reporting OR input (context dependent)
It depends entirely on your context.
In an IT setting it can mean either pure reporting, or also "input", of data for example.

feeding - or - entering of data
I don't think you 'report' data into a computer in English, rather, you enter or feed data into the computer in order to generate a report based on the data.
