Reports' Time Period

Select the time period of the report: 

All the reports support two kinds of the time period:  

•  Date Range      
  • Pulls data in the date range between the start and end date provided, including the end date.
  •  You must select a start date.
  • Leaving the end date empty will pull data according to the current time of the river's run.
  • Select a timezone offset to send dates considering the offset.
  • Use the "Last Days Back For Each Run" to expend the start date and pull data a given number of days back before the chosen start date.
    
•  Predefined date  - A date range defined by Rivery:
  • Day - Yesterday.
  • Week (From Monday to Sunday) - Week to date, Previous week, Previous week to date.
  • Month - Month to date, Previous month, Previous month to date.
  • Year - Year to date.

Interval Chunks

Rivery can run over the increment using chunks, in order to make the loading more efficient and more precise. You can choose from:

• Don't Split - Rivery will pull the data from the chosen start date to the end date in one bulk.
• Daily - The run will be chunked daily from the start to the end date.
• Monthly - The run will be chunked monthly from the start to the end date.
• Yearly (Less Recommended) -  The run will be chunked yearly from the start to the end date.

Interval Size - Set the size of each interval.  

For example - setting the Interval Size to 4 with a Daily Interval Chunk will split the date period into 4 days chunks. Running from the 01/01/2020 until the 08/01/2020 will be split to two intervals: from the 01/01/2020 until the 04/01/2020 and from the 05/01/2020 until the 08/01/2020.
