# Report Formatting

### Set Week Start Preferences

Use this setting to define **which day your reporting week starts on**.

#### How it works

* Select your preferred **week start day** using the radio button
* All reports and scheduled runs will follow this weekday preference

#### When this is useful

* Aligning reports with your business or accounting week
* Ensuring weekly reports match internal calendars

Example:\
If your week starts on **Monday**, all weekly reports will calculate data from Monday to Sunday.

***

### Include Current Day

This option controls whether **today’s data** is included when using relative date ranges.

#### What happens when enabled

* The **end date is always set to today**
* Relative ranges include **today’s date**

Example:\
If you select **Last 30 Days**, the report will include:

* The last **29 completed days**
* **Plus today**

#### When to enable this

* When you want real-time or near-real-time reporting
* For daily monitoring and performance tracking

***

### Add Currency to Reports

This is a **global setting** that adds currency symbols to monetary values in reports.

#### What happens when enabled

* Currency symbols are displayed in **all monetary metric fields**
* Applies to **all reports and exports**

Example:\
Instead of `1000`, the report shows `₹1000` or `$1000`

#### Good to know

* This setting applies globally
* Ideal for presentation-ready reports and exports

***

### CSV Encoding Option

This setting lets you choose the **encoding format** for CSV exports.

#### Why this matters

* Ensures correct display of special characters
* Prevents formatting issues when opening CSV files in Excel or other tools

#### When to adjust

* If your data includes special characters or non-English text
* If CSV files are not displaying correctly after export
