Enable Self-Service Report Design and Editing

Juillet 27, 2026
An end user report designer lets users create and edit report layouts without code, increasing flexibility and reducing reliance on developers.

An end user report designer is a visual tool that allows non-technical users to create, edit, and customize report layouts directly within an application, without needing to write code or rely on developers. Typically featuring an intuitive drag-and-drop interface, it enables users to arrange data, apply formatting, configure layouts, and define filters and expressions to meet changing business requirements. This allows organizations to deliver reporting changes more quickly, gives users greater control over their reporting needs, and enables development teams to focus on more complex application work.

Several React reporting components provide you with an end user report designer, such as:

  • DevExpress Reporting includes a browser-based End-User Report Designer for creating, editing, and previewing report layouts with charts, tables, expressions, and data binding.
  • ActiveReportsJS by MESCIUS provides a web-based report designer for creating and editing reports with visual layout editing, data sources, expressions, charts, and export support.
  • Stimulsoft Reports.JS offers an HTML5 report designer for creating and editing templates with drag-and-drop layout, expressions, data connections, and preview.
