reportrelated

Reportrelated is a term used in information systems and software development to describe items—such as data fields, modules, attributes, or APIs—that are related to reporting functions. It is typically encountered as a compound adjective (reportrelated) or as a camelCase form (reportRelated) in code and data schemas. The term is not a standardized concept in formal ontologies; rather, it emerges from practical naming conventions in projects that emphasize reporting capabilities.

In databases and data warehouses, a flag or attribute labeled reportrelated may indicate that a record or dimension is included in one or more reports. In application programming interfaces, a field such as reportrelated or reportRelated can signal a linkage between an entity and the reporting layer, for example that a given object supports or participates in reporting.

Usage varies by project; some teams prefer terms like reportable or reportingRelated. When used, it should be well documented to avoid ambiguity, as nonstandard terms can hinder data governance and interoperability.

Examples include a CRM data model where a customer record has a boolean reportrelated to suggest whether the customer is included in standard sales reports, or a data access layer annotation indicating a report-related cache dependency. See also reporting, reportable, data governance, metadata.
