RE: [Axapta-Knowledge-Village][development-axapta] Crystal Reports and Axapta?

[Kevin Krieger]

We are on Axapta 2.5 and use Crystal for anything other then the "Vanilla" reports contained in Axapta. I've recently updated to Crystal XI which is server based and web accessible, so now my users can access any of my reports from inside the enterprise or via the Internet. Report development, if you know Crystal, is pretty straight forward, you really just need a understanding of Axapta's table's and fields for content. The rest, at least in Crystal Developer 11 is drag and drop. Let me know if you need more info.   Kevin S Krieger Information Systems Manager Subaru Industrial Engines Robin America, Inc.

Maurice,    Do you have any examples, or any suggestions you could point out to me. Do you think you could get a simple example, or maybe some information of where they replaced an Axapta Report with a Crystal Report - Report?   thanks, Brandon From: Axapta-Knowledge-Village@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Maurice Cohen Sent: Friday, August 26, 2005 2:47 PM To: Axapta-Knowledge-Village@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [Axapta-Knowledge-Village][development-axapta] Crystal Reports and Axapta? Hi Brandon,   One of customer is using Crystal reports with Axapta and is pretty happy with it.

So we are investigating how easy it is just to scrap the Axapta Reports, and do all reports in Crystal Reports?   Has anyone ever done this before? Does anyone have any examples of using Crystal Reports and Axapta? Does anyone have any experience at doing such a thing?   thanks in Advance, in advise on this - either it's bad or good, or examples, any input at all please give it!   thanks, Brandon Sharing the knowledge on Axapta.
