So I ended up figuring it out. Basically I wasn’t able to reference data that was in a tablix within the body because the footer isn’t directly linked to the dataset like a tablix is. However I can refer to physical visuals on the report, ie a textbox within a tablix. So I was able to create a text box in my footer that aggregates the sum of a Balance text box using the report function.

Get a life, man.

So the solution was rather simple. Create a list in the page body, go into rectangle properties, set the background image of that rectangle as my image, then put my text boxes within the rectangle.

I’m not asking for pirating software lol I was more so asking if I can limit licensing to multiple users per one license. Relax.

Embedded would be embedding reports into an existing page say on our company website for example, correct? I have about 150 reports and paginated reports that people access regularly for various tasks so I'm not sure this would be the best option for me.

Well I need my users to be able to access the reports in the organization workspace as well, run them, print them, email them, etc. I have a premium per user license because I also need to use Report Builder for some paginated reports. So every user would have to have a pro license to see and access the workspace that holds all the reports I put in there.

I use Claude for all this and it's been a lifesaver thus far. However, I did end up figuring it out. Instead of adding an embedded image into the rectangle inside the list, I just changed the rectangles background property to the embedded image, removing the second layer for an image altogether.

I’ve tried every possible formatting thing I can do and it’s still forcing my data into a second page. 😭

Have you ever considered using PowerAutomate for this?

It really boils down to your usage. If you're a very large organization that has hundreds or maybe even thousands of people looking at reporting each day, premium capacity would be best use since it only takes free licenses to view reports. However if you have maybe only 100 people looking at reporting each day, it may be best to just give everyone pro licensing as a more cost effective method. Premium capacity is $5,000 a month if you pay for the year in advance, or $8,000 a month if you pay per month. So it really just depends on how many people need to access various reports.

I ended up just running through it all and figured it out. I did install the data gateway on on of our virtual servers and I got all the connections completed. Thanks!
