Requirements for third-party devices and software used with myAvatar

Device / Software Version Supported / Details

Cache

2010, 2016, 2017.2

The latest Cache 32-bit ODBC 2018 is supported.  64-bit is not supported when used with the Report Viewer within Avatar

ODBC Cache 2017 64-bit driver - Currently has the following restrictions:

  • All users are only running Avatar NX and aren not in a hybrid mode.
  • If users are not 100% on myAvatar NX, the machine that requires the ODBC driver to be installed does not need to be able to run reports from within myAvatar. For example, that machine is only making external ODBC requests to Caché.  This will allow standalone reporting for tools like Tableau or Crystal Report server.
