I have a report where I have two groups first is main group and other is detail group and I want to repeat few rows from main group on every page. I have tried many options like static group advanced settings and RepeatInNewPage Set to true. But it is not repeating as my details increases and it goes on second page in pdf then these rows from parent group are not repeating. Please find below screenshot. Please help.

Sorry if this seems vague; but ive never posted before. Below is a picture for reference:

Im trying to do group by Full name and have page breaks to separate each person to their own page. I want to have the specific persons (Provider Name) whos page were on information in cells (Not headers) at the start of every new page. Is there an expression that will pull the value of the current Row Group value for each page?
If you don;t already have a row group that groups by Provider Name then you'll need to add one. Then inside that group, add additional rows as required (this will be two rows in total looking at your design) and add the required data. Then go to the group's properties and set the page breaks to 'between each instance'.
This will force a page break on change of provider and include the group header.
I have inherited an SSRS report which is basically a single table (tablix), one row of which contains a subtable. When the subtable is less than 10 rows, the report fits on a single page. However, when there are more than 10 rows, the report inserts a page break before the subtable and starts a new page, leaving over half of the first page blank.
What the users would like is for the subtable to split across the page break; that is, have the first 10 rows on page one, then start page 2 with a header row for the subtable and continue it.
Is there a simple way to achieve this or is it a case where the report really needs rewriting from scratch?
FYI, we are using SSRS 2012.
In inner tablix make sure keep together on one page if possible is unchecked.
Other way you can handle is remove the inner tablix and incorporate the same functionality in the main table.
After further attempts, I managed to get the table to split. The problem was that the row did not contain only the tablix, but also had textboxes to either side. It seems these were kept together as a group.
FYI, the more interesting problem was getting the headers onto the 2nd and following pages in the sub-table. This MSDN article explained the use of advanced settings to achieve this.
I've a SSRS page which has header, two charts with different datasets and a subreport below charts.
When I run the page and drill down (I click on one of the bars of chart, it calls itself) and data populates in subreport which spans multiple pages.
My problem is I want to repeat those charts on each page. I've searched and tried a lot However nothing worked forme.
How can I repeat charts in multiple pages of subreport? Please note that I've got charts with different data sets and that subreport is used at multiple places.
Thanks for the reply mike.
I believe it can not be achieved using subreports. hence, i embedded that subreport tablix into report and did as suggested by mike(charts went into header row).
Since tablix accepts only single dataset, i created a big dataset that has all the fields for two charts and data and applied required settings to get the job done.
It worked for me(at least to get the job done.).
I had a report that after each record (customer), I put a page break so that each record got its own numbers in one page. I also wanted to add a graph specific to only that customer. So i added the graphs into a table. In the table where my graphs were place, I added a parent group group - the same group as my data and I checked that the table also had the page break on the same group. This separated each record into a page each and also added the graphs to its corresponding record.
I would try to wrap the two charts and subreport inside a tablix. The dataset for the tablix would be one that returns a single row.
The two charts would go into the header row(s). The subreport would go in the Detail row.
Row and Column sizes need to be expanded to fit the chart and subreport sizes. There may be only one or two Columns depending on your layout.
Then I would use the dreaded "Advanced Mode" technique to get the header row(s) to repeat on each page, e.g.

I have a tablix in SQL REPORTS (SSRS) that has many grouped items.
It fits roughly 3.5 groupped item per page when printnig, however I dont want the groups to be split up over the 2 pages, I want a pagebreak to happen whenever the group needs to be split.
I dont want to have it 1 group per page either, I know there is an option for that.
At the bottom of the report builder, you will see two boxes, Row Groups and Column Groups. Select the Column Groups drop down, click "Advanced Mode" and then in Row groups highlight "Details". In Properties under the "Other" section, select "True" for Keep Together. and save. This should work.
Note: I know this is old hope this helps people starting out though.
Modifying the property Other -> KeepTogether of the outermost row group desired to keep within a single page worked for me using Report Builder 3.
My KeepTogether values for each Row Group
Notice in my example, KeepTogether is false for table1_Group1. I don't want to keep my entire dataset together. Instead I want to keep only individual groupings of that dataset together.
In order to see the Properties panel, enable the Properties checkbox under the Show/Hide section of the View tab of the Ribbon.
My View settings
Probably the best place to start is the group-level KeepTogether property.
Indicates whether to keep all sections of the data region together on
one page.
I have just worked through 3 similar reports that were all suffering this issue.
It was only when I marked the group row AND the detail row to get the report to force a page break and keep the pages together.
Interestingly, I can then set the DETAIL BACK to false and the report still functions correctly. I have no explanation as to why, but this was repeatable.
I am using SQL Server 2016 Report Builder (the red one)
I tried all options about that. When I have a more difficult group, it sometimes happens, that the group will be split across pages. Even though setting "Keep Together" property to True.
My solution is:
don't use multiple rows
use one row with rectangle
to rectangle import TextBoxes and fill them with expression "=Fields!Column.Value"
So I've got various reports that consist of a DataSet rendered in a Tablix... pretty garden variety stuff. There is a property for the Tablix control named RepeatColumnHeaders, which I have set to True for each report in question. The explanation for this property states “Indicates whether column headers are repeated on each page on which part of the data region appear.” Sounds pretty straightforward, but on some reports it works and on others it does not. I can't seem to find what's different about the reports that might affect this. On one report where the headers do repeat, there is some fairly arcane grouping mojo, but in an example where it doesn't work the Tablix only has one level--no grouping. I would expect the multi-nested one to be the problem, not the flat one.
Maybe it's a different problem altogether. I threw together a simple Tablix rendering SELECT * FROM Foo, accepted all the default values, which results in RepeatColumnHeaders being set to False, and lo and behold the column headers do repeat for that report... Grrr.
Any insights greatly appreciated.
It's a bit wonky from what I've managed to dig up. In your grouping pane, select advanced mode, then select your outermost static row. You should then see the "RepeatOnNewPage" property.
Update: finding Advanced Mode:
The comment by #HCL links to the other answer by #user359904, that has the info on how to find and enter Advanced Mode:
Select the tablix
Below the report are "Row Groups" and "Column Groups", all the way to the right of "Column Groups" is a small downward arrow.
Click the arrow, choose Advanced Mode.
I found a solution that works for me. Vinny's answer led me to it.
Thankfully, I didn't have to recreate my tablix. I had three rows that made up my tablix header. I added three rows outside of the highest level group. These rows are not bound to any group. I modified the rows so that they exactly duplicated the header rows I had in my highest level group. I set the KeepWithGroup property to "After" and the "RepeatOnNewPage" property to true for each of these header rows. I tested the report. The header appeared at the top of every page but due to the duplication of the header rows both inside the highest level group and above the highest level group, the header repeated twice at the top of the first page and at every section break. I deleted the header rows in the topmost section and the duplication went away. Headers repeat correctly at the each break of the highest level group and at the top of each page. There are no header rows in the highest level group.
To set KeepWithGroup and RepeatOnNewPage: Select the tablix. In the group box below the design pane, click on the down arrow to the right of the text that reads "Column Groups" and make sure "Advanced Mode" is checked. Click the first static row and set the KeepWithGroup property to "After" and "RepeatOnNewPage" to true. Do that for each of the rows that comprise your header.
Sorry to beernuts for un-marking your response as the answer; I hope you get to keep the rep points.
The plot thickens. In three tests I found a 1:1 correlation between using the wizard to create a report and getting the desired header behavior, as well as between not using the wizard and not being able to achieve the desired behavior. From there I diff'd the rdl files for a working and non-working example and found this element:
<RepeatOnNewPage>true</RepeatOnNewPage>
In the document at:
Report > Body > ReportItems > Tablix > TablixBody > TablixRowHierarchy
> TablixMembers > TablixMember
I added the same to the non-working rdl and the headers started repeating.
I cannot, however, find a setting, property, etc in the designer that toggles this. It does not seem to correspond at all to the obvious properties as described previously. Is it just an artifact of the wizard? Fortunately it's a fairly easy work-around as I couldn't face recreating a dozen reports using the wizard.
Your post is still being used ;) Thank you all. I built upon what you provided to come up with a solution to restore repeating header rows. I did not have to use the Advanced mode, just some insight... I had two title rows outside all row groups with no column groups. Here is what I did to get the two title rows into the tablix header:
Right click on one title row and "Add Group (Column Group)", Parent Group
Group by '1' (this group will later be deleted so it doesn't matter what you put there
Click OK and the a Header row is added.
Merge all columns in the new header row
In the column group pane, right click on group just created and "Delete Group", select box for "group only" important
Now you have header row you can insert row above or below to add more header lines.
Move your title rows into the new header rows and delete your old title rows.
Last... make sure you check the Tablix property to "Repeat Column Headers on each page"
It worked well and easily repeatable (I had many tablixes).
Sincerely, Alan
In your reports where the header doesn't repeat, did you delete the default header row in the tablix at any point? Once I did that, no matter what setting I tried, the header in the tablix wouldn't repeat. I had to re-create the tablix to get it to work.
It's now the year 2014 and I'm running 2012 version and I used your post to solve my problem - one that experienced SSRS developer in our shop didn't know how to solve (I'm just a newbie). Thanks so much for contributing your solution - it seems to be a timeless issue.
I am adding some screenshots from my SSRS 2012 server..
Now, click on the "(Static)" under "Row Groups" and presss F4.
