Okay hello all I am new here so forgive me for any unintentional fopas I may commit with this posting.
I have a design question concerning creating custom ssrs reports within dynamics 365 online. I have searched the net but I am unable to get any concrete answers.
My question is, is it possible to create custom ssrs reports utilizing linq to crm? if so, what are the exact limitations, what are the strengths and is there another design pattern that would be stronger than using linq to create custom ssrs report queries. I am currently in the beginning stages of creating a new ssrs system for my company, and we are looking for a good way to create user friendly ssrs reports within dynamics 365 online.
I must note that I am looking for suggestions concerning Dynamics 365 online as are database will be hosted in the cloud. Again forgive me for any incorrectness in the format of my question I am new to this forum.
Short and correct answer - I'm sorry but you can't do that. Reports for Dynamics 365 allow only FetchXml datasources.
