Task B: Break Table Positioning
How Break Tables are Positioned
The position of a break table on the report is determined by its definition. The following table describes the positioning obtained depending on whether a body report table and/or control break field is specified for the report:
Title rows for the break table print immediately before the body report table that has this value as its control break field.
Table rows of the break table print immediately after the body report table that has this value as its control break field.
Title rows for the break table are printed before the title rows for the first page of the body report table.
Break Table Illustrated
The following table illustrates the above control break field positioning for the report MONTHLY_EXPENSE and the break table MONTH_BREAK.
