Reporting, Part 9: LRS-What’s in a name?

Here’s an interesting question I received recently from a reader:
“I've been reading back thru some of the LawsonGuru Letter issues; specifically the reporting series. What's the difference between Lawson Enterprise Reporting, Lawson Reporting Services, and Lawson Reporting Suite? Is it that Enterprise Reporting specifically uses Crystal Enterprise (CE)?
