Each report
section can be divided by one or more group breaks. Each group break
is based on a category or hierarchy level. It groups the data for
each distinct value of that category or hierarchy level. Group breaks
are applicable when your report uses data items selected from a data
source.
These
features are options when creating a group break. They are discussed
in this chapter:
-
You can include a measure value
with each group break level.
-
You can sort each level in ascending
or descending order.
-
If you select a page break to go
with each group break, the report displays a table of contents for
navigation.
The following
advanced group break features are discussed in other parts of this
documentation:

-
Reports with group breaks can be
distributed to targeted recipients based on the breaks. For example,
you have a sales report with group breaks on regions. Each sales manager
in the recipient list could receive information on his or her respective
region only.
