Date range
Click the "datestamp" field at the top left of the page to select the range of dates for which you would like to view details of this report. This reporting can be viewed up to two years back from the current date. By default, the selection is set to the last 7 days. When the pop-up window appears to select the date range, the system defaults to the "Rolling" date tab.

Currency
Click the "Currency" field at the top of the page to select which currency to use, if your store uses multiple currencies. A new Currency window will appear and allow you to select from all currencies that are being sent in the data for the selected account. (We do not aggregate currency data.) In the example shown below, only one currency is available: U.S. dollars (usd).
Note: The default currency is pulled from the website info page in Settings > Website settings > Website info.
Click the toggle at the bottom of the pop-up window to "Show unfiltered values". Values selected in other filters limit the values shown in this filter by default. Enable the toggle to see all values; for example, if you choose "Country" as "U.S.", you will see only U.S. currency in the "Currency" filter by default. Switch the toggle on to see a list of all currencies.

Click any of the available options to select one (options that do not apply to this product insight will be grayed out) and click the "Next" button at the bottom right.
You can update the alert name, set the frequency (daily, weekly, etc.) and time, and add subscribers to the alert by clicking within the box to choose from available email addresses. Type within the "Add custom message for receiver" box to include custom text with the alert; this is optional.
You can also click the drop-down arrow at the right of "View KPI query" to see details of how the query will apply.
