What version of Crystal Reports for Accpac 5.6?

[johnhugh]

Could someone please advise what version and edition of Crystal I need to modify / create reports in Accpac 5.6 / 6.0.

Do I need CR XI R2? Any special developer or enterprise editon needed?

 

[Jay Converse]

Minimum XI, but 2008 is OK.

Thanks tuba.
I presume no enterprise or developer edition is needed, just the basic stuff.

 

[Jay Converse]

Correct.

Developer just gives you the license to distribute the print engine in case you're including the ability to print Crystal reports with your application.

Is XI and 2008 the same? Wouldn't think so but this website refers me to 2008 when I click on the buy link for Crystal XI

They are not the same, you can use 2008 without any side effects.
I think XI is no longer officially for sale, but if you really want to get a copy then you can from Sage, they sell an OEM version.
