My Custom Reports

A custom report is similar to a Standard Report, except Custom Reports grants the user the flexibility of adding any report items that would be most beneficial to them. Custom reports show up in the left sidebar, directly under Standard Reports, and are also available for email reports.

In My Custom Reports, a user can create, edit or delete Custom Reports.

2. Name - Enter a descriptive name for the custom report
3. Default Date Range - Choose a default date range for the report items in the custom report
