I need clarity to solve an effective date issue between me and a coworker.
In ReportSmith 3.0, How should effective dates be set up in selection criteria when trying to pull reports in history between dates? It seems the previous report builder built the selection criteria based on the "As of Date of User" Report Effective date criteria (which is labeled the Report Begin Date) and then created an End Date Variable. Since there is no between dates for Reports Effective dates, how can a history range be pulled for dates that may not necessary have an action attached (such as all active employees between date 1 and date 2)?
Correct me if I'm wrong but based on Mr. Cook's Effdt ppt, the Reports Effective Date is < = to the date selected. So is using the "As of Date of User" Report Effective Date variable, as the Report Begin Date would be inaccurate?
