First, reports provide knowledge to the team members about the team’s progress on a daily, weekly or monthly  basis, making all members updated most of the time. The whole team will have a grasp of the team’s accomplishments, plans, and problems on a period basis and it enables them to prioritize issues and discuss about them.Daily status report is a kind of report that shows a status or progress of something, usually a task or a project, on a daily basis.

Some alternatives to daily status reports are weekly reports and monthly reports. As compared to daily reports, weekly and monthly reports can be less time-consuming, since they are not to be submitted every day. However, these reports should contain precise and complete details, since completeness and accuracy are key elements to the report output.

In addition, weekly and monthly reports both contain the highlight of the occurrences and issues within the given time-frame as compared to daily reports. However, it cannot be denied that daily status reports are more complete and detailed than other reports.
