Section is use to divide the entire reports in the different parts depending upon different values of the same object.
Eg: u want to perform section on "year", and if u have 2000, 2001, and 2002 year data,
then after applying section u will get data of 2000, 2001,2002 yr seperatly on report pannel.

Sections are as below:
1. Report Header
2. Page Header
3. Details
4. Report Footer
5. Page Footer
We can create multiple sections by right click on the particular section or dynamically we can create.

Section is basically a grouping functionality in BO.
Say a block(layout) is having data for different country and if you apply a section on the country then the blocks data will be specific to that country.Single block will be splitted into multiple block based on number of countries

Hi Vignesh,
I have some doubts in sections.
I have many reports which is related to the Main template. dynamically I create sections and add the text objects to the report section. if the Section name is same for more than one report I should have only one text object. how do we do this.
eg:
Section Name: "Certificate Payment" report has two reports
so it should display like below:
Main Report
contents
Section 1
Certificate Payment
report 1
report 2
Section 2
Accrual payment
report 1
section 3
process payment
report 1
report 2
report 3
please let me know if you have answer for this.

In BO we have better way to represent the Data so User can have better View and Understanding.
We do have Section and Breaks.
Section: when you use section. The Column which you have applied section on it It comes out of the box and make as a Heading of the Block. Also have a Good Advantage that you can have separate Charts for every Section in your report. you can also Navigate your section in your report via Map option in Query Manager.
Note: Last two option is not support in Breaks.
Good Luck..... lionskashif

Section divides the Report in various parts based on the simillar entities.
If we want report for US and France Seperately, we can apply sections to view different reports for both.
