Sum on every page

mkorkus

Hello,

I use BIRT in 2.5.2 version. I have a problem with the creation of summing a column on each page. I need this aggregation below a column (column which I need to sum) as a new row in this table, and not in the footer or header.

My page break interval for the table = 0.

Here is a quite good example but in header and dosen't work when page break interval = 0 http://www.birt-exchange.org/org/devshare/designing-birt-reports/1247-page-totals-using-page-variables/.

Do you know any other solutions for this problem or some examples?

This method will work for interval = 0 if you upgrade to the newest version. There was a page break bug in older versions that caused issues when a natural page break occurred. Unless you force a page break in some way, I don't know that you'll be able to do this, because you won't know when to start summing and when to stop. If you can't specify a page break interval because of some multi-line text, you could add script to calculate the number of lines in your multi-line text and insert your own page breaks based on your calculations. This is something I've done to get around the multi-line rows before. If this isn't the reason, why can't you define a page break interval?
