QS is for users who want to look in some data without having any knowledge of report building..
QS is a drag and drop query tool which can be used for users who want to look up ad-hoc information...

QuoteA request for data from a database that arises at the spur of the moment, and might never be repeated. Generally these queries are not named and saved as queries that will be repeated are.

Ad Hoc reporting meams creating reports on the fly, a report that is specific to the requirement at that particular time, a report that is not pre-made, a report that pulls data on-line depending on what is required at that time. It had different meanings but the bottomline is that Ad Hoc report is basically a report that is created specific to the requirements when the requirement comes up.

Managed Reporting is reports that are either made, or the templates of which are pre-made and distributed to users in an organised manner.

A couple of other major differences between them...

Ã,  Ã, QS - Fairly easy and quick to learn.Ã,  Pretty limited in formating and
Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã, Ã,  calculation abilities. Good tool for the average end-user.

Ã,  Ã, RS - Takes a fair amount of time and perseverance to learn.
Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã, Ã,  Ã,  Program is very robust. Good tool for power-users; too difficult
Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã, Ã,  Ã,  for average end-users.
