End-User Query, Reporting, and Analysis
Class systems of Query & Reporting are designed to form queries to information systems in user terms, as well as their execution, integration of data from different sources, viewing data with the possibilities of detailing and summarizing and building full-fledged reports, both on-screen and printed. Visualization of query results can be presented to the user in various forms - flat or multidimensional tables, graphs, charts, various specialized interfaces.
End-user tools for querying and building reports are delivered in two ways:
- as part of OLAP-systems
- in the form of specialized Query & Reporting
Virtually every OLAP class system is equipped with Query & Reporting. These funds can be either embedded in the main product or separated into a separate product.
There are also specialized systems for generating and distributing reports. At the same time, these systems incorporate their own OLAP-means. Therefore, to draw a clear line between OLAP-systems and systems of class Query & Reporting is almost impossible.

Almost every company, large or small, needs a reporting tool or they have already one in place. But, what is the difference between reporting software and Business Intelligence tools?

What is the difference between a query and a report?
A query is a way to create a list of accounts or journal entries that match your criteria. Requests serve as an advanced search engine that finds and groups accounts or journal entries and can only create a list.
A report is a detailed report of a group of accounts or journal entries. Reports analyze data and are designed to calculate and present data in a more formal form.
Typically, a query finds information in the database for you, and a report is a more powerful way to display and analyze information about the accounts or log entries you want to view.
