Report is a special kind of document template that can be designed to present information of multiple business objects. It is primarily intended to generate comprehensive reports in the operation mode with multiple columns, groupings, element count, subtotals, etc. Reports are designed in the report designer, which offers a variety of data presentation options for designing custom layouts, including conditional elements for presenting information differently depending on conditions.

Reports are similar to presentations. Both are designed using the same visual designer and share many features including the ability to reuse designs. The main difference is that presentations are displayed for users dynamically and can include interactive elements whereas reports are generated as page-oriented documents that can be printed, saved on disk, etc.
