I am trying to produce multipage invoices using REPORTER.
I have created an invoice record which contains
Multivalue list of keys to get the Order line details - Qty Desc and price;
The Total value of all orders.
The carriage, Insurance etc.
The Total vat
The Invoice Total.
Symbolic calculated fields to get descriptions, name & address
The Problems are:-
I cannot get the Page Header details to repeat on the pages within each Group (Invoice Number)
(Only prints once, on first page)
Symbolic fields from the record will NOT show on the Group Footers.
Total details do not appear on the LAST Group Footer.
I am using a Basic + GETLIST in the Query.
Also:
Are the Group break values available to do further calculations?
I could calculate Vat and the invoice Total if I could get at them,
Instead of precalculating them in a separate process.

In my experience report footers are slightly problematic. In order for a table or calculated field to display on multiple pages, it will have to be a mv field set to display as a single field using right click MV Options.
To do this I would suggest either creating MV synonyms of the fields you wish to display and reference these fields in your report OR create calculated fields and set them as MV, then treat as Single as above.
NB Do NOT physically set siingle value tabular fields within reporter as MV using Right click as they will appear ok in preview, but will disappear when report is re-opened.
Regards and Goodluck!
