Period Selectors
You can use different period selectors as range selectors or "end of" selectors. For example, with the period selector Last Fiscal Year to Period, the returned range is FY-1 | FP FY-1. If you use it with "end of," it returns as of FP FY-1. These period ranges are also available as alternate options for customized reports. For reports that don’t use accounting periods, date ranges are used as filters instead.
The following assumptions are for the purposes of date range examples.
-
Fiscal quarters fall under May 1-July 31, August 1-October 31, November 1-January 31, and February 1–April 30, however, fiscal quarters can vary depending on your business preference.
-
In the United States, a week starts on a Sunday.
-
Fiscal periods are defined as calendar months, however, fiscal periods can vary depending on your business preference. In this case, the report returns data as a snapshot as of July 31 at 11:59 p.m.
-
Calendar weeks for a month begin when the first day of the month occurs from the previous Sunday. This means that a calendar week for August can begin in July.
