    Hi Saurabh,

    An analytic snapshot letsyou report on historical data. Authorized users can save tabular orsummary report results to fields on a custom object, then map thosefields to corresponding fields on a target object. They can then schedulewhen to run the report to load the custom object's fields with thereport's data. Analytic snapshots enable you to work with report data similarly to how you workwith other records in Salesforce.

    Hi,

    An Analytic Snapshot helps us to create report on historical data.

    Analytic Snapshots comprises of three things:
    A source Report of type Tabular or Summary
    A Custom Object with fields matching the columns in the source Report
    An Analytic Snapshot definition, which maps fields and schedules the snapshot runs

    Salesforce Analytic Snapshots you are able to create and store snapshots of data that you want to monitor, using custom objects. Authorized users can save tabular or summary report results to fields on a custom object, then map those fields to corresponding fields on a target object. They can then schedule when to run the report to load the custom object's fields with the report's data. Analytic snapshots enable you to work with report data similarly to how you work with other records in Salesforce.

     

    Thanks.
