Using the items on the Reports → Custom Reports menu, you can generate additional reports customized for your specific needs. When you install the application, this menu item displays various sample reports. By default, reports are generated using Microsoft Report Viewer, which is included in the server part of ABBYY FlexiCapture. Custom reports can be created in a number of applications, including Microsoft Visual Studio and Microsoft Report Builder. Data for custom reports can be acquired using these applications, a SQL query, or a stored database procedure.
You can use Crystal Reports to generate standard and customized reports. For details, see this Knowledge Base article: How to create custom reports using Crystal Reports.
The source code of these samples can be found in the FlexiCapture\CustomReports subfolder of the root IIS folder (usually C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\FlexiCapture12\Monitoring\CustomReports). You must place your new reports in this subfolder to be able to access them from the Administration and Monitoring Console.
