1: Calling Crystal Reports from OPENACS?
Posted by Ramani Rajaraman on 06/05/07 06:51 PM
Is there a way that we can call Crystal Reports or any other reporting tool via OPENACS? My company has lot of Reports developed in Crystal Reports and Actuate Reporting Tool? How do I re use them in OPENACS?

Thanks
Ramani

Hi Ramani,

many of our customers use Crystal reports with our OpenACS systems, but not in an integrated manner (which is what I suppose you mean). Crystal has it's own database user and has been granted permission to view the OpenACS user's tables.
