what is the difference between breaks and sections?

Answer Posted / naidu

Break:
If we apply break on an object/dimension it removes the
duplicate instances of an object unique value and the break
groups the small amout of data and displays the grand total
for the block.

If we apply charting for the above table/block,it will give
a single chart for all the groups i.e for all values of an
object.

Section:
If we apply section on an object it gives us the master
detailed report(multiple blocks) for every instance of an
unique value of an object/dimension and it gives us the sub
totals for very group/block i.e for every value of an
object. If we apply charting on the Sectional report,it
will generate a separate chart for every sectional value.
