Hi everyone,
I'm working on an RDLC layout for a Sales Invoice in Business Central, and I need some help with the layout formatting.
Specifically, I want the "Total" section to always appear at the bottom-right of the page — just like in a printed invoice with a fixed layout — regardless of the number of lines in the invoice (which can vary, but has a max of 25).
So basically:
-If there are fewer lines, I want to add some blank space (or visual padding) to push the total down.
-If there are 25 lines, the total should naturally be at the bottom.
-The goal is to keep a consistent layout height, whether the invoice has 5 lines or 25.
Is there a best practice or recommended way to insert this kind of blank space in RDLC?
Thanks in advance for any guidance!
Hi there,
If you're working on an RDLC layout for a Sales Invoice in Business Central and want the "Total" section to always appear at the bottom-right of the page, regardless of the number of invoice lines (up to 25), here’s a reliable approach:
RDLC supports a Page Footer, which is ideal for placing totals that should consistently appear at the bottom of the page.
Open the RDLC layout in Visual Studio.
Add a Page Footer:
Place Total Fields in the Footer:
Bind Data Correctly:
Control Line Overflow:
Let me know if you need help with a sample layout or expressions.
