How to Add One Document (Report) Per Page

In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, you can create a report that generates one page per record in the dataset. This is often referred to as a “one report per page” scenario. To achieve this, you’ll typically use the RDLC (Report Definition Language Client-Side) report designer, which is the default reporting tool in Business Central. Here are the general steps to create such a report:

Step 1: Insert table in a report.
