Business Central Report Listing

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Dear All,

For BC, the system report can only be found on each module. As we are new to BC, it is very time consuming to go into every module and check.

Is there a way to know the list of all the reports?

for all other reporting needs that Bc doesn't have a build in report, how do you handle/using what solution to fulfil the reporting need?

Thank You

    Hi

    I'm not sure if I have understood your question properly but if you're looking for a list of all reports, you can go to 'Report Layout Selection'. It is intended for selecting layouts for different reports but you can run reports as well.

    Please let me know if this is what you were looking for.

    Hi,

    As per my knowledge there is not any list available out of the box where you can view all reports of the system. But even if there is it will be much difficult for you to understand which report is for what purpose and can cause confusion to you. There are hundreds of reports in Business Central.

    If you are new to Business Central then it good to go into every module and check what is there. It will help you understand system.

    For other reporting needs for which Business Central has not built in reports you can create reports.

    There are two parts of report in Business Central. One is dataset and other is Layout Design. Dataset is the data that is taken and from tables and/or is calculated using formulas in code. Dataset is designed in AL using VS code. Then comes Layout design. Two types of layouts are available inside Business Central. One is RDLC and other is Word Layout. Same dataset can be used to generate layouts in RDLC or Word.

    Additionally you can use Power BI for reporting purpose as well. Power BI reports can be embedded in Business Central as well as you can take data from Business Central and use in Power BI separately.
