End user report inheritance?

rbuser

Hi all,

Have you ever thought about end user report inheritance?
I mean a centralized way for a user to modify common part of his/her
reports.
Suppose that a user has an hundred of reports which all show some
information like address, company name and logo and so on.
But it can be also a company "look and feel" or layout.
If one of this information/layout changes she/he has to go on each
report to fix it.
In a OO language this would be solved with a properly designed class
hierarchy (and then modifying an ancestor class and rebuild the
application), but what about end-user reports?
It should be something like a common enterprise(or maybe user?)-level
template, don't you think so?

Thanks in advance
Bye
Nicola

Hi Nicola,

Template inheritance is something we have been thinking about for some time
now. Thanks for the suggestion.

But it is only an idea, or do you have some (release) plan?
