Selection of Time for Last x days
« on: May 20, 2010, 16:16:42 »
I think that the reports for Last day, 7 days, etc. should automatically select 00:00 to 23:59 for the time start/end as well as selecting the previous day for hte period end date and going back from there. 

If I select Last 30, I expect to see from Yesterday back 30 days, not 30 24 hour periods from now

Thanks.

Carlos.

If I click Lat 7 days at 07:59 server time

I really don't expect to have :

Period start date: May 14 2010, 07:58 
Period end date: May 21 2010, 07:58 

I would expect to see:

Period start date: May 13 2010, 00:00 
Period end date: May 20 2010, 23:59

Thats the "Last week" option on top.

The options on the top row - Today | Yesterday | The day before yesterday correctly go from 00:00 to 23:59, but the options in the bottom row : Last day | Last 7 Days | Last 30 Days | Last 90 days go from "now" back in 24 hour periods.

If I run the reports now at 12:41 local time here's what I get:

 - Today - May 26, 00:00 to May 26 2010, 23:59
 - Yesterday - May 25, 00:00 to May 25 2010, 23:59
 - The day before yesterday - May 24, 00:00 to May 24 2010, 23:59
 - Last day - May 25, 12:41 to May 26 2010, 12:41 -
 - Last 7 Days - May 19, 12:41 to May 26 2010, 12:41
 - Last 30 days - April 26, 12:41 to May 26 2010, 12:41
 - Last 90 Days - February 25, 12:41 to May 26 2010, 12:41

The options that start with Last are going back in 24 hour periods from "now" rather than starting from the end of yesterday, and going x days back.

I would also add that a Last month would be helpful as well, using the last complete calendar month that has passed.  If I ran Last month today, I would expect to see all of April.

In effects, we could add "Last week" and "Last month" meaning a week from now and a month from now (0-23) to the top row.
Do you think this would be helpful?
