Business Objects Up Crystal Reports Adv Dev vx>10 EN CD RVUCC010 User Manual

Do the applications you design generate or rely on data that you must present to users in a

clear format? Is it easy to connect to the data when designing your applications? How much

code must you write to format and arrange data within your presentation layer? Can you

re-use the results? How much time do you spend on presentation-layer maintenance to

address ever-changing user requirements? 

Designed for use across development, deployment, and data environments, Crystal Reports

®

is an intuitive reporting toolkit that helps address the challenges associated with presenting

dynamic data in applications. It provides developers with a faster way to access data, trans-

form it into dynamic information, and integrate it into web and Windows applications. With

minimal coding, you can provide end users with a variety of flexible interactivity options

including report viewing, printing, exporting, drill-down, and modification. 

With Crystal Reports, you can design reports to encapsulate data access and formatting rela-

tionships separately from your application’s core business logic. You can easily modify or

add reports to your application without impacting core business logic or having to recompile

and regression test your application. This helps reduce presentation-layer maintenance

requirements that result from ever-changing end-user specifications.

Easily access and format data into dynamic information

Tightly integrate reporting functionality into web and Windows applications
