Migrating from FRx to Management Reporter 2012

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 742

Good evening everyone,

Does anyone know if with the last CU released, migration from FRx to MR is working correctly? As far as I know, when MR 2012 was just released, this tool wasn't working properly.

Could anyone migrate from FRx to MR successfully?

Thank you in advanced!

Regards!

Valeria.

    Beat, it has been a while since I have done one of these conversions, but as long as your clean their old FRx reports as specified in the migration tool and then copy over the mdb with the layouts it should run through the migration tool just fine. I was never able to get FRx to run on a W2012 R2 server. The FRx files could reside on a W2012 R2 but FRx would not run.

    Hi Richard,

    I know this is old stuff, but I have a customer on GP 10 using FRx.. never installed MR yet on their system. Upgrading them to 2018R2...

    Did you had to do any intermediate CU setup of MR 2012 or did that go straight from FRx to CU16 ?

    FRx not being supported on recent Windows x64 platform, how did attacked this ? performed on the old Windows 2003 server ?

    Thanks in advance for your insights !

    I just did an FRx to MR 2012 CU 16 upgrade the other day with no problems. I have not had problems with that tool in years.
