Notes:
• THE SOFTWARE REQUIRES A VERSION SPECIFIC LICENSE KEYCODE

• Trial and production installations use the same software. Replace the trial keycode for a production keycode to use the software for your ongoing licensed use.

• It is best practice to use the same version and software build of SAP Crystal Reports as SAP Crystal Server - especially when installed to the same server.

• To install Part 1 and Part 2, please do the following: download both parts to the same folder on the server’s drive where you want to install SAP Crystal Server 2020 or SAP Crystal Server 2025, then run the .exe (right-mouse click to ‘Run as Administrator’) and the installation programm will find the 2nd file and take care of everything.

• Customers with a current maintenance contract can download updates through the SAP Service Marketplace (login required): https://support.sap.com

• Client tools, SAP Crystal Reports for Enterprise, SharePoint Integration Option and other software are available from the SAP Service Marketplace (login required): https://support.sap.com

• The download links above are for Windows Server installations.

Distribute SAP Crystal Reports 2020 services to a Windows server

As announced in the SAP BusinessObjects addendum to Statement of Direction (Feb 2021), we plan to stop supporting SAP Crystal Reports 2020 services on Linux and Unix operating systems from version BI 4.3 SP2 on (Q4 2021), to remove dependency of the 3rd party component that simulates Windows API on Linux and Unix. SAP Crystal Reports 2020 reports are still fully supported, by distributing SAP Crystal Reports 2020 (CR 2020) services in SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence (BI) platform to a Windows server.
