A few days ago, I had to modify reports in standard Dynamics Ax 2012 R3. Report successfully opened in Visual studio 2010, but when I tried to modify the report design, visual studio throw following error.
Unable to preview the report, install the Business Intelligence. Development Studio feature.
For this I had to install the Business Intelligence Development Studio from SQL Sever 2008 R2 setup.
After Installment this error resolved.
