Hi!
Maybe someone has posted something about this but I haven't found anything on the subject.
“NAV 2013R2 RDLC Reporting Testing – Visual Studio 2012 is not required but suggested for complex reports, SQL Server Report Builder 3.0 is now supported (with limitations!), you “can not use” Visual Studio 2012 Express Releases with integrated shell 2012.”

When 2009 came we had to manage different builds and many decided to have both the production and development environment at the customer site in order to skip maintaining all the different builds in-house. This is practical since many customers run different builds and in some scenarios you can't mix objects and clients to a lower build.
This is a minor hazzle but in combination with the new reporting were you need Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 Professional, Premium, or Ultimate to fully design the reports it suddenly becomes a bigger hazzle.
This leaves us to following options, maintain all the different customer builds in-house or install Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 Professional, Premium, or Ultimate at customer site (which is not really an options because of licensing).
What are your thoughts on this?
