SSRS Page Break Before Rectangle Not Working?

I have got to be missing something simple here, but I’m not sure what it is.

I am modifying a custom version of the PO Form. I added a row to the end of Group 1 (which is grouped by PO Number). I added a rectangle to that row. I set the rectangle properties to “Add a page break before.” I added a text box to the rectangle with my T&C text hard-coded. The properties confirm that there is a page break on the rectangle and the text box is within the rectangle. However, when I print, there is no page break before the T&C text.

Can someone help my sanity? :slight_smile:

Does Group 1 properties have KeepTogether = True?

Wondering if that may trump an internal break?? Just a stab in the dark.

Do you get a better result if your T&C’s are placed outside of Group 1? That’s what I did on my Quote. T&C’s are in an added row/rectangle w/ page break before… but I’m outside of the groups all together.

Thanks for brainstorming with me!

KeepTogether = False for Group 1.

I wondered about placing the T&C completely outside of the groups, but wasn’t sure how that would work if they did a Mass Print of the POs.

My current workaround was to add a parent group to Group 1 that is also grouped on PONum, then add the rectangle to the footer of the new parent group. I set the page break settings on the parent group to “Between each instance of a group” and left the same settings on Group 1. So far, it appears to be pushing a break after both groups, giving me a new page for my T&C but, in theory, would still work with printing of multiple POs with Mass Print.

That doesn’t seem to be the most efficient option though and I would have thought the regular page break settings would have worked!
