There are two basic types of management reports–programmed and ad hoc. Describe each and give examples
Programmed reports provide information to solve anticipated problems and make normal decisions. They include scheduled reports such as daily sales reports and on-demand reports generated by need such as inventory below reorder point (the report is generated when the inventory level fall to reorder–the report is demanded by the system based on the previously set inventory level). Ad hoc reports are the result of immediate need for information and may take the form of database queries on sales of a particular item mentioned in a news report.
