Some integration questions
We have are the developers of a large ERP type system written in .Net. Am interested in providing end users with a flexible and easy to use report writer, so that's why I'm here. Our system uses a proprietary .exe client, but we do host web pages inside the app, so I figure that would be how we deliver it to end users.
Some questions:
1. Is fastreports.net the right product in this lineup for me to consider?
2. Say a user wants to do an employee report. In my SQL Server DB, in real time, I build a table just for this user. Can I now push a report out to him, with the proper db connection already made, and he cannot even see the db connection info?
3. Or possibly I should consider another method. Push an XML "db" down to his client? But again, can I have preloaded the report somehow so that the end users don't have to make DB connections?
Any tips you all have regarding integrating fastreports as I described will be appreciated!
