Performance Reporting is the process for  "collecting and distributing performance information" like "status reporting, progress measurement, and forecasting" (comp. PMBOK3, p. 221): On the base of the collected performance information concerning scope, schedule, cost and quality this process generates the reports which are distributed to the stakeholders (comp. PMBOK3, p. 231). Basicly one can determine four types of reports:

• Forcast reports for describing future trends

• Progess reports for describing trends from past to presence

• Status reports for describing actual status

• Variance reports for describing differences between the planned baseline and the real data
