  • Artikkeli

 

Applies To: Dynamics 365 (on-premises), Dynamics CRM 2016

Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2016 Report Authoring Extension is required to create and customize fetch-based reports by using SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence, an authoring environment for Microsoft Visual Studio. More information: Microsoft Dynamics 365 Reporting Extensions requirements

If not already installed, the following components are installed during Report Authoring Extension Setup:

  • .NET Framework

  • Microsoft Application Error Reporting Tool

  • Windows Live ID Sign-in Assistant 6.5

Warning

Microsoft Dynamics 365 users who use the Report Viewer control included with Microsoft Visual Studio can view information from the reports that they have access to. By using this control, the user can view additional report and session data that is not displayed when running the report in Microsoft Dynamics 365. To reduce the risk of exposing confidential data, we recommend that you configure the Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services URL where the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Reporting Extensions is installed to allow only Transport Layer Security (TLS) or Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), also known as Secure HTTP, connections. More information: MSDN: Configure SSL Connections on a Native Mode Report Server.

Important

If your organization uses Microsoft Office 365, the computer on which the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2016 Report Authoring Extension is installed must have the Microsoft Online Services Sign-in Assistant installed on it. If Microsoft Online Services Sign-in Assistant is already installed, check the registry key SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSOIdentityCRL and make sure that the TargetDir registry key in MSOIdentityCRL contains msoidcli.dll.

Install the plug-in

Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2016 Report Authoring Extension is a plug-in that obtains the metadata and data from Microsoft Dynamics 365. This metadata is required to design and preview Fetch-based reports in SQL Server Data Tools. You can use Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2016 Report Authoring Extension with either Microsoft Dynamics 365 or Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2016.
