How to do page grouping in ssrs? - reporting-services

How can I page grouping SSRS after I've create a report? I can do it if creating new report, but do not know how to do it if I already have created reprot.

In order to break groups on page, you right click on the group at the bottom of the report and select "Group Properties". The second tab on the left in the "Group Properties" is "Page Breaks". You can select the check box, "Page break options" " "Between each instance of a group".
Then ensure that your headers and your footers you want to repeat with each page are in that group. If they are not add new headers and footers in the group and remove the old ones.

If by page grouping you mean grouping data in a Data region, such as a Table, then this is how you can do it.
At the bottom of your report is a section showing Row Groups and Column Groups. Click on the Data region, Row Groups will show a line that says "Details". It represents every row in your data set. Suppose my data set has Country and Region columns, I can drag Country into the Row Groups pane. My data rows will be grouped by Country. I can again drag Region and drop it between Country and Details to create a subgroup.

To display a static tablix member (row or column) on multiple pages.
On the design surface, click the row or column handle of the tablix data region to select it. The Grouping pane displays the row and column groups.
On the right side of the Grouping pane, click the down arrow, and then click Advanced Mode. The Row Groups pane displays the hierarchical static and dynamic members for the row groups hierarchy and the Column groups pane shows a similar display for the column groups hierarchy.
Click the static member that corresponds to the static member (row or column) that you want to remain visible while scrolling. The Properties pane displays the Tablix Member properties.
In the Properties pane, set RepeatOnNewPage to True.
Repeat this for as many adjacent members as you want to repeat.

How to get name and logo to repeat for every page of a table (tablix)

I'm trying to recreate a report created from Crystal Reports to SSRS.
The report has the company name and logo on top, a chart below and a table that can span multiple pages. If the table for a company takes more than one page to display, the comapny name and logo is displayed for every page.
I was somehow able to do this, except for the repeating name and logo.
I need it to look like this:
Add you company and logo information in the top line but INSIDE the group (assuming company is the grouping here). Then click on the little down arrow to the right of the "Column Groups" window (bottom right) and select Advanced Mode
It should show up some Static elements under the Row Groups windows.
Select one at a time and then click on the properties window.. then select RepeatonNewPage = True
Do this for all the static group above the detailed group. You many need to set the KeepwithGroup property as well..
Now if the group goes over a page.. it should repeat the top section of your report for that company
I just worked around my issue. Added a row, placed the company name on that row and hid the entire row. In my header I added a textbox and used the expression ReportItems!CompanyName.Value.

SSRS How to repeat the table header on each page in print preview

I have an SSRS report, for some reason the header is not repeating on all of the pages in the print preview mode. Below is the image of the table:
I have as well checked the Repeat Header rows on each page option as below:
I would like the headers to repeat on every page.
To repeat rows with column headings for a table with row groups
In Design view, select the table. The Grouping pane displays the row groups.
On right side of the Grouping pane, click the down arrow, and then click Advanced. The Grouping pane displays static and dynamic tablix members for each group. You can only set properties on a static tablix member.
In the Row Groups pane, click the static tablix member for the row that you want to repeat. When you select a static tablix member, the corresponding cell on the design surface is selected, if there is one. The Properties pane displays the properties for the selected tablix member.
Set the KeepWithGroup property in the following way:
For a static row that is above a group, click After.
For a static row that is below a group, click Before.
Set the RepeatOnNewPage property to True.
Here i got a solution :
1. In the Tablix properties check the boxes for: Repeat header rows on each page and Keep header visible while scrolling.
make sure that the column headrs check boxes are NOT checked.
2. In the Group pane on the left (Row Groups) the first line is static.
3. set its: "ReapetOnNewPage" property to TRUE
set its: "FixedData" property to TRUE
set its: "KeepWithGroup" property to AFTER

ssrs - repeat tablix at top of every page

I have a report made up of 2 tablix.
The first tablix just has some basic information in it, and is linked to a dataset.
The second tablix is linked to a different dataset and is made up of a lot of rows and spans multiple pages.
All I am looking to do is have the first tablix be displayed at the top of every page.
I cant add it to a header because you can't add a tablix containing data to a header.
I also don't want to just repeat column headers, because I need the entire tablix repeated.
Depending on how your Tablix is set up you could do the following:
• Select Tablix Properties and check column Headers > Repeat Header columns on each page In the grouping pane in advanced mode (click on small black down arrow on far right of grouping pane); select the corresponding (static) item in the row group hierarchy.
• In the properties grid, set RepeatOnNewPage to true and Keep with Group to After

SSRS format rows on report

I have a simple report that groups rows on PERSON then on DATE. I have these two groups in the grouping pane with the DETAILS GROUP below.
The trouble with this is that I end up with PERSON AND DATE appearing at the top of the first 2 columns on the left, but the rest of these two columns are just empty space which is wasting a lot of space on the left hand side of the page.
How can I format so that I keep the same grouping but have the PERSON and DATE appearing together on the first row only with all other data displayed below. This grouping would then show again as a single row whenever the group changes (which it does at the moment, but with loads of dead space on the page on the left hand side)
I've tried adding a 'column group' of PERSON AND DATE, but this ends up with the report being massive horizontally.
thanks
You could put your table control inside a list control and give them both the same datasource and grouping. Then put your PERSON and DATE fields in the list control and position them as you like. The table would only be there to display the detail and wouldn't have fields for PERSON and DATE.
Just Right click on the Grouping Column that was automatically added on the Tablix, and Delete that Column.
And, You have additional Two rows (Group header) above the Detail row : Person Group, and Date Group.
Simply, Select the Cells inside that Row, and Right click and Merge So, that you only have a Single Cell inside the Group Header. And, Write an expression inside that Cell according to your Group Header Requirement i.e. If you want to Show Person : PersonName in Group header of Person Group Then, Merge and Right click on that cell and Goto Expression then Type :
="Client : " + DataSet!Fields!FieldName
Do, the Same for the Another Date Group.
I hope you understoood.

Report group headings not repeating on every page

I have an RDLC report with three tables and associated data sets. In my second table, I cannot get the two 'header' rows to repeat on each printed page. When viewed interactively, each table is on its own page and this isn't a problem. When I switch to print layout, e.g. my second table now spans two pages, and the second page gets no header rows.
Am I missing a setting or something?
ADDED: I do have the 'Repeat Header columns on each page' checked.

That should help you out for getting them to repeat. (some of the time)
I still have an issue where I set the hidden value to an expression for the next group header that some of the time it won't render my group header on the next page. Very annoying. If someone knows of a fix for this please let me know.

Have you ticked "Repeat header rows on each page" on the table properties?
(Right-click the table > properties)
