Reporting Services :: SSRS Grouping And Page Break

Example: A sales report that details and summarizes each Salesperson’s total sales within a company’s stores that reside in each state. 

The report has 3 levels of groupings where the highest 2 levels require summary counts on a separate page and the lowest level produces a summary count in the midst of the detail lines of the report.

The data consumed by the report is ordered by State, Store ID, and Salesperson. 

The header of each page lists the State and Store ID.  The detail lines of the report list items sold and the associated sales amount for each item sold by each store’s salesperson. 

At the end of each Salesperson’s items sold, a summary line is listed on the next line in the report showing the total amount and total count of items sold by that Salesperson. 

The very next line on the report lists items sold and the associated sales amount for the next Salesperson within that particular store. 

Summary lines will be produced for each Salesperson within each particular store on the next line of detail in the report.

At the end of all sales data for each store, a summary page is produced on a separate page listing the summary of each Salesperson’s totals. 

Each line of the summary page contains the same counts for each Salesperson that was embedded in the detail section of the report. 

The summary page also contains a grand total line listing the total count and sales for all salesmen within each given store.

At the end of all sales data for each state a summary page is produced on a separate page listing the summary of each store’s totals. 

Each line of the summary page contains the grand totals of all sales for each store within a given state. 

The summary page also contains a grand total line listing the total count and sales for all stores within each given state.

The simple breakdown is the groupings and totals for each state and store must be listed on a separate page in the report. 

The grouping and totals for each Salesperson must be listed on the next line within the detail section of the report. 

Current issue: The requirement is for no page break at the end of each salesperson’s sales data because the page breaks produce too many extra pages in the report. 

Disabling the page break at the Salesperson level produces format issues such as page headers printing on the next line in the report before each Salesperson’s summary line. 

Disabling the page breaks at this level also produces the problem of suppressing the page break for the summary page that comes at the end of each store.

Question:The report has 3 levels of grouping with Salesperson at the lowest level, Store ID being the parent group of Salesperson, and State being the parent group of Store ID.  Is it possible to format the Salesperson summary line (lowest level grouping) as just another detail line in the report without impacting the report format that requires page breaks at the parent group levels?
