OasisPro · CrystalWorks · Crystal Reports IFS Cloud · SAP Approved
The only solution of its kind.
Approved by SAP itself.
Crystal Reports IFS Cloud integration is gone in 26R1. Thousands of SAP partners exist worldwide. Not one has built what OasisPro has built. CrystalWorks is the only SAP-approved tool that preserves your Crystal Reports natively in IFS Cloud after 26R1. Zero rebuild. Zero risk. Zero disruption. Your RPT files run exactly as they always have.
Crystal Reports IFS Cloud integration disappears in 26R1. That is not a rumour and not something IFS will reverse again. The temporary reinstatements in 25R2 and 26R1 were the last ones.
Every partner in the market will tell you to migrate your reports to IFS Report Studio. That means rebuilding every single report by hand, retraining your team, and betting your operational reporting on a rushed project with a hard deadline. CrystalWorks is a different answer entirely: keep your Crystal Reports exactly as they are, running natively inside IFS Cloud, with nothing changing for your users and nothing changing in your reports.
No competitor. No alternative. No imitation. CrystalWorks is enterprise-grade, SAP-verified, and production-ready. If you run Crystal Reports in IFS Cloud, this is the only solution that keeps them running.
Your Crystal Reports. Running natively. Nothing changes.
CrystalWorks bridges your existing RPT files to IFS Cloud after 26R1 removes the native integration. Your users open IFS Cloud, run the report, view or download the PDF, exactly as they always have. Nothing changes for them. Nothing changes in your reports. CrystalWorks is invisible. The result is not.
Thousands of SAP partners exist worldwide.
Not one has built what OasisPro has built.
CrystalWorks is the only SAP-approved solution for Crystal Reports IFS Cloud compatibility after 26R1. OasisPro is the only SAP partner in the world providing it. There is no competitor to compare. There is no alternative to evaluate. There is no imitation to be wary of. If you want to keep your Crystal Reports running natively in IFS Cloud, CrystalWorks is the single path.
26R1 is the end of Crystal Reports IFS Cloud. Not the beginning of another extension.
Crystal Reports IFS Cloud integration has been phased out deliberately across several versions. Each time the IFS community pushed back, there was a temporary reinstatement. That pattern is over. IFS community discussions confirm it: 26R1 is the complete and permanent removal with no support beyond it. Businesses waiting for another reprieve are building their upgrade plans on something that is not coming.
If you are on IFS Cloud 26R1, one more upgrade removes Crystal Reports permanently.
There are no further temporary reinstatements. No extensions have been announced. The moment your environment upgrades past 26R1, every RPT file stops running inside IFS Cloud. CrystalWorks must be in place before that upgrade happens. Not during. Not after. Before.
Every version. Every decision. The full Crystal Reports IFS Cloud removal timeline.
The removal of Crystal Reports IFS Cloud integration has been deliberate and sequential. Here is every version and what it meant, so there is no ambiguity about where 26R1 sits in that sequence.
| IFS Cloud Version | What happened | Status |
|---|---|---|
| 24R2 | Crystal Reports officially deprecated. Fully functional for existing users but no longer the strategic direction. | Deprecated |
| 25R1 | No longer sold to new customers. Existing users kept access within a 24-month transition window. | Limited |
| 25R2 | Crystal Reports reinstated temporarily via Service Update. The community had pushed back. IFS gave more time. | Temporary return |
| 26R1 | Crystal Reports available for customers upgrading from 25R1 only. The last window. No reinstated version follows. | Last call |
| Post 26R1 | Crystal Reports completely and permanently removed. Every RPT file stops running inside IFS Cloud. No exceptions. | Gone |
Why migrating to IFS Report Studio is the wrong answer for most businesses right now
IFS will tell you the answer is Report Studio. Every other partner in the market will offer to help you migrate. Here is what that actually involves: auditing every Crystal Report you have, then prioritising by business impact. Then learning a tool that IFS community members have described as clunky and difficult.
Then rebuilding every single report from scratch. No automated conversion path exists. Every report is a manual rebuild. Then retraining every person who runs those reports. And doing all of it before your 26R1 upgrade window closes.
For businesses with a handful of simple reports, that is manageable. For businesses with large Crystal Reports libraries covering finance, operations, logistics, MRO, and compliance, it is an enormous project running against a hard deadline with no flexibility left in it.
CrystalWorks does not ask you to rebuild a thing. Your reports run natively. Exactly as they are. Exactly as they always have. The migration project simply does not happen.
What breaks the moment Crystal Reports is removed from IFS Cloud
This is not a theoretical risk. When Crystal Reports IFS Cloud integration is gone, the impact hits every department that depends on operational documents generated from RPT files.
Orders and despatch
Sales orders, delivery notes, picking lists, and despatch documents built in Crystal Reports stop generating. Logistics and operations grind to a halt from day one of the upgrade.
Finance and invoicing
Purchase orders, invoices, remittance advices, and financial reports stop producing. Finance cannot send documents to suppliers or customers. Revenue processes stall.
Maintenance and MRO
Work orders, inspection reports, maintenance schedules, and compliance documents in Crystal format stop generating. MRO operations and field service teams lose the documentation they depend on every shift.
Regulatory and management reports
For businesses in regulated industries, losing Crystal Reports is not just an inconvenience. It is a compliance exposure if those documents are required by law, by contract, or by audit. That risk lands the day of the upgrade.
Enterprise-grade. SAP-verified. Production-ready. What CrystalWorks actually delivers.
CrystalWorks is not a workaround or a temporary patch. It is an enterprise-grade, SAP-verified, production-ready solution that has been tested across more than 10 live IFS Cloud environments and service updates before any customer goes live on it.
RPT files run natively
Your existing RPT files connect to CrystalWorks and run exactly as they always have. No conversion. No editing. No migration. The same file that runs today runs in IFS Cloud after 26R1.
Identical print and PDF output
Users navigate to the report inside IFS Cloud, run it, and view or download the PDF. The output is identical to what they have always received. CrystalWorks is invisible to the person running the report.
SAP approved and SAP verified
The only solution in the market that carries SAP approval for the Crystal Reports IFS Cloud deprecation. OasisPro is the only SAP partner providing it. Enterprise-grade credibility with nowhere to compromise.
On-premise deployment

Frequently asked questions about Crystal Reports IFS Cloud and CrystalWorks
When does IFS Cloud remove Crystal Reports?
Crystal Reports is permanently and completely removed from IFS Cloud in version 26R1. It was temporarily reinstated in 25R2 and 26R1 in response to community pressure, but those reinstatements are the last ones. There are no further extensions currently confirmed. Once your environment upgrades past 26R1, Crystal Reports integration is gone for good.
Is CrystalWorks genuinely the only SAP-approved solution?
Yes. CrystalWorks is the only solution approved by SAP to address the Crystal Reports IFS Cloud deprecation in 26R1. OasisPro is the only SAP partner worldwide currently providing it. There is no competitor, no alternative product with equivalent SAP approval, and no imitation in the market. If someone tells you otherwise, ask them for their SAP approval documentation.
Do my RPT files need to change to work with CrystalWorks?
No. Your RPT files run natively through CrystalWorks without a single change. Nothing is converted, edited, or migrated. The same file that runs in your IFS environment today runs through CrystalWorks after 26R1, producing the same print and PDF output your users are used to.
What makes CrystalWorks different from migrating to IFS Report Studio?
Report Studio requires rebuilding every Crystal Report from scratch by hand, with no automated conversion path, followed by retraining everyone who uses those reports. CrystalWorks requires none of that. Your reports run natively, your users work exactly as before, and the migration project simply does not happen. CrystalWorks does not prevent a future migration if you choose to do one. It removes the pressure of doing it under a hard deadline.
Is CrystalWorks available on-premise and hosted?
Yes. CrystalWorks is available as an on-premise deployment within your own infrastructure, or as a fully hosted and managed solution provided by OasisPro. OasisPro will recommend the right model based on your IFS Cloud environment, your data security requirements, and your infrastructure preferences.
How quickly can CrystalWorks be deployed?
CrystalWorks can be deployed in days. OasisPro handles the full deployment and validation process. If your 26R1 upgrade is approaching and you need CrystalWorks in place quickly, contact OasisPro now. There is still time, but the window is not open indefinitely.
