Report/View Ranges
At the time that you generate a web log report, you have the option to specify the date or time range within the log file on which to report. In the Range tab of the Create Report window, you can specify your own or select from a drop-down list of predefined time and date ranges.
Note: While WebTrends attempts to analyze and report on the specified Report Range within the log file processed, you need to ensure that the specified range corresponds to existing dates in the log file. For example, if the analyzed log file contains data for only the last week of activity, WebTrends is not be able to provide meaningful monthly averages.
