Hello -

I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions/recommendations for a flexible
Django report generator.  Basically, I'd like to give user's the ability to
query a given model based on user-defined filters.  For example, for an
application that tracks information about a company's employees, often a
manager will want to run a report saying "show me all the employees in the
accounting department who have been employeed for X or more years," or
something to that effect.  Clearly, these kind of reports are trivial for me
to hard code using Django's ORM, but a much more ideal solution would be to
provide users with a (dare I say it) MS Access-like query builder, that
would allow them to choose the columns they want, define basic filters, and
a sorting order, and then review the results in a tabular format.

I've looked around and haven't quite found anything that meets my needs, so
I'd appreciate any suggestions anyone might have.  If nothing exists, I'll
probably try to write something myself, and make it my contribution to the
OSS community if its any good, but obviously I'd rather not reinvent the
wheel.

Thanks in advance!
