Date ranges

Use the Date ranges functionality to choose the calculation period.

If you want to generate Time in Status app report with specific date ranges, you need to set two types of dates:

  1. Issues range– for issue list selection.

E.g., You want to select issues that were resolved last week.

Time range – for data calculation.

E.g., You want to get the time only for the chosen issues and a certain period.

*If you haven't set it, it will calculate the time data for the whole period (option Any date - selected by default).
