Hi ,


Our reporting projects is getting maturing. So for we have multiple version of application based on customer preference. Some choose migrate to newer version and some body pays less and stays in older version.

In this case how we can maintain reports with base version. Problem is customer with higher version expect the change in the report as well.

Straight solution is to have same version release in report as well and run it simultaneously.

Is there any optimal way of doing this with out running multiple versions and maintaining multiple code base ?

Please suggest.

Regards,
Prakash

It depends on functionality difference between the versions. If you are able to handle those within same fex by creating dynamic run time changes. If there are too many changes, then would prefer to add additional features using INCLUDE and still maintain single base code with common functionalities.

Provide us the functional difference between 2 version for better solution.

Hello,

I am not sure I understand your question. Let me summarize:

You have two versions of a report. You would like some of your customers to run the older version and others to run the newer version, and you are wondering if you can do this without having multiple copies of the same report. Is that correct?

Like Ram Prasad E said, this depends on what the differences are between the two reports. Can you outline what has changed in the newer version?

Thanks,
