The filters
Any relevant filters in use on the main Reports screen will be automatically applied to this Report but can still be configured as needed.
- There are two date-based drop-downs. First is the "Reference Date" drop-down and second is the "Range" drop-down.
- Reference Date: Expand the drop-down to choose which type of date should be referenced by the Report. For example, select "Created in" if you want the Report to reference only those Items that were created in the specified date range.
- Range: Expand the drop-down to choose the range of dates that should be included in the Report.
- All Time removes any date range parameters.
- Custom allows you to enter any date range you want.
- Past shows you a rolling date range that counts back from the current calendar date.
- Current shows you data for the current week, month, quarter, or year.
- Last shows you data for the previous week, month, quarter, or year.
Pro Tip: The Last YTD option helps you set a date range matching the current year-to-date period but for the previous year instead. For example, if it is March 15th, 2024, and you select Last YTD, your Report will cover data from January 1st, 2023, to March 15th, 2023. This logic is also true for the Last MTD and QTD options.
