Ad Hoc Reporting in Microsoft Dynamics AX
Ad Hoc Reporting capabilities enable application users to create, view, and save reports that satisfy their individual information analysis requirements. Abstracted tools and services that do not require user knowledge of the underlying database schemas or experience in programming and advanced report authoring are required to enable this scenario. This scenario is also typically referred to as “self service” reporting. The primary goal for Ad Hoc Reporting is to enable application users to locate, select, filter, sort, group data, view, and format the results using predefined layout templates.

Model driven integration with SQL Server Report Builder is a new feature in Microsoft Dynamics AX that enables secure Ad Hoc Reporting.

SQL Server Report Builder is a new Ad Hoc Reporting framework and tool introduced in SQL Server Reporting Services 2005 to enable self service end-user reporting. The following webcast provides an overview of SQL Report Builder architecture and the scenarios that it enables. We recommend that you view this webcast if you are not aware of the capabilities and scenarios enabled by SQL Report Builder:
