SAP Crystal Reports is ideal if your job responsibilities require you to obtain output from databases. In some cases, database programs have limited reporting tools, and/or users may not have access to those reporting tools.

In this course, you will start off building basic list and group reports that work with almost any database. You will also learn how to create more sophisticated reports like sub-reports, cross-tabs, drill-downs and parameter reports and will increase the speed and efficiency of your reports by using server side SQL queries.
