HI Srikanth,

Script is a form which has a layout set as per the company standards and can be used for external use too. Generally reports are designed for internal use for in house users

Hi,

<b>SAP Script </b>supplies the layout (for example, page size) and

content (for example, sales data for an invoice) for your business

forms. You need SAPscript forms to print, distribute, or display the

business forms.

A <b>Report </b>is the way to display data fetched from database table onto screen or directly output it to a printer. It is of two types – Classical and Interactive. Generally reports are designed for internal use for in house users.
