Map Item for Page Break Report Parameter
Explanation
This activity is used to define an item for a page break report parameter. Once the page break parameter for a report is defined, it can be connected to
a Standard, and associated with items that the page breaks
will conform to, in a particular report. In doing so you can break pages
specifying a
maximum of two items per page break report parameter. You can also define more
than one page break per report by mapping the page break report parameter to a
different standard each time.
Prerequisites
A parameter must be defined in Report Configuration/Parameters.
System Effects
