IQA reporting layout is driven by global parameters that you control.
The Report view uses layout parameters stored in the iMIS SystemConfig table, so you can change parameters once (such as to assign corporate colors or A4 paper size) and have all IQA reports conform to your standards across the organization.
Requirements
This IQA-based reporting works with all of your queries, old and new. Everything you need for IQA reporting is distributed with iMIS. No additional licensing is needed for the ReportViewer control, which is a Microsoft redistributable component. Nor do you need to install Reporting Services on SQL Server, since the Report Viewer does all the needed processing.
Troubleshooting tip: If you see ReportViewer errors, you might have an old ReportViewer control. To get the newer version, search the web for Microsoft Report Viewer Redistributable 2005 SP1 (Full Installation), which is available for free download from several sites.
The optional applications are also free:
■ Adobe Acrobat Reader, for opening and printing PDFs (install on workstations)
■ SQL Server Business Intelligence Studio, for customizing RDL files externally, if needed
