Report Upgrades from NAV to BC 21

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 100

Hi,

I am working on upgrading the reports from NAV 2013 to BC21. 

I have close to 142 reports. Out of 142, few are base reports which are customized as per business needs and others are newly created reports.

Depending on the level of customization, I am deciding whether to achieve the upgrade using the ReportExt or by creating a new report all together. 

If the changes are more of RDLC and less of CAL changes, which would be the right approach to take? Whether to accommodate the CAL changes in a ReportExt and upgrade only RDLC changes or Upgrade the entire report has a new report in BC21?

Thanks in advance.

    If you on OnPrem then we dont need to buy extra report objects pack

    If you are on Cloud then we can be up to date with Microsoft changes.

    Easy to maintain.

    Ok. Also, how to only upgrade the RDLC changes?

    Thanks for your knowledge sharing.
