Time Navigation

In the lower pane of a report, table or analysis you will find the time slider. The time slider is the basis on which the values are calculated and displayed.

The entire time span and the base time step of the time slider are defined in the underlying data source. The displayed values are calculated with reference to the set active time span.

Time step

By choosing the time step, you can define the display of the time slider. Depending on the base time step of the data source, you can choose from the following time steps:

•	months as the base time step: months, quarters, thirds, half-years, years

•	days as the base time step: days, months, quarters, thirds, half-years, years

Double-click left or right of the time slider to move the active time span left or right by the entire time span of the time slider.
