Can I pull a custom report (Financial Statement) via the SDK for Sage 50 Accounting?

Posted By FormerMember

Currently I have a custom report that's used to create a CSV file to populate data into an in-house custom PHP financial dashboard. The way it's being populated now is a custom script that artificially runs the Sage 50 Accounting program to generate the CSV files. I'm looking into whether or not the SDK would be able to accomplish this. So far I've found in the COM API section of the SDK an OpenReport method (This method is used to display a specific report within the product. This method works only with standard/pre-defined reports.) But it says "standard/pre-defined reports", which begs the question is the report a "standard" report.

I'm very new to all of this so any help would be appreciated. Essentially the goal would be to pull the report for each month of the budget cycle and save as CSV - but do this so I don't need to artificially run the program.
