From what I have understood, you have migrated the data from one object to another. If migration has been done properly then all the records should be same, assuming the source and the destination objects and their child are similar. Hence creating a report to compare the data would mean that your client wants to check whether if every record has been replicated perfectly. To obtain this you have to use joined reports. You can add report types to a joined report if they have relationships with the same object or objects.
You can check the following links to know more about joined reports:
