I need to implement a custom report engine where users are able to select different system model entities (tables) in a treeview or other ui compenent (list, dropdownbox etc.). Also, they may select and configure different filters according each entity field. They will work as input parameters for a custom report. The users ​may select different entities and merge their columns by providing the joined columns. The idea is provide a custom report engine similar to Google Fusion Tables or the report engine of Salesforce.
We are using Angular as main front-end framework and the kendo ui components (grid, buttons, etc).
There is any broader component or telerik tool to support such scenario or any available demo? The Product Reporting is suitable for dot net infrastructure and sql server databases. Our projects uses Rails and postgres, thus, at priori, we are not interested on this reporting product.

Presently we don't offer such a product which allows you to generate server platform agnostic reports on-the-fly. The only solution right now is our Reporting along with Report Server, which require .NET to operate. Or you can use your own custom implementation which makes use of our Kendo UI framework and widgets.
However, we are evaluating the possibility to introduce a new product in our portfolio, allowing you to build and configure dashboard-like UIs regardless of the server backend, using intuitive point-and-click UI for this purpose.
If you are interested in becoming a pilot user or help with defining the specification/spike of this new product, let us know and we can send you a Telerik contact via a private message with which you can talk on this subject.
