Understanding Reporting Parameters
Before creating a report, it is important to understand reporting parameters and how they will
impact the reports you create. Simply stated, reporting parameters are the adjustable settings
that you control when you create a report. These parameters determine the specific information
that will be included in the report and, depending on the values that are used, can produce
strikingly different results. You can think of setting reporting parameters as a method of targeting
and shaping your GPS data. As you gain experience and become more familiar with how these
settings impact your reports, you will be able to quickly create reports that zero-in on the detailed
information you need to manage your vehicles more efficiently.
Beginning / Ending Time
The Beginning / Ending Time setting is directly related to the Start and End Date that is selected.
Both settings are based on the 24-hour Military Time format where 00:00 represents 12:00 AM
or midnight, and 23:59 represents 11:59 PM or one minute before midnight. This setting controls
the time frame that will be included in the report for the Date that is selected. Only the GPS data
that falls within this time frame will be used in the report.
