Overview of this book

All of the data entered into a CRM means nothing if it is unable to report the important information to our managers and executives in such a way that they can easily and quickly get the results they need. A better reporting system would enable them to make the necessary improvements to the processes that any business needs in a dynamic business world.For users and developers wishing to take advantage of using the report capabilities of Dynamics CRM, this is the book for you. Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 Reporting is a practical and excellent reference guide that provides you with a number of different options you can use to create and empower the Reporting capabilities of Dynamics CRM. This will give you a good grounding in using the reports in your Dynamics CRM 2011 implementations. This book looks at all the different options we can use to create reports in Dynamics CRM 2011, starting with SQL Reporting Services and custom reports, created in either CRM Report Wizard, SQL Report Builder, or Visual Studio. It will also show other options we can use such as dashboards, charts, and different ways to optimize and automate reports.We will also learn how to build our own reports either using the different wizards for basic reports or using Visual Studio for more complex reports. We will explore the options mobile CRM users have who want to run and see reports on these mobile devices.

Chapter 4. SQL Server Report Builder

In this chapter, we are going to create reports using SQL Server Report Builder. This is a tool that comes with SQL Server Reporting Services, as we will see in this chapter, and is more powerful than the CRM Report Wizard we saw in the previous chapter. It will help us create better reports without using Visual Studio.

This is a tool designed for intermediate users, and it allows us to include images, drawing controls such as lines and squares, charts, geographic maps, and it allows us to change the text font styles.

In this chapter we are going to cover the following topics:

  • Report Builder versions

  • Report Builder limitations
