Reports Not Working in PCI-Compliant Environments

The application’s reports would not work in environments where older security protocols TLS 1.0 and 1.1 had been disabled. This update includes the installation of a new version of Crystal Reports and a driver that allows the reports to work in these environments.

After the update, the application will prompt for the installation of 2 new software packages. These must be installed on every client PC for the reports to work in any environment. Depending on the security of your network, this may require Administrator privileges on your computers.
