Methods and systems for locating related reports are provided. A report application identifies a first report to process along with preference selections associated with finding related reports to the first report being processed. A data preparation application performs an initial filter against a report data store using the first report and the preference selections. The data preparation application passes candidate reports and the first report to a data mining application. The data mining application uses the first report, the candidate reports, and a report usage data store to find relationships and associations with additional reports. In one embodiment, the additional reports are ranked and organized before being presented to the report application as related reports to the first report.
