Can I Change the Time Period Shown?
In the Analytics area, you have full control over the reporting period: easily select a preset time frame or define your own dates.
Answer
Yes, you can change the displayed time period at any time. To do this, click the Date Range button at the top of the Analytics section, which is located below the Add Filter button and, by default, shows the last 30 days.
A menu will open where you can choose from several predefined periods, such as Yesterday, This Week, or Last 30 Days. Alternatively, you can set a custom range using Start Date and End Date. Use the arrow buttons to quickly move between Previous 30 Days and Next 30 Days to shift the time window. The Reset option quickly returns you to the standard period (usually the last 30 days) without any further adjustments.
Accessing the Function
You will find the date filter in the Main Menu under Analytics. At the top of the page, these elements are easily accessible:
- The Calendar Date Range button for custom or preset time frames.
- The two arrows to quickly switch to the previous or next time period.
Settings & Options
In the Date Range dialog, you have several options:
- With Start Date and End Date, you can select any custom analysis period.
- The following presets are available:
- Yesterday
- This Week
- This Month
- Last Year
- Last 7/30/60/90/180/365 Days
- Custom Range
- At the bottom, three actions are available:
- Reset: Returns the time period to the default setting.
- Cancel: Closes the dialog without making changes.
- Save: Applies your selected period.
Limitations & Special Notes
Please note that data is always available up to yesterday only – you cannot select today or future dates. Very long time periods may also increase loading times.
Tips & Best Practices
- Use the arrows for Previous 30 Days and Next 30 Days to quickly switch between time windows.
- For fast analysis, options like Last 7 Days are helpful; they save time and keep reports clear.
- The selected time period is stored in the URL and remains if you use the Copy URL option.
