QUESTION POSED ON: 03 July 2007
To use a WAD is it mandatory to have the SAP portal running? What other applications have decent formatted reporting for top management?

To run the reports on a browser, you need some kind of WAD. Or you can purchase software like Cognos or Crystal Reports to nicely format and graphitize your reports.
