If you are merging a report after another report and you do not want specific literal fields displayed on the overlap page, you can blank them out using the Report Literals screen. To display the Report Literals screen press PF16 from the Report Definer screen, or type in the command
LITERAL in the primary command field.
To blank out a literal field on the overlap page, type Y in the BlankOverlap field next to the field that you want to blank out. Press PF3 to save the changes or PF12 to cancel changes. In either case you return to the Report Definer screen.
