reporte

Reporte is a Spanish noun meaning a report, briefing, or account that compiles and presents information about events, results, or observations. It is used across fields such as journalism, business, administration, and science, and can refer to both formal documents and shorter updates.

In many Spanish-speaking countries, reporte and informe are used somewhat differently. Informe usually denotes a formal, comprehensive document produced after analysis or investigation, while reporte tends to indicate a shorter, time-sensitive summary or update. However usage varies by region; in some places they are often used interchangeably.

Common contexts include el reporte semanal de ventas, el reporte meteorológico, y el reporte de incidencias. In journalism, a reporte is a field dispatch or news report; in corporate environments, it may be a status report to managers. In information technology, reportes are generated by software to summarize data, often as dashboards or printed sheets.

The plural is reportes. Related terms include informe (more formal document) and resumen (brief summary).
