    Hi sanpanico 

    Please try to do the following:

    1. Delete any existing groups that aren't working correctly

    2. Create the parent group first:

      • Right-click on your tablix → Add Group → Parent Group

      • Group by: [Region] (or whatever your regional field is called)

      • Check "Add group header"

      • This creates your top-level grouping (like "Miami Region")

    3. Add the child group:

      • Right-click on the parent group → Add Group → Child Group

      • Group by: [Office] (or your office/resident office field)

      • Check "Add group header"

      • This creates your second-level grouping (like "Atlanta Resident Office")

    4. Add case details:

      • The "Details" group should automatically show individual case records

      • Make sure your detail rows display the case information (Case Number, Warrant Status, etc.)

    5. Sorting:

      • For each group, set the sorting to be alphabetical:

        • Right-click the group → Group Properties → Sorting

        • Add sort by the grouping field (e.g., [Region] for parent, [Office] for child)
