Platned will outline how our Crystal to IFS Report Studio conversion service works, including the custom tool we have developed to automate much of the rebuild process. This approach reduces workload by up to 70% and helps ensure upgrade-ready layouts in IFS Cloud.

What you will learn:

• Key reporting changes in 24R2, 25R1 and 25R2
• How Platned converts Crystal Reports into IFS Report Studio layouts
• How our internally developed tool reduces manual effort
• Practical steps to prepare for the transition
