The data source for paged reports is Power BI Desktop, which is linked to a SharePoint DataFlow

@Anonymous search for how to remove duplicate values in SSRS, at end of the paginated report is the same as SSRS and you should be able to bring that SSRS logic in paginated reports. What is your data source for paginated reports?
