reporting
The systematic creation and transmission of reports, especially in a business context. It includes the collection, preparation, and presentation of data and key figures for management or other stakeholders.

'Reporting' is a word from English. Like many English words ending in '-ing' that describe an activity, it is neuter in German: das Reporting.
Das Reporting für das letzte Quartal ist sehr positiv ausgefallen.

This word is used almost exclusively in professional and business contexts. It belongs to the typical vocabulary used in companies, project management, and finance.

Common combinations are 'das monatliche/tägliche Reporting' (the monthly/daily reporting), 'ein Reporting erstellen' (to create a report/reporting), or 'das Reporting an jemanden schicken' (to send the reporting to someone). It often describes a recurring process.
Bitte erstellen Sie bis morgen ein kurzes Reporting zu den Verkaufszahlen.

report
'der Bericht' and 'das Reporting' are closely related because reporting involves creating and passing on reports. 'Bericht' usually means a single text or a single oral account of facts. 'Reporting' more often means the whole regular process, especially in companies: collecting data, preparing figures, and giving them to management. The words are easy to confuse because both have to do with information and reports. If you mean a specific document, you say 'Bericht'. If you mean the organized process in a company, 'Reporting' fits better.
