Ad-Hoc reporting is the process of creating reports on the fly, and these reports are not anticipated while coding the production report.

2. What is Ad-hoc Reporting?
Ad-Hoc reporting is the process of creating reports
on the fly, and these reports are not anticipated
while coding the production report. Through Ad-Hoc
reporting, you can analyze a specific business
question that you had not previously thought of and
that your existing report is not capable of answering.
When it comes to business intelligence, Ad-Hoc
reporting adds to regular reporting by enabling users
to quickly build new reports from scratch or edit the
reports made previously. All of this can be done
without the involvement of the IT department.

3. 1. Reports from Scratch
Ad-Hoc reports provide end users with a blank canvas
and well-groomed data to build their own report as
needed.
2. Display tabular detail
It is very important for the end user to have access to
tabular details while building a custom report.

changes to them.

5. The goal of Ad-Hoc reporting is to allow end users to
ask specific questions of their company data, without
the intervention of IT, to create a myriad of reports
for different functions and purposes. Ad-Hoc
reporting makes sense when multiple users see,
understand, and act on data independently, while
looking at the same numbers. Ad-Hoc reporting
helps you make multidimensional data easy to work
with for on the fly analysis. It allows you to generate
meaningful custom reports without building formal
templates.
