How to add blank rows on a RDL table in between groups?

  • Dear SQLServerCentral members and administrators:

    Hello, a pleasant day to all.

    I am creating an RDL with a dropdown of approximately 50+ companies about their purchases. Is there a way to separate them with a blank row in RDL to separate each company every time I generate report? It is something like:

    Company | Purchase Order | Purchase Date

    =============================================================

    Company A | AB-001 | 12-03-2014

    Company A | AB-908 | 12-04-2014

    <blank row here>

    Company B | ZD-115 | 12-01-2014

    Company B | DF-123 | 12-04-2014

    Company B | AF-908 | 12-05-2014

    In addition, I would like to do this in RDL (if there's a code/strategy for it), because the stored procedure was made by a colleague and I am not allowed to modify such, I was just assigned to create an RDL for that stored procedure.

    Thank you all and have a nice day ahead. 🙂

    Respectfully Yours,

    MarkSquall

  • Here's how I did it.

    Steps:

    1. addd a tablix to your report.

    2. Add Company, PurchaseOrder, PurchaseDate fields to the tablix.

    3. Right-click the body line (with the lines).

    4. Add Group: Parent Group

    Group by: Company

    Check Add group footer

    Click Okay.

    5. Now we have company1, Company, Purchase Order, Purchase Date.

    Delete the leftmost column (Company1).
