The report in this example displays six statistics for the sales for each manager's store. The output is too wide to fit all the columns on one page, so three of the statistics appear on the second page of the report. In order to make it easy to associate the statistics on the second page with their group, the report repeats the values of Manager and Sector on every page of the report.
