    MSCRM uses Microsoft reports for its reporting.
    You can export such reports to pdf, it’s a bit of a nuisance for the user though, unless you do some work.

    But the “standard” Microsoft reports approach would be the thing I would use by preference.
    If those reports are not the right format for you then I would consider whether formatting a report to look exactly like the screen really adds much value.
    You can spend a lot of time on formatting reports and users often don’t really care.
    Sub grids are rather a complication because you (obviously) can’t click a button to open up a new tab on a report and you can only fit so much.
    I would caution against trying to put too much in a single report.
