In today’s business scenario clients are usually at scattered global locations. Organisations need to keep clients up-to-date with the progress of a job. Staying in close communication with bosses and clients and exchanging information about the current position of the job is an important part of the everyday professional work requirement.
A Status Report is a frequent update an employee gives to a manager or client. Status Reports symbolize a critical communication within any reporting relationship across all job functions, industries and company size.

A good Status Report will not only help your manager to control the process, but will also help keep you on target with your assignments.
