Reports

Added a Custom Report Writer

The Custom Report Writer utilizes built-in PCR-360 Custom Logic, the Smarty HTML Templating Engine, and the Bootstrap v4.0 CSS Framework to render customized, distinctly formatted reports. The functionality allows for:

  • PDF downloads

  • Emailed reports

  • Reports saved with data

  • Batch processing

Reports can be easily accessed within the system via Bookmarks, linked directly on any form, or on most grids in the application.  They are also available to end-users in CustomerCenter.


Note: This update officially deprecates the Crystal Report functionality. It will only remain available if you are currently using Crystal Reports.
