Has anyone had this issue? Does anyone have a work around for this issue?
When the table header is set to ReapetOnNewPage = true and then the page breaks right on the last detail row, so the only thing left to display is the footer with the Totals: row, the header overlaps the footer row so it can not be displayed.
If the page breaks before the footer, it will do it correctly and on the next page will print the detail row then the footer row. But if only the footer is pushed to the next page, the repeated header covers it.
I know its being covered, because the border for the footer shows through on the edge.
You could try adding an extra blank footer row above your actual footer so that the header wouldn't overlap, but I'm afraid that may not look right when everything actually works as planned.
This appears to have been fixed with SSRS 2008 R2.

I have a report where by the page footer data appears on a pre formatted cheque paper. Therefore, the text box positioning of the footer items cannot change.
The problem is that in my report body I have a tablix. When the row count causes the report to display across more than 1 page, the footer data moves down about half an inch.
I've set the report header to appear only on the first page, and the report footer to appear only on the last page.
Does anybody know of a way to stop this shifting of footer data?
(The first image shows the footer rendered correctly when report on 1 page.
The second image shows the footer data moving down off the page when the report is more than 1 page)
Fixed. Issue was the average price expression in the footer wasn't rounded, pushing the text box down, and with it the rest of the footer data down.
I am trying to add a footer to my report, and have been requested to have it below the table as opposed to at the bottom of the page (no whitespace between table and footer).
To facilitate this, I was considering moving the contents of my footer into the table, however, I cannot merge the cells in the bottom row. I can merge the cells to the left or right of the circled group separator, however, the bottom row is not in a group.
How can I merge the bottom row, or at least have the appearance of the footer content being the entire width of the table? The Name group has page breaks set between each instance of a group, so I'm not sure if I'm even on the right track.
Currently:
Desired:
The page footer is the only area that will render on every page, but you cannot control the whitespace between the body content and the footer. The footer size is measured from the bottom of the page, whereas the header and body measure from the top down. If the body requires multiple pages, the renderer will determine how much body to put on each page, but the footer will still be measured from the bottom of the page. In other words, if you have an 8" page and a 6" body with a 1" footer, you'll have 1" of white space from the bottom of the body content until the start of the footer.
The footer of a table will not render until the detail contents are finished rendering, so if the detail requires more than a single page, the table footer will not show up on page 1.
I'm fairly certain that what you are asking for is not possible.
I have a report that looks good in view report, but when I print the report there is an extra space between the body and the footer.
Any help would be appreciated.
Screen shot
Don't use a footer if you don't want the white space. A footer will always appear at the bottom of a page and a header at the top. Move the content of your footer to the body of your report by either creating another tablix underneath or inserting a new row outside of all your current row groups. To get the page break select the last (bottom) row in your body, select 'tablix properties', then on the general tab select 'add page break after.'
Okay seems issues due to those hidden rows.
Do one thing, copy all your tablix/textbox or whatever the controls you have used inside the body part and add one rectangle with the same size it was previously using for your tablix.
Now, paste your copy part inside the rectangle and check.
It will definitely work.
Let me know, if you need more help on this.
Thanks.
I'm working on a SSRS report which has different formats for the first page and the overflow pages. The first page has a large footer that shouldn't be displayed on the overflow pages. I'm hiding it using an expression on current page number but it still occupies space. The body on overflow pages does not span the whole page and leaves a large blank space at the bottom. Is there any way to solve this?
Thanks in advance,
Sumit
There is not a good way to hide that empty space(As far I know. I did lot of research when I stuck with this issue.).But if you are showing footer only on the first page then add the footer content on the report content part and then set it's visibility depending on the page number. That way you are showing the footer content on first page only. And if you are repeating that page footer on last page that also works depending on condition and it doesn't occupy the empty space on the page.
I am using reporting services 2012 and want to display a group of elements at the bottom of the last page.
I have tried putting this in the footer and hiding the elements for all but the last page, however this doesn't work very well as there is a large blank space at the bottom of all of the preceding pages.
If there was a way of aligning the elements to the bottom of a page that would work, but I cant see any way of doing that. If there was a way to push the elements to the bottom of the page using a rectangle that has a dynamic height, that would also work, but I also cannot find a way of doing that.
Any suggestions?
Unfortunately, page headers and footers must be one constant size in SSRS. That is why you are getting all of that whitespace, and as far as I know, there is no workaround for this.
However, what you can do is page break at the end of your main table / report. Then have another table display the elements you want. Make this second table the height of a full page and put the elements at the bottom. Go into the Tablix Properties and check "Keep together on one page if possible".
If the second table doesn't work, try a subreport.
If you want to have the footer on the same page as the last page of data, this doesn't work. The only way I know of to do that is a major hack: check how many rows come back from the database and calculate how much space they will need to display. Then at the end calculate how big of a rectangle you need to make in between your main table and your second table to push it to the bottom of the page.
