An intermediate server synchronizes reporting data between a requestor computing device and an effector computing device. The server stores a plurality of event identifiers, and a plurality of reporting templates. Each template has a template identifier, and a mapping between a subset of the event identifiers and a set of reporting stages. The server, responsive to a production task request from the requestor device, obtains a selected templated identifier and generates a reporting data record for the production task request. The reporting data record includes fields for each stage defined by the selected template. After relaying the production task request to the effector device, the server receives reporting data from the effector device, containing values corresponding for a reported subset of the events. The server stores a portion of the values in the reporting data record according to the template; and transmits the reporting data record to the requestor device.
