If you create a separate lyx document for each "report", you
will be able to get all the stuff from one master document
with Insert->Include file (as many times as needed).
In that way, you may check each separate subdocument, and still be
able to build up the whole doc without editing anything.
This is easier with LyX than with plain LateX (unless you
use AucTex or similar editing environment).
As a by-product, Export as Latex from the master will create as
many latex files without the preambles, that you may play with
separately (this is not needed IMHO, tex2pdf e.g. works fine from the LyX
master document).
Hope this helps.
