Datum Shift

I received a report from a vendor where they are showing everything on a part 100% in tolerance. I have checked the part myself and show quite a few things out of tolerance. On their report I noticed a term "DATUM SHIFT" and some variables "X,Y,Z", etc. just before each dimension is reported. My question is this, What exactly is "DATUM SHIFT" and what is it doing? Is there some kind of data manipulation going on here?
