    In a table like the one attached, where each row in the dataset maps to three detail rows in the table - how can we configure those three detail rows to stay together (ie - start a new page for a new row of data rather than split the three rows across two pages)?

    I feel like I’ve tried every possible configuration to try to make this work.

    Hi Katie,

    Try keeping the 3 details rows into a nested table and adding that nested table into the main table in place of the detail rows.

    Please see the attached sample with the mentioned format of table. You may use the structure same as that and let us know if it helps.

    If you face any issues, please share with us your sample report with sample data replicating the issue so that we may assist you further.

    Hi Katyayny - thanks for your response!

    I was unable to open your attached report in ActiveReportsJS Designer v2.2 - Error: The report “multisectionreport1” could not be opened.

    Is it possible there are files missing? Or is that maybe because we are on an older version of the app than you?

    Hi Katie,

    The issue is because my previously shared sample uses v5.1.5. Here’s your v2.2 sample. It’s a sample table without any data where we have demonstrated keeping the 3 details rows into a nested table and adding that nested table into the main table in place of the detail rows.

    We hope this helps!
