This is FRx 6.7 for GP. Sorry, I can’t help with AX. I just updated to GP 2010 SQL 2005 32 bit and updated FRx to Spk 11. When trying to open the previously generated Reports (.frd files) it takes forever to open. However, if I generate a report and then open the FRD it opens right up. Is there any way to solve this problem?

Can someone please tell me if this FRx 6.7 we are referring to is for Dynamics AX 2009?
Does the “FRx 6.7 for AX 2009″ have a SP 11 released yet, or is it just the SP 10 that I find in the Customer Source?

Thanks,
Raghu.

Leslie, that is correct. No problems on XP and extremely slow getting to login screen and running reports on Windows 7.

Neil, the SP 11 documentation does not show Windows XP as a cerified version, but shows Vista and 7. You had no problems on Windows XP but you did have problems on 7? Is that right?

I have a new machine with windows 2008 server 64 bit. This is a new server and I copied the sysdata folder from the old server (32bit) to the new one. I have Windows 7 and XP clients accessing the sysdata on the new server and the Windows 7 machines are extremely slow when opening FRX. I’m talking like 8-10 minutes to open frx. On the windows XP machines there is no problem. Has anyone else had this experience?

I have just been to the download links of FRx 6.7 Service Pack 11 (R11670) but how come it doesn’t specify Windows 7 as one of its supported Operating Systems?
(it still said Supported Operating Systems: Windows Server 2003; Windows Vista)

Never mind the last post … saw the answer above!

Jeff … thanks for the quick response! Not using AA, luckily!

Above it states that a 64-bit version of Windows is not supported for FRx. If you have FRx installed on a GP client that is 32-bit OS, but the SQL server is on a 64-bit OS server, is that supported? Is it the client or the database server that has to be 32-bit OS? We’d like to go 64-bit OS with SQL 2008, if possible.

Also … if you use VMWare, GP is not supported in that virtual environment, last I checked. For some reason AX is, but not GP.

Regards,
Denni

Denni,

If you’re using Analytical Accounting for GP, you must be on GP10 SP3 or later to use FRx 6.7 SP11. If you’re not using AA, you should be ok as-is.

Do you have to be on a specific GP service pack to apply the FRx SP11?
