<img class="screenshot" src="http://www.tri-line.com/common/img/documentation/tim_plus/report_filters.png" alt="Report filters" />

<p>Each filter is described in the table below. Alongside each filter there's also an Information icon 
<img class="icon" src="http://www.tri-line.com/common/img/documentation/tim_plus/info_button.png" /> 
which you can click on to see a help prompt describing that particular filter.end date,
and in more specific reports, a start time and end time.  These can
be entered manually by selecting Custom Period from the Period
section of a report's selection criteria window.  For ease-of-use and
simplicity, the report engine also provides the user with the ability
to select Periods which are calculated at the time the report
is executed, thus sparing the user the task of having to check with a
calendar for specific dates.</p>

<p>When the report is executed, if the user has selected an in-built period, the reporting
engine simply substitutes the start and end dates based on the
current date and the period the user selected.</p>

<p>The built-in periods are based on a standard Gregorian calendar and are defined as
follows:</p>
