Report row border and header border problem when more rows present

Hi,

 

I'm a fairly new Alteryx user using the reporting module and I've run into a problem.

I have a large table/file with over 1200 rows. When I publish this in a report pdf format, for some reason the row borders just do not apply for the end of the page rows. It just seems to taper off into the next page

This is how the header and rows appear on the first page.

I want the same thing to repeat for each page of the report. But that row border seems to disappear from the 2nd-page header and footer and all subsequent page headers. The column borders seem to go down without a row header/line at the end and beginning of the page.

 

Any suggestion on what I should do to fix this?

@anirudh1,

 

Any chance that you can post the workflow with sample data so that the Community can see what your setup is within the tools?

Hi Dan,

 

Thanks for reply.

I've attached a test data set and the workflow I use to generate the report.

As you can see the end of each page seems to have the row border line disappear towards the end of the page. The same thing happens to the header row boundary of the next page.

 

Can you please let me know how to fix this?

 

Thanks,

Gopal

@anirudh1,

 

 

I have attached a solution for you. The only bad thing about this is that you will have to know how many rows you will have on a page. I had to change the font type on my end as I didn't have the font you are using so you may need to change the number in the Formula tool.

@anirudhi,

 

The only other thing that I would suggest would be to look into a batch macro, but due to the fact that the Table Tool will only put that line on the bottom of the data. You will need to know how many rows will be on the page.

Got it! Thank you so much.
