A report connects a question to a source, definitions, calculations, and presentation. A dashboard shows ongoing measures; a report usually documents a period, context, and audience. Its value depends on data quality, freshness, and clear metric definitions.
A defined calculation makes an observation comparable.
Collection, transformation, and aggregation produce report data.
Purpose and recipients determine detail and presentation.
