Reporting, Part 13: Introducing Crystal Subreports

One of Crystal Reports’ more powerful features is the ability to include subreports. Put simply, a subreport is a report within a report. With subreports, unrelated (or related) reports can be combined into a single report. You can coordinate data that could not otherwise be linked, or you can present different views of the same data in a single report.   Read More..

        • bernfc10 Hi Dona, I applied a patch that modified PRPAYWS which has custom code. I put the code in but I don't know how to find out which programs use this library. Is there a screen/tool/doc I can use to find out?

            Time To Rename LawsonGuru ?

            With Lawson S3 and M3 customers adopting integrated Infor products, is it time to expand and rename the LawsonGuru Letter and LawsonGuru.com? I thought it would be fun to ask the community for advice. Here are some ideas: Filed under: Infor, Infor Acquisition

            Inforum 2013

            I just returned from Orlando, having attended Inforum 2013. Last year’s Inforum, which quickly followed the acquisition of Lawson by Infor, was really just a combination of Lawson’s annual conference (CUE) with Infor’s name and logo slapped on for good measure. This year was quite a different story. Starting with the fact that I was actually […]

            Coming Soon to a (Lawson) Support Site Near You!

            Lawson morphs into Infor, continued.  You might have missed this notification, and I haven’t heard much noise regarding it. But I will share my insight. As a practical matter, this simply means that you will soon be using some different tools when you visit the MyLawson.com support site. But I also see a couple of […]

            Infor10 Lawson S3

            I’ve told you before that Lawson’s acquisition by Infor would be interesting. Our first taste of this new combination is Infor10 Lawson S3 (quite a mouthful, isn’t it?). I’ve been attending various product briefings and user groups, perusing the documentation, participating in a lead adopter project, and receiving my usual eyewitness reports and unsubstantiated rumors.  […]

            Inforum 2012

            Following the acquisition by Infor, Lawson’s annual conference (CUE) has morphed into Inforum, which was held this past week in Denver. I didn’t attend, but I watched the video feeds of keynotes, read the executive/analyst briefings, and of course received my usual eyewitness reports and unsubstantiated rumors. In addition, I’ve included some article links at […]
