Create simple page breaks

Simple page breaks use data items to define where your report starts a new page.

Procedure

  1. Click the data item at which the report should break to a new page.
  2. From the Structure menu, do one of the following:
    • To create a page break without creating a master detail relationship, click Set Page Break.

      This option only works if the data item is in a list or repeater. If the data item is in a crosstab or chart, IBM® Cognos® Report Studio creates a page break using a master detail relationship. Setting page breaks without using master detail relationships can improve performance when running the report.

    • To create a page break using a master detail relationship, click Set Page Break Using Master/Detail.

    Report Studio confirms the page break setting.

    Tip: To modify simple page break settings, pause the pointer over the page explorer button page explorer icon and click Report Pages, and then select and modify the page set.
