The second step of the report wizard allows you to set the input data needed to generate the report.

First of all we need to select a date as the report current date. Here we can choose an exact date when an update was made. For convenience, a "Last update" date is also available so you can generate the report for the day the last update was made.
If we want to compare the curent day data with the data from an earlier date, all we need to do is check the "Show changes compared to" option and select a date from the drop down list. Here too you can choose "Previous update" and the report will always consider the previous update date as the comparison date.
There are two types of input data: Domains and Search Engines. By default all the domains and search engines are included in the report. To choose only some of them, uncheck the "Include all domains" option for example and use the "Select..." button that appears on the right side to select only the domains you are interested in.
