REPORT
In LibreOffice Base, reports help you to analyse and interpret data. Reports present data in a structured
and visually appealing format, making it easier to communicate findings to others, including non-technical
stakeholders. They provide the necessary information to make informed decisions by summarising or

a meaningful and useful manner and can obtain information from tables or queries. Additionally, reports are
printed to share information.
