Migration of Crystal Reports to SSRS

The following Crystal reports used in Portal have been converted to SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) for compatibility with PaaS (Platform as a Service) in a cloud environment.

• Transcripts – Student & Enrollment based
• Student Schedules
• Registration Billing
• Subsidiary Statements
• Payment Receipts

Custom SSRS reports are not supported with Portal version 20.0.0.

Crystal Reports will continue to work same as on prior versions.

For details about the SSRS integration in Portal, see Installation Manager Help.

Support for Custom SSRS Reports

With version 20.0.1 and later, Portal supports custom SSRS reports.

When SSRS reports are enabled, custom reports can be used for all the reports in Portal. A prerequisite is that the custom reports are uploaded to the SSRS reports server under Custom > Portal folder. The custom report files must have the same names as the default report files.

When no custom reports are available, the default SSRS reports are used in Portal.
