How to display table footer for every page

I have a requirement where the table footer row need to displayed in all pages.

Attaching the design file and sample output fyr.

For Example, Currency: 124 and Currency: 141 data split across 2 pages. In such a case also, I need to display additional page footer row (Something similar to Currency: 496 last row)

Kindly advise how to achieve this in BIRT Reporting.

Thanks and Regards,
Muthul.

The footer of the table does not have an option to repeat on each page. The masterpage footer repeats on each page if there's something you can put in it to achieve what you're wanting. Another option would be to use an interval grouping on your table that is set to an interval that will fit on a page and page break after each interval group. Then there would be a group footer for each interval group that would appear as the last line on each page.

Thanks Michael for your reply.

Adding extra row to the masterpage footer will display incorrectly on the last page. Interval grouping option will also reflect different page size based on grouping and may not serve the purpose.

Anyways thanks for your help. If by chance you find any solution to the above problem, please let me know.

Muthul, 
 
Only thing I can think up is avoid page break inside the group. This will mean youl have some blank spots but would keep he footers together. 
 
A more complex approach could be that you script with counting the rows (youl need to keep track of headers and footers on the page bc row numbers are only for the detailed row. 
 
And make a visibility rule to a group that has the same data as the footer. I never done this and I think its possible in theory but it hangs heavy on Javascript on the onCreate and onPagebreak etc. 
 
And I know that onPagebreak event isnt perfect (it seems to not triger always when its a page break becouse the table does not fit on a page in pdf for example). I dont have an example for this tipe of complexety by rule we say that its impossible.

What issue are you having with the extra row on the last page when using the masterpage footer? You could hide the extra row on the last page if that's the only issue.

Thanks Michael.

As a last option, yes I will add the row to footer page and try resolve.
