4. Reporting Basics
If you select Absolute Dates, click the down arrow in the From and To
boxes to display a calendar:
Double-click on a day in the calendar to select it. You can also click on
the left and right arrows in the calendar to display different months.
To enter times, highlight the time values and use the up and down
arrows to adjust them. Time is shown in 24-hour format. For example,
8:00 is 8:00 A.M. and 17:00 is 5:00 P.M.
If you leave the To time field set to 23:59, the report displays data up to
the current time. (Optionally, you can type dates and times directly into
the From and To boxes.)
Relative Dates
Relative dates allow you to select a predefined period of time for the
report relative to today’s date. Choose this option if, for example, you
want the report to display data for the previous day, last week, or the
current month. For example, if you choose Relative, you can choose an
option such as “Last Week” as a Date Time. This would provide data for
the last full week (that is, Sunday through Saturday).
If you select Relative Dates, click the down arrow in the From box to
display a drop-down list of relative date ranges:
Choose options such as Today, This Week, or Yesterday. Enter From
and To times by highlighting the values and using the up and down
arrows to adjust the times. If you leave the To time field set to 23:59, the
report will display data up to the current time. (Optionally, you can type
the dates and times directly into the From and To boxes.)
