Documentation

Definition

Use

If you set a frequency type as flexible, the generated periods will not necessarily be aligned with the calendar. Then the start date of the first period in the list is defined by the selection range begin date.

Please do not set this checkbox if you expect your periods to be aligned with the calendar (weeks = calendar weeks).

Dependencies

Example

If you set the frequency type Weekly as flexible, the period could begin on a Wednesday and end on a Tuesday. The start day of the period or period list depends on the selection range.

If you want to see all weeks between 10/21/2012 and 12/31/2012, the weeks generated will start on a Wednesday and end on a Tuesday.
