What is the diffrence between SSRS & RDLC Reporting & Classic Reports?

About Classic Client and Report in MS Dynamics NAV Version.

The designing of MS Dynamics NAV Reports in 2009 is called as Classic Client Report Designing where there were tools in NAV Dev Environment Only. Classic Client Report Designing is done within MS Dynamics NAV. Tools are provided in Dev Environment itself. About the background working in MS Dynamics I think it should have taken data direct from database like in SSRS Reporting.

About SSRS Reports SQL Server Reporting.

We can choose SSRS (SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) is a server-based report generating software system from Microsoft) reporting in NAV 2013 from the Tools Menu. The reporting is done via directly through SQL Server Based on our System. It is very fast reporting format as data is directly created from SQL SP and taken with tables and reporting services. There are few constraints like the tools provided in the SSRS reporting Dev Environment.

About RDLC Reports Report (Report Defination Language Client Side) 

From NAV 2013 we have only choice For RDLC or SSRS reports. The designer is with Visual Studio. We have options to select our report design tool within Tools menu. RDLC report uses and combines Report.RDLC  medata of Plain XML File with Dataset Defination.


I hope my R&D work have issued and clear some doubts. Although if there is any more suggestion I would like you to comment and tell more viewers of Blog to clear there doubts.
