Places the information to appear on the first page of the report. The Report Header typically provides a summary of the report contents and often includes a company name or logo. Only one Report Header can exist in a report.

Places the information to appear at the top of each page of the report. By default, the Page Header displays the Windchill Risk and Reliability logo in the upper left corner. In the upper right corner, it displays a Page # label followed by Page Number, a special field. You can move these objects to another section or delete them. In addition to the page number, the Page Header typically includes any details about the report contents. When data fields are inserted in the Details section, the labels for these fields are inserted in the bottom line of the Page Header, where they act as headers for the fields displayed in the next section. For example, if you are designing a Report Design file that reports on incidents by failure modes, in the Details section, you might insert the following fields: Incident ID, Description, Incident Date, and Operating Hours. The labels for these fields are inserted in the Page Header.

Indicates the beginning of a Group section, which displays the fields by which to sort or group data. Group Headers appear in the Report Design file only if they are created during the insertion of sorting and grouping criteria. For more information, see Inserting a Sorting or Grouping Criterion.

Places the data fields to include in the report. When a report is printed, the Details section is repeated for every record meeting the filter criteria. In a Report Design file for reporting on incidents by failure modes, you might want to insert the following Incident data fields in the Details section: Incident ID, Description, Incident Date, and Operating Hours. (This also inserts the labels to the Page Header as described above.) When the report is previewed or printed, the values for these fields appear in the report. The Details section must contain actual database fields to print properly. If the Details section contains only special fields, which are generally used in the Page Header and Page Footer, the Report Design file is viewed as empty and so this particular report is not printed.

Indicates the end of a Group section. Group Footers appear in the Report Design file only if they are created during the insertion of sorting and grouping criteria. For more information, see Inserting a Sorting or Grouping Criterion.

Places the information to appear at the bottom of each page of the report. Generally, the Page Footer contains special fields. The special field Page Number might be moved to this section. Or, the special field Print Date, which displays the date that the report is generated, might be inserted.

Places the information to appear as a summary for the report. Only one Report Summary can exist in a report, and it always appears at the end of the report.
