Changing the report date range

Date/Time picker

Most full reports have a date range selection tool (date/time picker) that you can use to change the range of data you are viewing in the report. This tool helps control the amount of information that you are viewing on a report.

You can select both start and end times for the report.

You can select from the following date ranges:

• Today
• Yesterday
• Last Week
• Previous Month
• Week To Date
• Month To Date
• Last 2 Hours
• Last 4 Hours
• Last 8 Hours
• Last 3 Days
• Last 7 Days
• Last 30 Days
• Custom

Note: The date and time format for full reports matches the format specified in the WhatsUp Gold console (Configure > Program Options > Regional).

The Zoom toolbar allows you to zoom the current date range in or out by selecting the zoom in or zoom out icons. The arrows on the toolbar control moving the selected date range forward and backward one calendar day.
