Can I run multiple instances of Sage 100 Crystal Reports?
Only one version of Crystal Reports may be active on a machine at one time. For example, if you install Workstation Setup for Sage 100 2018 (which comes with the runtime engine for Crystal Reports 2016) on a workstation that already has Workstation Setup for Sage 100 2017 (which comes with the runtime engine for Crystal Reports 2011) installed, you will encounter an error when attempting to print from within Sage 100 2017.
Are all versions of Crystal Reports compatible with all versions of Sage 100?
Avoid using incompatible versions of Crystal Reports to create or modify reports or forms for Sage 100. For example, do not use Crystal Reports 10 to create or modify reports for Sage 100 versions 2013 and higher, and do not use Crystal Reports 2011 to create or modify reports for Sage 100 2018 and higher!
