Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2016: Designing reports

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Oleksandr Serdiuk 10

Hello friends,

I am working at Microsoft Dynamics NAV end user company and we are upgrading from NAV 2009 R2 Classic Client to NAV 2016. We have a license that allows us developing all types of objects, including reports. For designing RDLC reports we need to have Visual Studio but the problem is that we don't have it and as far as I know we are not going to buy it.

Does it mean that in NAV 2016 we will lose possibility to design reports unless we buy Visual Studio?

Thank you very much in advance for your assistance.

Best regards,

Oleksandr Serdiuk
