The design of a report is divided into sections that divide the report vertically. Each report section represents a specific area on the report page and defines what items can be placed in it and how they will look.

Each report consists of sections that divide the report vertically and [report items](#report-items) that you place in each section. A report section represents a specific area on the report page and defines what items can be placed in that area and how these items will appear.

By default, every new report you create has three sections:

## Page Footer
37+
38+
The Page Footer section appears at the end of every page. Use the Page Footer to print page numbers or page-specific information. You can hide the Page Footer on pages of your choice, for example, on all even pages or on the first and last page of the report. By hiding this section, you can free page space for the rest of the report content.

40+
## Detail Section

The Detail section displays the detailed information and is printed once for every row in the data source. This is where you place the report items that constitute the main body of the report.

## Table of Contents

The Table of Contents (TOC) is a list that contains links to the report items along with their page numbers. Clicking a link in the TOC takes the user to the page that contains the specified report item. You can display the TOC before or after the Report Header or Report Footer.

The Group Header section is printed at the beginning of each new group of records. Use the group header to print the group name. For example, in a report that is grouped by product, use the group header to print the product name.

Report groups allow you to visually separate logically related data sets. To show the group boundaries and display introductory and summary information for each group, you can use group header and footer sections. For example, you can use different report groups to represent the detailed sales data for each region, and the group header may contain the name of the region while the footer can contain the total number of sales for that specific region.
