Day filters

By default, the selected date range includes all days between the start date and the end date. For example, if you are looking at the month of March, the results include data for all days (Sundays through Saturdays) in March. When you select the dates, you can turn on day filters to focus on certain days-of-the-week or business days and filter out data for all other days.

To use day filters

  1. Access the date settings by clicking in the title bar of the widget or clicking on Date Range under context in the toolkit.

  2. Click the Day Filters button at the top of the dialog.

  3. Choose which days to filter out.

    To choose days of the week, clicking the buttons at the top of the dialog. The buttons of the days to include should be blue.

    To select customized business days, click the drop-down menu. This option must be set up by your administrator.

  4. Choose from the following options for time-series analyses that show individual days. To completely remove the filtered days as well as the data, check the Hide Filtered Time Periods option. To show the days but remove the data (i.e., show zeros for those days), clear this option.

Tip: When a day filter is selected, the view only includes data for the selected days. For transactional data, this means that the results will only include records that occurred on the selected days. If the dataset includes non-transactional data, you should also understand how day filters affect non-transactional data.
