Explain report authoring, report management, and report delivery

What will be an ideal response?


Report authoring involves connecting to data sources, creating a report structure, and formatting the report. Organizations can author reports by using a developer tool like Microsoft's Visual Studio. The purpose of report management is to define who receives what reports, when, and by what means. Most report management systems allow a report administrator to define user accounts and user groups and to assign particular users to particular groups. The report delivery function of a reporting system pushes reports or allows them to be pulled according to report management metadata. Reports can be delivered via an email server, via a Web site, via SOA services, or by other program-specific means.
