Hello,
Here is the scenario,
I have two reports and from .net UI, I have option to print them seprately or both at the same time. Both reports have different designs. What is the best possible way for third option? i.e printing both the reports together. Basically, these are invoices with different formats.
Any help will be greatly appreciated
Thanks...
 
2 options:
(1) Create a main report that pulls invoice number. Add your different report formats as subreports in separate header or footer sections.

(2) Or you can have one of your reports set to be the main report and add a table at the bottom of the report as a footer section and drop your alternate format in as a subreport.

Whichever option you choose, just be sure to set a page break before or after your table to start your alternate format on a new page.

This has always worked well for me in the past.
