Generate a report in Sharepoint

Hi, I'm developing a leave request system in the SharePoint site and Power Automate. From a SharePoint list, a report can be generated but how for HR to generate the monthly report for all the employees who use the SharePoint site to apply for leave on the SP list? What is the best way for it?

Thank you.

        anonymous9376 SharePoint is not good at reporting. You can export to Excel or build a flow in Power Automate with a recurrence schedule set to 1 month, get the relevant items using a filter query and create an HTML table which you could be  emailed to HR. Easier just to export to Excel.
