on it and list all of the detail invoices. This works fine except for when the list of invoices goes beyond a page.
I cannot find a way to have the customer info repeated on the top and bottom of the second or consecutive page(s). It would be great if the header could pick up the customer name but it does not appear to be that you can use variables in an MS-Word header. Is this possible and if so, can anyone point me to any examples of how to do this?
Thanks!

Thanks very much but I am missing something or did not ask my question correctly.
If I add <?Customer_Name?> into the heading, it prints the name but it prints the first customer name on every page (the same name). It does not pick up the second customer record name when it is on the body of the second customer. So, page one has Customer 1 in the heading and some detail.. Page 2 has Customer 1 in the heading but the detail is for Customer2 . How would I get the header variables to pick up the customer record name that the for loop changes to? Also not sure what you mean by putting the tables in the header. The repeat table is in the body. Are you saying move that into the header?
I do appreciate your help...as I know I am close and think I am missing something simple.

How to print Group Header on page break in a subreport - CR XI

Post Author: rickcf
CA Forum: General
I have a subreport that has 3 groups with only one group that has a heading. When the report prints and a subreport group is split between two pages (on a page break) I would like the group heading to also print again at the top of the page- even with the word "continued..." also. Right now only the main report page header prints. How can I do this since there is no page header in a subreport?
Thanks
Rick

Post Author: rickcf
CA Forum: General
Is there any way to test during detail processing time to see if a page break is occuring? If so I could print out a fake header on the detail line, suppressing it only if the page breaks. That is the only thing I can come up with to solve the issue.
I am surprised the is not an option to reprint the group header on a page break. That seems like a needed option and that is the standard in Foxpro reporting - there is a checkbox option to cover this scenario.
A coworker did find a workaround to add a psudo page header to a subreport so if I can add that and put my group info in there it will also work. I have not looked at the code yet though.
I have another issue I am working on so this one might take a while to get back to.

Group heading on each page..

I am trying to get BI Publisher to output a group heading on each page of my report.. At this time, I am using the Word/RTF version to build my layout.
I have information in the word document header and footer, and tried adding the group by column in the header, but that only returned my first group value, always!.
is there a safe solution? I have looked through the forum and seen many questions on this and not any simple answers..

Repeating Group header on each page

Hello Everybody,
I have two groups in my report. For my first group value, i have given report - group expert - options and checked "Repeat group header on each page" assuming that my first group values will appear on each page. But it is not doing so. In one of the page the group footer values are appearing without my first group values.
I belive my problem is my second group values are ending in one page and first group values are extended to next page . Can any one please hep me.

if that is the case Narukonda 1, there are several sap notes dealing with this issue...please see this sap note [here |http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_erq/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes%7B6163636573733d36393736354636443646363436353344333933393338323636393736354637333631373036453646373436353733354636453735364436323635373233443330333033303331333233313333333133373339%7D.do]which deals with both orphaned group footers and group headers.
