With the launch of Sage 50
Accounting 2015-U.S. Edition, Sage will no longer support SAP Crystal Reports
or include a license for its use within Sage 50. Customers who have a license
for Crystal Reports from a previous version of Sage can continue to run Crystal
Reports externally against a Sage 50 Accounting 2015 company. Sage deems the change necessary, as customer
adoptions of Crystal Reports have decreased, especially since the addition of
Sage 50 Intelligence Reporting. Customers and partners who prefer to use SAP
Crystal Reports may continue to do so, with Sage 50 Accounting 2015 and all
other new releases, by using a Crystal Reports license that included with a
previous version of Sage 50 or by purchasing a standalone license form SAP. The
only change from Sage is that Sage 50 Accounting 2015 will no longer include a
SAP Crystal Reports license with product purchase. Sage outlines the changes
inside the software below:
- SAP Crystal Reports
viewer is no longer included in the installation.
- SAP Crystal Reports is
no longer listed in the Reports & Forms menu, Select a Report window,
customized shorts cuts, or Select a Category for Find a Report.
- The User Security
Screen, Data Access/SAP Crystal Reports tab has changed:
- Removed SAP Crystal
Reports access from inside Sage 50.
- Kept Sage 50 Data Functions so that customers with existing reports can continue to use them.
