I created Report which is embedded with one subreport, when i Run the report then In some cases the last record of subreport is repeated on next page. I tried putting a float line just after the detail band of subreport but its not reflecting any changes. has someone also faces this earlier, please share how to tackle this

I am using Jaspersoft Report to compile a report that consists of a multitude of subreports.
They all have 1 Title and 1 Detail Band.
I manage to fit most of them onto one page, so up until now it was enough to put them in the Main Reports Detail/Summary Section, put a Page-Break underneath and put the next one there.
But since my Objects should be visible when working with the file, I inevitably ran out of space on the first Detail-Band of my Main Report, and added another.
The first subreport in the new Detail Band contains a list, the size of which I have no control over, since it's not a chart, the object I usually work with. So it now spans ~ 2 1/4 page.
I put it in the main Report, it creates it's own page just fine (starts on the page after the subreport before it ended) but when I put a page break afterwards, and add my new Subreport below, what happens is that the title of the new subreport is printed right into the 2nd page of the List, while the Detail of the new Report is printed on the page after that.
So Basically:
Design:
Break
Subreport 3 Pages
Break
Subreport 1 Page
Preview:
Break
Subreport
Page 1
Page 2 Title of the next Subreport overlapping the List
Page 3 Details of the next Report overlapping the list
Page 4 Empty Page
The brute force approach of "just put the newer Subreport onto a new Detail-Band solved the issue. Still would be nice to know a less dirty method.
I am new to JasperReports, basically I want to put a subreport in a mainreport
The problem is that I put the sub report in the Detail band, so when I query a database that has multiple data the subreport will always repeat itself multiple times when I output the report to a pdf. I want a report that does not repeat itself regardless of how many data I have in the database that i connect with
I have searched the Internet and the solutions is to add
new Boolean($V{REPORT_COUNT}.intValue()==1)
in the print when expression attribute of the subreport, that does solve a part of my problem due to the fact that now my subreport only prints once but it still leaves some blank pages after my subreport is displayed
So I assume it is still repeating itself but just doesn't print the data because of the expression that I added , people say that the nature of the detail band is supposed to work that way and that I shouldn't put the subreport in the detail band, but if I put it in some other band I get this error:
Error filling print... Subreport overflowed on a band that does not support overflow.
The error above will happen if I have a lot of data to the extent that it may take up more than a page.
How do remove those blank pages? If I am ask to not put it in a detail band then what should I do? or what solution are there?
The Detail band will be generated as many times as the number of records you have in your main dataSet(populated by the top-level query).
If you want to keep the subreport in the Detail band, which is normal by the way, you can do one of these things:
either have a dummy query that returns only one record, so that the Detail band generates only once. Then, pass the report connection to your subreport. You may have done that already. This way you can run your query independently of the main report.
or leave the report as-is and add your printWhen expression ($V{REPORT_COUNT}.intValue()==1) directly on the Detail band, not on the subreport. Please note that this is just an ugly hack that may affect the report performance. Your main query still returns a lot of data that you don't use so you should consider the other options.
If you can move the subreport out of the Detail band, place it in a band that allows overflow like Title or Summary band. Then:
have your main dataSet's query empty so that no Detail band gets generated
set whenNoDataType="AllSectionsNoDetail" at the report level(in the <jasperReport> tag) so that all the other sections except the Detail get generated
exactly as in the first option above, pass the report connection to your subreport and work from there

I am struggling to fix a subreport where data is obtained at the point when the main report is generated and the subreport to be displayed as a link, similar to an on demand subreport.
The issue that I have if I use a non on demand subreport is that it cannot be represented as a link, it is displayed inside the main report. As well as an on demand report is not suitable to my case because the data is retrieved when the subreport is opened.
I would appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance!
You have to take the another header for subreport and also drilldown the Header and on the Suppress formula write the formula Drilldowngrouplevel = 0 and for the Sub Report take the another detail section and on the supress formula write the formula Drilldowngrouplevel = 0.
This will definitely work, because I tried it.
Can you add a group level to the subreport and add a single line into the group header?
This will mean you will have to drill down twice to get the data though.
I am using iReport 3.7.6 to create this report.
I have a report based off of an XML file. There is a 2-column master report and it has a detail band with a subreport.
I have a field called "Name" in the subreport. I want it to print at the top of every page. Or even at the top of every column. I have tried virtually everything I know how to do.
"Print When Detail Overflows" doesn't work, because this setting is in the detail.
I sure hope I don't need to create a subreport for every report break I want. I'll have like 4 or 5 subreports.
Is there some way to determine when the page has changed, and then use that event in a "Print When" expression?
Here is one solution, presuming the value does not change between pages:
Write a query for a subreport that obtains only the Name value.
Change the dimensions of the subreport to be as small as necessary.
Place the subreport in the page header band of the master report.
To answer your question accurately, more details (such as pictures of what you have versus what you want) would be helpful.
you can use pageCount variable which is implicitly available in jasper reports to know whether the page has changed or not.
