Crystal Reporting
Today, most organizations face a similar challenge: The information you need exists – but it's stored in
disparate, inaccessible sources, in a format that's not usable. Reporting serves as a foundation for a
broader BI strategy, helping you provide the most requested information – reliably, securely, and in the
required format.
Crystal Reports – Connect to virtually any data source, design and format interactive reports, and share
them internally and externally. Securely deliver and explore your reports via SAP BusinessObjects
Enterprise, Crystal Reports Viewer, and Microsoft Office documents.
We have experienced Crystal Reports consultants who will help your company build professional looking,
powerful reports that can help you run your business more efficiently and provide the Crystal Reports help
that you may need. Crystal Reports is a powerful tool that even allows graphing within the reports
themselves.
Crystal Reports Consulting - ERP Reporting
Enterprise information systems are designed to gather information from across your business. However
they are notoriously poor at then filtering out the “noise” and providing you with the exact information you
need. Your business is unique and your information needs are thus unique. Custom Crystal Reports
development is a fast way to deliver information to your desk to be analyzed. Good information leads to
better decision-making, which leads to efficiency and profitability.
Crystal Reports - Application Experience : We have experience developing Crystal Reports from most
leading ERP and accounting applications such as Oracle EBS, Microsoft Navision, Sage and so on
Crystal Reports - Database Experience : We have experience developing Crystal Reports from the
following databases: Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, Informix , MySQL , Microsoft Access, FoxPro etc
How does a typical Crystal Reports development project work?
Step 1: The process begins with a discussion of your specific report needs. During that discussion our
Crystal programmers will gather your Crystal Reports requirements, technical information about your data
sources, details on how these reports are going to be delivered to end-users, and the best method to
obtain access to your data sources. (VPN, terminal services, sample database, etc)
Step 2 : The output of this discussion is an estimate of the lead time & cost required to complete your
reports.
Step 3 : Once we have your approval, your report will be assigned to our development team. At the end
of development, our Crystal consultants will send you the Crystal Reports RPT file. We then ask you to
verify the validity of the data returned in the Crystal Report by running it against your production data.
