Custom viewer / toolbar

edited July 2016 in Server
Hello,

One think that we are hoping to achieve in our server implementation is,
for specific "Quote" reports, something more interactive for the end
user who clicks an emailed link to a server run report. Specifically, we
would like a way for the user to "accept" a quote, for a button or
linked clicked to communicate back with the Webtier so that their
response can be then saved in the database being reported on.

Ideally a button in the web viewer's toolbar (visible depending on
various criterian) would be the best UI for this, so is this doable? It
seems as if the server comes mainly with DCUs so not sure where to start.

Or would some can't of RAP passthru be a more viable solution, putting a
dynamically created hyperlink in the report to click?

TIA, Paul.
