   You're asking about making a stopped dovetail shaped groove on the back of the drawer's front panel? 

   Whether it is done on a router table or with a jig to guide a hand held router, I can't picture any way of doing it that wouldn't require some change in the set up for the left and right ends, but it wouldn't seem that difficult to get matching grooves.

   Check out this router jig for cutting sliding dovetails in drawer fronts. I didn't study the image but I suspect it might do the trick.
