How very sly of you to write up your report before the person you bullied could report you for harassment.
An "account" is not a "report". As I said, he hasn't been reported for anything (and likely won't be, since he came to me later that same afternoon and said he wanted to talk this out between the two of us).
This is a standard practice recommended by HR professionals whenever there's a run-in between co-workers. Memory is fallible, so it's best to set down the facts as soon as you can in case you're required to recall them later as part of some formal process. I've been doing it (and recommending it to my direct reports) for almost as long as I've been in full-time work. IME, the accounts are almost never needed, but I still believe they're worthwhile.
