Here is the use case I'm trying to solve:
We have an invoice report that contains the invoice details on page 1 and then on page 2 we print the mailing and return addresses.  This report is printed on a duplex printer (on special paper) that also folds and seals each one so they can be mailed.

What we have now works perfectly for the majority of customers where the invoice details print on 1 page.  However, there are a few customers that have enough data that causes it to print on 2 pages, which messes up the duplex printing and mailers: page 1 = page 1 of invoice, page 2 = page 2 of invoice, page 3 = mailing info

I want to design the report in such a way, where all even numbered pages contain the mailing and return addresses and the odd numbered pages contain the invoice details.  End results are that any customer that has more than 1 page of data, will get more than 1 mailing printed correctly: page 1 = page 1 of invoice, page 2 = mailing info, page 3 = page 2 of invoice, page 4 = mailing info, etc.

I have been playing around with different things but can't come up with a solution that works 100%.

Here is what I have
RH - suppressed
PHa - suppressed PageNumber Mod 2 = 0 (prints on odd pages)
PHb - suppressed PageNumber Mod 2 > 0 (prints on even pages has mailing and return addresses)
GH1 - customer info
GH2 - item info
GH3 - item notes (could be multiple per item)
Details - suppressed
GF3 - suppressed
GF2 - suppressed
GF1 - totals
PF - suppressed
RF - suppressed

I need to take into consideration that the page break may occur any where, all groups have the "Keep Together" checked.

What I have works to some degree, except I cannot get just PHb to print on even pages, it always prints the next thing from the invoice.  I attempted to make the PHb section the same height as my paper minus margins, but get an error when running the report.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Try turning on "New Page After" for the PHb section.

Create a top - level GH1 Header where you'll put the address instead of a page header.  Make sure that "Repeat group header on every page" is turned on.  You can then suppress the other group header sections as needed.

The problem with "Suppress" is that you will "lose" any data that's suppressed.  If you'll run a copy of the report, turn on Save Data with Report, save it and send it to me (I'll pm you my email address) I'll take a look at it and see what I can do.
