Sometimes business personnel want to build their own reports. In many cases, users know their own data and know what type of information they want to search for. And, users may not want to wait for IT to schedule the report development, build the report and then deliver it to in a few days, a week or a month later. The user may also want to schedule reports for delivery, share reports among their team members, archive reports for historical reference, and so on.
The best report is often a query or the report the information consumer, that is, the actual end user, builds to quickly answer a current business question.
