Documenting Crystal Reports for technical users and end-users
Subject:Documenting Crystal Reports for technical users and end-users From:Damian Calitz <damian -dot- calitz -at- clover -dot- co -dot- za> To:"'Techwr-l'" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Thu, 17 May 2007 12:56:22 +0300
Does anybody on the list know how to go about documenting a Crystal
Report?
It will have to be technical, in that it shows how the report queries the
databases (for the developers).
The document also would have to document the report and it`s function (for
end-users).
Would it be acceptable to put them into one document, with the report
breakdown (the technical breakdown) in one section and the end-user
instruction in another?
I am wanting to avoid creating two documents, as the documentation will be
filed in one place for all to view/use.
