New Management Reporter 2012 update available
Management Reporter 2012 Rollup 2 has been posted for download. A rollup release contains both new features as well as service pack bug fixes. Localized versions of this release also are available.
The two primary changes for this release include:
- Support for Microsoft SQL Server 2012 – Management Reporter 2012 has been fully tested on the latest version of SQL Server
- Updates to currency translation for Dynamics GP users – Management Reporter 2012 will return individual exchange rates for each column of data for General Ledger accounts, using the Current or Spot rate translation type in Dynamics GP. This allows for comparative balance sheet reporting.
With this release, we’ve continued to make significant impacts on product quality and performance, including resolving more than 70 bugs.
Please also note that this is the final release for the Dynamics AX 2012 INTFx data provider. Dynamics AX 2012 customers should make plans to transition to the Data Mart provider; you will see improved performance and stability with this Dynamics AX 2012 option.
We expect to keep up a regular release cadence with multiple releases during the year. These updates will be a combination of new features and issue resolution to provide you with ongoing value with your Management Reporter investment.

Hello Char, I am confused about the differences in MR2012 in comparison to MR 2.1. I just tried to update to MR2012 from 2.1 and I had to quit and restore my DB. One of my problems may be that the client's server is a 2003 Server. I tried following the instructions in the installation document for Win2003 servers but I really got lost in it and it did not work. I was able to create a database using the manual deployement method but could not figure out how to use that new database on the server. What am I missing? Thanks, Sheila Jefferson-RossAnonymous

Thanks Char - Any idea why the min reqs moved from SQL2005.sp2 to SQL2005.sp4? It appears a new release (2.1.1030.2) was publised on 9/27/2012 that requires SQL2005.sp4 but the info I gave my client 2-wks ago shows SQL2005.sp2. Just trying to keep up. Thanks.Anonymous
