Microsoft Dynamics 365 Reporting Extensions are data processing extensions that are installed on the Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services server. The Microsoft Dynamics 365 Reporting Extensions accept authentication information from Microsoft Dynamics 365 Server and pass it to the Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services server.

Microsoft Dynamics CRM Reporting Extensions Setup includes two data processing extensions: Fetch data processing extension and SQL data processing extension. By default, these extensions are installed during Microsoft Dynamics CRM Reporting Extensions Setup:

  • The Fetch data processing extension is required to create, run, and schedule Fetch-based reports.

  • The SQL data processing extension is required to create, run, and schedule the default (out-of-the-box) or SQL-based custom reports inMicrosoft Dynamics 365.

You don’t need Microsoft Dynamics 365 Reporting Extensions to run Microsoft Dynamics 365. However, if you want to create, use, or schedule reports in Microsoft Dynamics 365, you need to install Microsoft Dynamics 365 Reporting Extensions. Additionally, you need to install these extensions if you want to create or import an organization, like when you migrate from an earlier version of Microsoft Dynamics 365 using Deployment Manager.

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Reporting Extensions requirements

The Microsoft Dynamics 365 Reporting Extensions component has the following requirements:

  • You must complete Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server Setup before you run Microsoft Dynamics CRM Reporting Extensions Setup.

  • You can install and run Microsoft Dynamics 365 Reporting Extensions on only one instance of Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services on a computer.

  • The identity account running the instance of Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services where the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Reporting Extensions are running can’t be the local system or a virtual account. This is required for Microsoft Dynamics 365 reporting to work because the identity account must be added to the PrivReportingGroup Active Directory security group that is used by Microsoft Dynamics 365.

  • Separate deployments of Microsoft Dynamics 365 cannot share one Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services server. However, a single deployment of Microsoft Dynamics 365 that has multiple organizations can use the same Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services server.

  • You must run the Microsoft Dynamics CRM Reporting Extensions Setup on a computer that has a supported version of Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services installed. More information: SQL Server Reporting Services

  • For smaller data sets and fewer users, you can use a single-server deployment or a multi-server deployment. With larger data sets or more users, performance decreases quickly when running complex reports. Use a multi-server deployment with one computer that is running SQL Server for Microsoft Dynamics 365, and another server for Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services.

Report Authoring Extension requirements

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Report Authoring Extension is required to author Fetch-based reports used with Microsoft Dynamics 365 by using SQL Server Data Tools.

You must install the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Report Authoring Extension on a PC that has the following software.

  • Microsoft Visual Studio 2015, Microsoft Visual Studio 2013, Microsoft Visual Studio 2012, or Microsoft Visual Studio 2010.

    Note

    Compatibility with Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 and Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 requires the May 2017 update for Report Authoring Extension. Get it now from the Microsoft Download Center.

  • SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) installed with Microsoft Visual Studio.

  • If your organization uses Microsoft Office 365, make sure the computer with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Report Authoring Extension installed also has the Microsoft Online Services Sign-in Assistant installed on it. If Microsoft Online Services Sign-in Assistant is already installed, check the registry key SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSOIdentityCRL and make sure that the TargetDir registry key in MSOIdentityCRL contains msoidcli.dll.

Note

Multi-factor authentication with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Report Authoring Extension is supported with the May 2017 update for Report Authoring Extension or later versions.
