With this powerful program, you can:
  • Improve report reliability and maintenance
    Analyzer documents over 30 design and style settings.
  • Speed development and maintenance
    You can easily view dependencies between Crystal Report objects such as formulas, SQL expression fields, parameters and database fields--with the dependency viewer. Additionally, the powerful query feature lets you view dependency information across reporting projects.
  • Manage projects better
    Analyzer generates comprehensive documentation of your Crystal Reports, with over 100 presentation quality reports. Complexity metrics assist with test case planning and maintenance estimates.

Let's take a closer look at what Report Analyzer for Crystal Reports allows you to do:

Improve report performance

  • Automatically detect reports that do not take advantage of server side database processing.
  • Detect record selection formulas which use data type conversion functions.
  • Detect group fields which use formulas instead of SQL Expression fields.
  • Find report tables which use less than an optimal number of fields.
  • Discover special fields which cause an additional pass over the report data source.
  • Plus more

 Improve report reliability and reduce maintenance effort

  • Discover unused Formulas, Fields and Variables.
  • Identify group settings which cause blank pages and footers.
  • Identify missing standard Crystal documentation best practices (Report Title, Author, Description special fields).
  • Locate reports which may use the "Convert null field to default" setting inconsistently.
  • Keep versions of your documented reports for historical comparison.
  • Plus more

 Speed development and maintenance

  • View report designs in a design window similar to the one in the Crystal Reports designer program.
  • Select design objects and view/print settings, formula code (including conditional formatting formulas), dependencies with other design objects, and call stacks (for formulas only).
  • Use interactive diagrams (trees) of formula hierarchies, object dependencies and report design elements.
  • Query and print over 600 report settings across all documented reports. Perform instant impact assessment for database changes and formula changes across all documented reports.
  • Locate which reports use specific functions, parameters, and design settings.
  • Plus more
 
And then there's the powerful project management part....

Improve Project Management

  • Generate summary and detailed documentation.
  • Analyze report complexity metrics to assist with test plan development and maintenance planning.
  • Easy to use documentation explorer to browse and compare report design settings.
  • Print report design diagrams.
  • Print report data dictionaries.
  • Extensive formula printouts including call trees, object cross references, formatted listing, and conditional formulas.
  • All documentation can be exported in a variety of formats including PDF, HTML and Word.
  • Uses Crystal Reports to produce the documentation, enabling complete customization
  • Plus more!
