Common questions about Jet Reports
Jet Reports integrates directly with Business Central and NAV through a secure, optimized connection that allows real-time access to your business data. The integration is established through a Jet Reports add-in for Excel and a server component that communicates with your Business Central or NAV database. This direct connection eliminates the need for data exports and ensures that your reports always contain the most current information. The integration works with both cloud and on-premises deployments of Business Central and NAV, and supports all recent versions of these systems. The connection is secure, respecting the user permissions defined in your ERP system, so users can only access the data they're authorized to see.

Jet Reports and Jet Analytics serve different reporting and analytics needs. Jet Reports is primarily a reporting solution that connects directly to your Business Central or NAV data, allowing you to create Excel-based reports with real-time data access. It's ideal for operational reporting, financial statements, and day-to-day business reporting needs. Jet Analytics, on the other hand, is a complete business intelligence solution that includes a pre-built data warehouse, cubes, and dashboards. It's designed for more advanced analytics, including historical trend analysis, multi-source data integration, and interactive visualizations. Jet Analytics builds on Jet Reports capabilities by adding a data warehouse layer that optimizes performance for complex analytics and supports combining data from multiple sources. Many businesses start with Jet Reports for their essential reporting needs and later add Jet Analytics as their analytics requirements become more sophisticated.
The implementation timeline for Jet Reports varies depending on your specific requirements, but it's generally much faster than traditional business intelligence solutions. A basic Jet Reports implementation can be completed in as little as 1-2 days, including installation, configuration, and basic training. If you require custom report development, the timeline will extend based on the number and complexity of the reports needed. A typical implementation with a moderate number of custom reports might take 1-2 weeks. Jet Analytics implementations are more extensive due to the data warehouse component and typically take 2-4 weeks. Our implementation approach is designed to deliver value quickly, with an initial set of reports available soon after installation, followed by progressive development of additional reports based on your priorities.
Yes, Jet Reports can access historical data stored in your Business Central or NAV system. The extent of historical data available depends on your system's data retention policies and the amount of historical data you maintain in your active database. For businesses that require extensive historical analysis or have limited historical data in their active ERP database, Jet Analytics provides a more comprehensive solution. Jet Analytics includes a data warehouse that can store historical data from multiple sources and time periods, enabling in-depth trend analysis and year-over-year comparisons. The data warehouse can be configured to retain historical data according to your specific requirements, even if that data has been archived from your active ERP system. This makes Jet Analytics particularly valuable for businesses that need to analyze trends and patterns over extended time periods.
