The Distribution Challenge

Different Customers. Different Reporting Rules.

One customer wants a PDF by email. Another needs a spreadsheet in a shared folder. As the list grows, those small differences can take up more of your day.

Each Customer Has Their Own Data

The right invoice or statement must reach the right customer.

Delivery Instructions Change

A new contact or file format means another recurring detail to remember.

Manual Handling Adds Up

Saving, renaming and sending individual files turns one report run into many small jobs.

Why Choose CRD

More Than a Personalized Email List

With CRD, customer records can drive the file type, destination and message as well as the report values.

SAP Crystal Server

A recipient-source report and personalization mappings determine the content each recipient receives.

Your Distribution Questions, Answered

Answers to common questions before you try CRD.

How do bursting and data-driven schedules differ?

Bursting separates groups in an existing report. Dynamic Schedules repeat a report for key parameter values. Data-Driven Schedules read the report and delivery instructions from database records. All three are included at no additional cost.

Can customers receive different file formats?

Yes. A Data-Driven Schedule can read each customer’s supported format and destination from their record, alongside report parameters and message values. It is included in your CRD licence.

Can filenames and messages change for each customer?

Yes. CRD Inserts use dates, fixed text and database values in filenames, subjects and messages.

Can one customer receive several files together?

Yes. Data-Driven output can be grouped by email address. That grouped delivery uses attachments or merged files rather than embedded reports, and is included at no additional feature cost.

How does CRD select the right customer data?

Your report parameters and selection logic determine the contents. An email address alone does not filter or authorize the data. Use your existing customer reporting rules when setting up the schedule.

Is Excel Group Bursting the same thing?

Excel Group Bursting puts groups on separate worksheets within one workbook. Recipient bursting creates separate report outputs. Both are included in the CRD licence.
