I'm interested if you managed to solve your issue, as we have something similar.

    Hi Adriaan: we ended up creating a custom solution to satisfy our requirements; we call it 'Report Set Manager.'  Its two custom SQL tables, a dashboard for maintaining the report sets and content with them, and a few BR functions that populate the parameters in the report book (by pulling from the custom SQL tables).

    Maintenance of the Report Sets and the content within each set is end-user controlled.  The custom BR functions within report books is currently managed by our report writing team but, in theory, could likely also be transitioned to end users.

    Let me know if you want more details on it.
