Haven't used it yet, but I guess it's typically used to create forms, reports, mail merges etc.

In LO / OOo, one can create (or connect to) a database, create some tables and/or queries,
and then create a report or form. Base will invoke Writer, and one can add form controls,
cycle through the records etc.

Maybe KOffice / Calligra supports this as well (Kexi ?), haven't tested it.
