Methods, systems, and data structures are provided to generate and link reports. Requirements are received and associated with identified report processing objects used to generate report specifications defining a report. In one embodiment, new report processing objects are devised and associated with the requirements and also used in generating the report specifications. Furthermore, report specifications and a data store schema, describing a data store having data used to generate a report, are received. The report specifications and the data store schema are used to generate report metadata that can be linked to a specific report tool used to produce an instance of the report.
