This post is part of a series of posts on implementing Jet Reports and is part of the Jet Professional sub-series.
Over the last couple of posts, I’ve been taking a look at Jet Express, which is the lowest tier of Jet Reports. The next tier, is Jet Professional, formerly known as Jet Essentials, which is a much more flexible and capable reporting tool.
Before installing Jet Professional, there are some prerequisites for both the server and client components:
- Database Connection
- Microsoft Dynamics GP version 9 or later
- Microsoft SQL Server 2005 or later**
- OLE or ODBC compliant database
- Excel Addin
-
Prerequisites
- Microsoft .Net Framework 4.5, including ‘ADOMD.NET for SQL Server 2005’ (which can be downloaded from Microsoft)
-
Hardware (minimum)

- RAM: 2GB
- Disk space: 2GB

Operating System
- Microsoft Windows Server 2016
- Microsoft Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2
- Microsoft Windows Server 2008 SP2

* Jet Reports recommends that only one installation of MS Office be present. Jet Reports cannot support installations where multiple copies of MS Office are installed.
