Morphology
The meaning 'a document presenting information in written form' is directly derivable from combining 'written' (in a written format) with 'report' (an informational account). This simple adjective + noun compositional pattern is common cross-linguistically and follows standard English morphology, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily understand it.
Etymology
Written report comes from the simple idea of a report that is written down. Imagine someone collecting facts and writing them on paper so others can read the results, so it means 'a document that presents information or findings'.
