Paginated Report Page Break Fix
Budget: ₹100 – ₹400 INR
I have a Power BI Paginated Report (built in Report Builder, connected to a Power BI Dataset) whose main table keeps splitting at the very bottom of each page. The break occurs no matter how many rows are returned, and tweaking interactive or page size hasn’t helped. I suspect a row-height or KeepTogether setting, but I need an expert to confirm the root cause, correct the behaviour, and leave me with a clean, export-ready layout for both PDF and Excel.
Here’s what I need from you:
• Analyse the report, reproduce the “table breaking across pages” issue, and pinpoint exactly why it happens (row height is the leading clue).
• Apply the fix directly in the .rdl—whether that’s adjusting tablix properties, padding, page breaks, or any hidden keep-together logic—and verify the table flows correctly across pages.
• Share best-practice guidelines for paginated-report pagination, including any DAX or dataset considerations that might affect layout.
• Provide a quick hand-off note (or short call) summarising the change so I can replicate it in future reports.
Acceptance criteria
• No row is split when exported to PDF or Excel; page breaks occur naturally between full rows.
• Report renders without extra blank pages or performance degradation.
• I understand the change and can re-apply it myself.
If you live and breathe Report Builder, DAX, and paginated-report quirks, this should be a straightforward engagement. Let’s get this report paging perfectly.
