Split

In November 2023, report outputs were streamlined allowing the following new features:

• Ability to select if a table should split or be kept together
• Ability to insert a page break on a table row

A consequence of this update, is that tables which span more than one page may have a blank page before it. Microsoft Word tries to keep the table together by moving it to a new page. To resolve this, such tables should be set to Allow break across pages - Yes.
