We have SAP B1 2007A and Crystal report 2008 developer edition.

I read arround internet that soon SAP will be compatible with Crystal report, but my big question is if the data's will be available as object (ARInvoice - Orders - etc. etc) or by simple table !!!

If anyone can help me to understand more about it, will be gratifull.

Hi David,

I am talking aout the "new" crystal report compatibility, I read arround internet that the next version of SAP B1 that will be release at end of August the support of Crystal report will be inside the software already without any Add-on.

I never heard about that and it seem very unlikely that it will not be an add-on since SAP would only make such integration with a major release... Not a simple patch-level

There is a bit of information about this in the newly release SBO roadmap (online on the partner protal)...

SAP have told us that they will integrate in 3 steps:

- Step 1 is now and is simply that Crystal Reports become free and that they have made a small add-on that can launch crystal reports.. These reports however is made just like any other random system by looking directly into the SBO tables so no new compared to before SAP purchased Crystal

- Step 2 will be introduced with release 8.8 (2009) and will have a more technical integration... They do not indicate what "more technical" means but it could be objects for Crystal Report

- Step 3 is full integration in/after 2010, which indicate that all reporting can be done directly in Business One
