Dynamics SL ROI

Ever wondered what ROI stands for in Dynamics SL?

Well have no fear, you are in the right place sir/ma'am!

ROI stands for - Report Operations Interpreter

What is it - it is the screen you see immediately before running any SL Crystal Report. The purpose of the screen is to filter or group the report the way you want it to show at run time.

The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required.

So you are installing Management Reporter Application and Process Service in the environment. Clean install. No reports or anything else exists. Then.... you get the above error! It looks like everything was installed though. :s

What next?
- Remove the Application and Process Service.
-Delete the Management Reporter database in SQL that was just made by the process.
-Go into Internet Explorer and turn off the Proxy Service.
-Re-run the install for the Application and Process Service.
-Voila!
