Welcome to the Majorsilence Reporting wiki. Hopefully this resource will help you to take advantage of all that this project (previously called My-FyiReporting) has to offer.

Introduction

Majorsilence Reporting is a Free Open Source reporting solution for SQL data (most databases), where reports are defined in XML text files to the open RDL standard (as used by Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services). It requires the MS .Net framework (version 4 or above) to run the supplied executables. A report designer allows you to generate reports and save them in .RDL format, and a report viewer can be called or embedded into your own application.

For a more technical introduction please see the main project page.
