Abstract
In digital environment, generating reports is an integral part of any business, and therefore there is a huge need for a tool for creating complex adaptive reports in investment, marketing activities, financial projects etc. The purpose of the paper is to formulate the requirements for GPL for the creation of custom reports in different business areas and build a software product that will use it. We have researched the possibilities of creating a universal language for building complex reports that is flexible enough to be used in any business domain. We have also identified the main requirements for such a language and the software product that would utilize it. We have paid particular attention to the peculiarities and problems associated with the creation and use of such a language, and have proposed ways to address them. As an experiment, we have created a prototype software module using a language based on mathematical formulas. The developed module can be used both for reports and for any calculations of companies engaged in product and business analytics.
