Yes, you can do this. First have a look through the style guide. If covers much of what you'll want. It's at: <tcr <install>\products\tcr\style\tcr_style_guide.pdf
After that you can check out this link for customizing reports:
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/tivoli/library/t-tcr/ibm_tiv_tcr_customizing_report_designs.pdf?S_TACT=105AGX01&S_CMP=LP
And this one for creating report packages:
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/tivoli/library/t-tcr/ibm_tiv_tcr_designer_corner_reportpackages.pdf?S_TACT=105AGX01&S_CMP=LP
Lastly, tips and techniques:

Hi
Thank you for the answer, but the issue is that i've been looking to ibm_tiv_tcr_customizing_report_designs.pdf and it says that i have to import the report package to a report project but I don't know how to do it, it's not clear in this part...

It's similar to the style guide section 4.2.2 - importing style package
In this case use a product report package instead. Also don't forget to set the resources directory as in 4.2.4 - setting resources.
Here's an example I just did with the ITM reports:
New project => report project
Right click on the new project, import
Select the archive file for the import type
Navigate to the report package to be imported
Select finish
Now set the resources dir:
1. Get the resource dir in your clipboard: right click on the 'resources' folder in your project, click properties. Highlight the location and copy it.
2. Window -> Preferences. Expand Report Design. Paste in the resources location.
Your reports should now run.

Hi, it sounds like you may be using the wrong version of BIRT, compared to what the reports were written against.
You should be running with 2.2.1 or 2.2.2. If you already are, what's the XML error?
