Pagination and formatting for Reports

Pagination options let you configure layout, context, presentation, and formatting. These capabilities help ensure paginated reports are well-structured, easy to read, and consistently formatted.

This feature is in preview.

The following sections describe how to use pagination options, such as customizing the header and footer, formatting cells, and creating visual hierarchies in your reports.

Configure pagination

Go to Design > Header & Footer.
Select Pagination Controls and select the pagination style to apply.
Select the settings icon in the footer to configure the number of rows displayed per page.
To show data for a specific dimension category on each page: set Rows per page to Row Break. Select the dimension category, such as Region. This displays data grouped by the selected dimension on separate pages.

Select Header & Footer in the Design ribbon.
Choose from built-in header and footer presets.
Select the edit icon to enter custom header text.
Use the same icon to upload images to the header.

Format cells and column headers

Set the cell background and font color, apply text formatting (bold, italic, underline), and adjust the font type and size. Use Format Painter to copy formatting across multiple cells.
Use the column gripper to select Select Header, then apply the desired formatting.
Apply banded rows to improve readability by highlighting even and odd rows with different colors.

Add notes and annotations

Select a row category, column header, or cell. Select Notes > Add New Note. Use the rich text editor to enter and format notes. Select Save.
Enable Notes Column to enter row-level notes.
Enable Footnotes to view all cell, row, and column-level notes entered in the report.
