Operational reporting

Operational reporting is intended to support the day-to-day activities of the organization.

Examples of operational reporting include bank teller end-of-day window balancing reports, daily account audits and adjustments, daily production records, flight-by-flight traveler logs and transaction logs.

Operational reporting is repetitive, done frequently, and typically involves numerous simple manual steps.
