Ad-hoc reports are user-requested reports or queries that have been created for a one-time need. The term “ad-hoc” is derived from Latin and means “for this” or “for this particular purpose.” Ad-hoc queries are used to mine a dataset for previously unseen data points or correlations. They enable users to dive deep into a dataset to quickly and easily uncover important insights, often with just a few keystrokes. Ad-hoc reports are invaluable tools for making informed decisions in any business setting.
