Hi, One of our clients requires reports that are editable. There is lots of Information on the transaction documents which can not come from Navision as it keeps on changing. This requirement should not necessarily fit into Navision. Even if the output format is editable and can be printed that is fine. Has anybody come acroos such requirements? Regards, DD
Did you consider JetReports? This is one the the best external tool do do reporting from Navision tables to Excel.
From where can i get JetReports? Thanx
Hi DAv, Thanks for the reply. It is another utility you are talking of. We need the additional information on the Printouts of the Reports. We are not in a position to suggest to our clients to buy one more utility. Any other ideas? Regards, DD
http://www.jetreports.com/ This is really the best tool I know to to “editable reports”. If you want to edit reports (format, values, etc.), you definitely need another report designer. Another alternative: if you have a very limited number of reports to produce, you can also use automation and Export to Excel, but it will definitely require a lot of work, because you have to rebuild every report one by one. Did you consider saving reports as HTML and copying back to Word or Excel???
David Copy from HTML to Excel is a big pain!![:(] The best is Jet Reports or Automation Coding to Excel
Hi Dharmendra, Well if you do not want to use the jet repoorts or any other external tool, then I will suggest creating the tab delimited dataports for those reports. that way, they can open the exported files into excel and modify them if they want, later if they send back to you, you can import them into Navision.

Hi, please let us know what reports from navision should be editable and what information will be entered/changed by the users. Perhaps you can give us an example? br Josef Metz
