Best way to combine reports?

I have 3 separate reports, all have the same 1 criteria that the user must enter (comapny ID), to run the report. What's the easiest way to combine all three of these reports into 1, so that the user doesn't have to enter the same company ID 3 times?

Each report is 1 page, and formatted for individual view. But is there a better way of doing this? I mean, should I have 1 master report with the header and footer, and each of these reports as a subreport? Or do I just take the 1st report, and make the other 2 sub reports in that report? Is there a way to make sure that each one starts on it's own page?

Thanks so much! Any advice is appreciated, thanks!
 
You can put a subreport in its own section of the report footer - or header, if you'd prefer. You can also specify that the section should begin on a new page. Right-click and select [Format Section].
