Terry,
if your clients only need to find data and are not concerned with how the results are presented they can use queries rather than reports. Aware IM offers several features that let users run dynamic queries, i.e. queries that they define at run time, rather than at the configuration time. These features include the dynamic query builder and also the form-based search where users specify search criteria in object forms. The search results can be easily printed out or exported into a file.
If, however, your clients need to build dynamic reports that have to be presented in a particular way, at the moment they can only do it in the Configuration Tool (which implies creating and publishing a new business space version).
We do plan to add the ability to create documents and reports dynamically without having to change the configuration. This new feature is in our development plan for this year.
