Hi,
I am building a ASP financial reporting application. Here the user inputs
quarterly financial information. The data obtained is being used for
uploading a separate in-house application. The end-user should be in a
postion to run reports on their own based on the quarterly information they
furnish via the web applciation.

My question here is what is the best way to devleop reports in the asp
applications so that users can view their own report online? Somebody
suggested pure html reports. However, I believe there should be better ones

depends on what you need.
DataDynamica (www.DataDynamics.com) had lots of nice stuff.
ChartFX has good stuff.
There is always Crystal Reports too. Pick up MSDN Magazine and browse
through it... you'll find TONS of ads for tools.

Most definitely...
The magazine has tons of great product ads. While more and more are geared
towards ASP.NET, or just .NET in general, you will still get the
manufactures of these tools. Go to their sites, you will see that many still
have ASP components and tools.

That's the most common by far. A close second (in the Microsoft world)
is to write ASP pages (that output pure HTML).

What do you want to achieve that cannot be achieved with HTML?

As always, if your boss wants you to use Microsoft's SQL Server Reports
