    Do a quick search on Internet with the name Victoria Yudin... you should find her blog fairly quickly. She has published many articles and posted SQL views to use with SSRS or Excel refreshable reports.

    Yes you can.. no problem with SSRS, you can create a datasource that points to the GP server and there use views or stored procédures that you'd create on the server side to link multiple databases.

    Hi Lisa,

    David Musgrave has written an excellent article about how to integrate external data to Report Writer with VBA back in 2008... You may want to have a look at it :

    Hi Lisa,

    Sorry Lisa.In Report writer you cannot link an cross dictionary table.

    1. In dexterity you can use developer upgrade to bring the cross dictionary table to dynamics dictionary, then you can attach the table.

    Hi Lisa,

    If you are not able to link third party table into GP report writer then bring data using VBA. Create Calculated field--> add reports into VBA --> then calculated field(s)--> do some small vba coding to bring data from third party table and populate to your calculated field.
