==Setting the Field to Link the Reports==
Next you will specify the field that both reports have in common.
1. Set the '''Parent''' field and '''Child''' field to '''Company Name'''.
The report now displays the contacts for each department below the department heading. This heading only appears once for each contact.
System administrators can also specify that the reports should be linked using values from a column of the parent report. This allows for a greater flexibility in creating sub-reports, as administrators are no longer limited to using standard fields to link main reports and subreports, and can now specify a custom field.
In the example below the field '''Grant Type - codes''' is a custom field that has been included as a column in the parent and child report. As a result the System Administrator is able to select this column option when trying to link the 2 reports.

If you use [[SmartDoc for Microsoft Word Overview|SmartDoc for Microsoft Word]] you can create formatted tables for each sub-report.
