We have a number of big projects that occupy our time, but we were able to slip-in one long-overdue feature.  When we designed the reporting engine in SplendidCRM to be based on Microsoft's Report Definition Language (RDL), we knew that we would one day be able to import RDL files created by the SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio.  That day has arrived.

I'm happy to report that we are testing a build that allows you to create invoices using a full-fledged report designer, and import the report files into SplendidCRM for execution.  SplendidCRM has a basic built-in report designer, but it is only useful to create tabular reports.  With the ability to import report files, you can create freeform reports, like the kind typically used to generate quotes or invoices.  These reports can even embed images so that your invoices would be nothing less than stunning.
