Repeating Groups

  • The Repeating Groups facility is for constructing tables and form reports where more than one record may be present in the report. Individual fields that contain multiple values must also be defined as a repeating group for all values to be shown.

  • To create a repeating group, select the field, table, row, or the block of content to be repeated and click Repeating Group.

  • Select Absolute Path if the XML contains the same element names within different parent elements.

  • Set any grouping or sorting requirements and then click OK.

  • Repeating groups are shown between each (F) and end (E) markers.

  • Once the repeating group has been applied, it can be amended by right-clicking the F or G marker and opening the BI Publisher Properties dialog box.

    The Advanced tab contains the code equivalent of the rules, which can also be edited.
