Morphology

nonreportable = reportable (transparent) = non + report + able

The negative prefix 'non-' attaches to 'reportable' (report + -able), yielding a clear negated meaning 'not reportable'.

Etymology

Nonreportable comes from the parts non- 'not', report 'to tell or record', and -able 'able', the same root you see in reporter. So, it means 'not required or suitable to be officially reported', for example a small incident that does not need to be put in the official records.
