Dynamic report generation for tax collections and discrepancies

Purpose

1.1. Automatically generate, customize, and distribute dynamic, formatted reports on tax collections and discrepancies across all government levels for audit, compliance, and analytical use.
1.2. Gather data from internal databases and external revenue services, standardize it, perform discrepancy analysis, highlight anomalies, and present actionable insights, all on recurring schedules or on demand.
1.3. Ensure reports meet agency/regulatory standards and are accessible via multiple channels (email, dashboards, secure downloads), while auditing all generation and delivery steps.

Trigger Conditions

2.1. Scheduled intervals (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly closing).
2.2. Manual request by authorized personnel via dashboard or chat.
2.3. Detection of threshold breaches (e.g., collected tax drops below target, anomaly in captured payments).
2.4. External API webhook request from risk management or audit systems.
2.5. Policy changes requiring backdated report re-generation.
