Building a scalable reporting backend with List & Label Cross Platform

Reporting sounds simple until it has to generate invoices, statements, customer PDFs, and scheduled exports reliably across containers, tenants, and production workloads. At that point, reporting stops being a side feature and starts becoming backend infrastructure — which means the real challenge is no longer how to generate a PDF, but how to build a reporting service that is stateless, scalable, and easy to run in modern environments.

Stop outgrowing your .NET reporting: How to avoid “We have to rewrite this”

Most .NET teams don’t set out to build a reporting subsystem that needs rescuing. But “just generate a few PDFs” can quietly become a tangle of layout logic, export workarounds, and growing technical debt—until someone says, “We have to replace this.” Here’s how to spot that pattern early, and how to avoid backing your application into a reporting rewrite later.

Finally – a Glance in the Crystal Ball

An often required feature for "this cannot be done" type of problems is looking into the future. Things like "don't print this group if it doesn't contain record xy" or "print a reference to the page number of an item that's printed way later". Before List & Label 26, there was no simple solution to this and the magic had to be done in the application if possible at all. Starting with List & Label 26, we'll introduce a new feature that's aimed at solving exactly challenges like this.
