Overview
Jet Reports directly supports multi-tenant environments for Dynamics NAV.
Multi-Tenancy
Versions of Dynamics NAV 2013 and higher support multi-tenancy (where a single instance of the software runs on a server, serving multiple tenants).
If your organization has direct access to the SQL server on which the NAV Instance resides, you can use a faster SQL or Jet Remote Data Source connection to your NAV data.
If that is not possible, NAV's Web Services can be utilized to provide access to the NAV data.
Jet Administration Console
If your organization uses the Jet Service Tier to provide centralized data source settings to Jet Reports, you can use the Jet Administration Console to configure a connection to a multi-tenant NAV install.
