Report Period Definition

 

Report periods are user-defined.  Up to 100 periods can be defined for each plant, each period representing the number of workdays.  A sample definition of report periods is shown below:

          A Sample Definition of Report Period.

 

In this example, each report period represents a working week.  In periods three and four, there are only four working days in each period because of a public holiday in each week.  These periods are used by the load summary inquiry and report programs, in which there is a limit of 500 days between the requested start and end dates.  The start date entered on the Load Summary/Detail Inquiry Function Select screens and Load Summary/Detail Report Request screens is considered day one of period one.
