Report development environment for Fetch-based and SQL-based custom reports

 

Applies To: Dynamics CRM 2013

 

You must set up the report development environment before you work with a custom report. There are two types of custom reports: Fetch-based and SQL-based. Fetch-based custom reports use FetchXML queries, which are proprietary to Microsoft Dynamics CRM, to retrieve data for reports. SQL-based custom reports use SQL queries and filtered views to retrieve report data.

This article describes the components that you must install to set up the report development environment for Fetch-based reports. It also lists other resources that are useful when you work with custom Fetch-based reports.

  • Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 or Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, or any product that uses the Visual Studio .NET integrated development environment such as Microsoft Visual Basic .NET.
