I use Telerik Reporting with my ASP.net websites. Now that I am using Rollbase, can Telerik reporting be integrated with it or are there plans to integrate Telerik reporting with rollbase?
This is an idea that is on longer term roadmap -- still being evaluated. I assume you are asking about incorporating the HTML reports as 'pages' in Rollbase, or as a standalone 'report portal' from Telerik Reporting.
The challenge (or issue) from Rollbase perspective is that the report designer is Windows tool (or a Visual Studio plugin). There are also some runtime issues related to needing a .NET compatible server and then connectivity to Rollbase over ODBC, but those are secondary.
Do you have more thoughts on what you were looking for:
- was it Telerik Reporting as a separate portal?
- or Telerik Reporting embeded in Rollbase pages?
Hi Bill...Yes, incorporating it into Rollbase pages would be nice. However, if we can access our Rollbase data, then I suppose a separate portal would work as well. Really, what I like about Telerik Reporting is the comprehenisve tools it has and the amount of flexibility it has to make great looking reports. It might be easier to enhance rollbase reporting as an alternative.
We can access rollbase data through data direct, I wondering if we can already use Telerik reporting with this datadirect connection?
