Note title Notes Regarding Crystal Reports in Aptify - Aptify installs the files needed to load (but not create) Crystal Reports. To create new Crystal Reports, a report writer uses a licensed copy of Crystal Reports (2008 or XI R2) or the Crystal Reports designer included with Visual Studio.
- Crystal Reports XI R2 is also known as Crystal Reports 11.5. Aptify is not compatible with Crystal Reports XI (11), and reports will not load properly if a user has this version installed on his or her computer. Crystal Reports XI R2 is a free upgrade to Crystal Reports XI and is available for download on the Business Objects website.
- If the report displays data from one or more HTML or XML fields, the HTML tags should not appear within the report if the report designer followed Aptify's best practice recommendations for writing Crystal Reports for use with Aptify. See Note Concerning HTML and XML Fields in Crystal Reports for more information.
Note title Notes Regarding SSRS Reports in Aptify - Your environment must have Aptify 5.5.4 installed to use SSRS reports.
- You must configure Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services on your system to use this feature. See Setting Up Aptify to Use SQL Server Reporting Services.
- SSRS report entries in the Object Repository should point to the Report Server URL (such as https://<ServerName>/<SSRSServerName>?/<ReportsFolderName>), which you can specify when installing 5.5.4, as described in Installing Aptify 5.5.4 Server Software
- If the report displays data from one or more HTML or XML fields, the HTML tags should not appear within the report if the report designer followed Aptify's best practice recommendations for writing Crystal Reports for use with Aptify. See Note Concerning HTML and XML Fields in Crystal Reports for more information.
