Question

I'm using Report-designer 3.6.1, and I encountered a recurring problem with one of my reports.

When I print the report, sometimes the result is missing pages. The report prints seven pages out of nine, the last page displaying a page count of 7/9. Also on the last page, the footer is missing as if it were not configured.

This problem happens randomly (or in a particular pattern that I can't grasp). All other reports are fine. They all print the footer, and all the pages.

If you need more info leave comments, I will try to respond to the best of my knowledge, because I am new with this tool.

Here is how we setup the report

Master report:

  • Page header
    1. Some fields that are printed on each page;
  • Details
    1. Sub-report #1: List all attributes of each product;
  • Report Footer
    1. Empty
  • Page Footer
    1. Some text fields;
    2. Page count (totalPageCount function);

Sub-report #1:

  • Group Header: Empty;
  • Detail
    1. Collumn headers;
    2. Sub-report #2: List some attribute values for each product;
  • Group Footer
  • Report Footer
    1. Text field with a message.

Sub-report #2:

  • Detail
    1. Attribute's name;
  • Report Footer: Attribute's value;
Was it helpful?

Solution

Problem resolved.

Source: I found out that my sub-report #2 was probably overlapping the header's columns from the Sub-report #1.

Solution: I moved the Sub-report #2 down by approximately 10px, so that it doesn't overlap anymore.

After that, the report printed out with all the necessary pages.
