Why each option
Power BI is the recommended analytics and reporting tool in Dynamics 365 Commerce, supporting scheduled report delivery for inventory and sales statistics.
Power BI integrates natively with Dynamics 365 Commerce and supports scheduled subscriptions, enabling automated delivery of inventory and sales reports on a recurring schedule such as every Sunday night. The Power BI service allows scheduled data refreshes and report subscriptions that can be configured to distribute reports automatically on a defined cadence.
SSRS handles some operational report rendering in Dynamics 365 but is not the primary recommended tool for scheduling and distributing Commerce analytics reports in the modern Dynamics 365 environment.
Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet tool and does not natively support scheduled automated report generation and printing directly from Dynamics 365 Commerce data.
Management Reporter is a financial reporting tool specific to Dynamics 365 Finance general ledger data and is not designed for Commerce inventory or sales statistics.
Chart controls are UI rendering elements embedded in Dynamics 365 forms and are not a standalone reporting or scheduling tool.
