+== Simple Reports ==
+
+This release includes a new Simple Reports reporting system focused on ease of
+use and simplicity that is available from the Administration menu of the
+staff client. Simple Reports can be restricted by staff permissions and
+access to the overall feature is granted through a new RUN_SIMPLE_REPORTS
+permission.
+
+The Simple Reports interface is intended to provide an alternate access point
+for running reports in Evergreen and is not intended to replace the main
+Reports interface. In particular, users in need of complex reports should
+still make use of the main Reports interface.
+
+To simplify report creation some fields are generated from multiple backend
+fields and other fields such as dates are repeated with multiple transforms
+pre-applied. Reports and schedules can be edited at any time as needed.
