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.

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

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
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
I have a situation where i have to display four reports based on checkboxes. So user can select different combination from four reports.
My problem is page breaks. I have tried different options (see below) from which two options (option 1 and 2) does not give page breaks at all whether option 3 gives page breaks for each tablix regardless of you do not want to see that report. Report is giving empty page for each tablix no matter there is no data in that tablix to be displayed.
With option 3 if i select all reports to show then everything is perfect.
I have tried these options
Option 1 (page break does not work)
Main Tablix -> each row : all subreports within rectangle within each row of tablix
option 2 (page break does not work)
Main Tablix -> each row -> Another tablix with group by ID within each row of tablix and then subreport inside each tablix. And I applied page break end on each tablix.
option 3 (page break works but gives empty page for non selected reports)
A List group by ID -> within a single row of this list I have places four tablix group by ID for each subreport.
Option 3 works but gives empty page break for those reports which are not selected. For example from Four reports if you select last two reports to display then you will get two empty pages in the beginning of report and third report on third and fourth report on fourth page which is correct. I have tried hiding tablix using table hidden and group properties hidden but still getting page breaks.
Any help will be much appreciated.
I have resolved this issue. For those who are struggling with same kind of situation, here is my work around.
I placed one list box and then four tables in a row and i placed subreports within these tables. i didn't apply any page break here. I am only showing and hiding tables based on report selection here.
Trick is within subreports.
As there were lots of tables and groupings in each report so i placed one table at the end of the each subreport.
This table should only have one cell. I removed header and 2 extra columns which were not required. Select dataset for this table. I did not want to pass dummy empty dataset so I selected my dataset but I created grouping on a parameter which I was passing from parent report and it has value 1. So now this table will only display 1 empty row. Reduce the height of the table. Plus I removed the border of textbox inside the cell. I checked 'Page break at end' option. In the Hidden expression I used following code which checks if there is any report which is visible after this (current) report. If yes then do not hide this table mean you want page break otherwise hide it mean no page break.
=iif(Parameters!AddReport_2.Value,false
,iif(Parameters!AddReport_3.Value,false
,iif(Parameters!AddReport_4.Value,false
,true)))
This solution works for me.
I would love to hear for a better solution.
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 Repeat Page Header on each Page.
Repeat on NewPage Property is not appearing in ssrs 2008 tablix memeber property
After a little experimentation, I figured out how to consistently get the table header to repeat on every page.
The setting of the RepeatColumnHeaders property on the tablix seems to have no effect on this behavior. Instead, we have to set it on a static member of the row groups.
To see the static members of the row groups, click on the small drop down arrow on the far right of the row groups/columns groups header. Then select Advanced Mode.
With the static members of the row group shown, select the first one in the list. The top left cell of the tablix should be selected in the designer.
Now open the property pane and find the property RepeatOnNewPage and set it to True.
Then find the property KeepWithGroup and make sure it's set to After. If it's not, set it to After.
Now your table header will repeat on every page.
Depending on how you created your new report, the Tablix xml may or may not have attached the correct properties to the "Header" row of the tablix.
Here is another thread on SQL Server Central with the fix:
http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic593245-1063-1.aspx
Here is the important bit:
for SSRS 2008,
If a report with a table is created using the wizard feature (In Solution Explorer, right click on >Reports --> Add New Report) Table Headers will repeat on every page.
Instead if a report is created without using the wizard (In Solution Explorer, right click on Reports --> Add --> New Item) Table Headers will not repeat on every page. Setting Repeat Header (Rows/Columns) on each Page for the Tablix will not help either.
If you have already built the report and cannot rebuild using the steps above and if and only if you are comfortable altering the xml behind the rdl, do the following. (Save a Backup rdl first)
View Code.
Look for TablixRowHierarchy
Below that there will be a TablixMember that corresponds to the header row.
to that header and any other header rows ( Tablix Member) add the three element properties.
<TablixRowHierarchy>
<TablixMembers>
<TablixMember>
<KeepWithGroup>After</KeepWithGroup>
<RepeatOnNewPage>true</RepeatOnNewPage>
<KeepTogether>true</KeepTogether>
</TablixMember>
...
You should see the header rows repeating.
I tried this in my own Report and found it fixed the problem.
You could also turn on "Advanced Mode" in the Row/Column Groups window and then modify each Static Row entries "RepeatOnNewPage" setting. You'll probably have to set "KeepWithGroup" to "After" as well.
This works well if you utilize a subreport as your header.
You can repeat page headings on every page if your page breaks are due to breaks between groups (hard pagination). You cannot repeat page headings between pages if the pagination is due to a small interactive page size (soft pagination). To repeat page headers on each page between groups, make the headers of the tablix part of the group and under the General tab of the Tablix Properties window check Column Headers -> Repeat header rows on each page. You can also do this from the general properties window of the Tablix by using the RepeatcolumnHeaders = True.
Please note my comments are limited to developing SSRS 2008 reports in BIDS. I do not know if this functionality exists in Report Builder.
here the steps you can follow. this resolved the issue(column header on each page):
1) in design mode of rdl file, at bottom you will find "Row Groups" and "Column Groups" (left and right, respectively). Beside Column Groups you will find one arrow button.(this arrow button is right side of column groups protion). click on this arrow button.
2) Check the "Advanced Mode"
3) RowGroups section you will find "(static)" and "(Details)". click on static and press F4(to check it's properties.)
4) provide "Keep With Group" as "After"
5)Provide "Repeat On New Page" as "True"
6) Go back to table, Right click on row header, Go to tablix properties.
7) check on "repeat Header Column on each page" and "repeat Header column on each Rows"
Hope this will help you.
