A lengthy discussion has resulted in some quite good ideas regarding the reporting tool.
Currently playing PFS online can be tiresome with all the print out a chronicle sheet -> fill spots -> scan -> send routine. It could be managed digitally otherwise, but the need of a signature often forces one to use paper. I, for one, don't own a printer and often need to print out everything at work. Not the most ideal solution.
A local player owns a tablet and often prefers to run the games using it and no paper at all. So if the reporting tool would include a 'virtual' chronicle sheet where the GM could fill in the rewarded wealth and other prestige and then send it to the players in question after the reporting is concluded, some people would be really happy. This would also be very good for those who play a lot online. Also since the GM would use the reporting tool with his own account it'd easily count as a valid signature.
Even if this proposition would encounter difficulties, I hope Paizo gives it consideration. Paizo is quite handy with PDFs anyway, so I don't think it'd be a technical impossibility.

This would be excellent for online players, but not for players sitting around a table being told by their GM with a laptop or tablet that he has just sent them their Chronicle via email (or to their Paizo account) - especially if the players are at a convention.
As long as it remains the player's decision to get a printed chronicle sheet if they want it, this would be a cool addition. Though, I'm guessing the tech department has a lot of other cool things to get to first.

Of course. This method should not trump over the traditional.
