Accomplishments since last report
A project status report is a communication tool that provides stakeholders with a snapshot of project progress. 'Accomplishments since last report' is a standard section that summarizes completed tasks and achieved milestones, allowing stakeholders to see what has been delivered since the previous update. This aligns with the PMBOK Guide's guidance on performance reporting, which focuses on work performance data and information.
