sql server reporting services:

I'm developing custom reports for various customers, based on OLAP cubes and
SQL Server 2000 databases. These usually look similar, but are not
identical. This means I can't have the same data source for all reports.

I usually have one solution for each customer. Then I usually add different
projects under each solution, depending on the complexity of the order. I
usually start out with 2 projects: Dev and Final. Dev contains all reports
with static queries. Final contains the reports with dynamic queries based
on parameters. If the customer also orders some of our standard reports,
they go in 2 new projects, Standard Dev and Standard Final, in the same
solution.
