Description

Wusage 7.0 and above offer the ability to answer queries, based on information learned while generating previous reports. See the Quick Queries section for more information. The number of previous reports which can be used as a basis for an answer depends on the Keep Quick-Query Data for How Many Reports? (keepdata) option.

Please note that the necessary data can take up significant disk space. It is best to limit the setting to a reasonable value.

The setting of this option applies equally to Daily Reports (daily), Weekly Reports (weekly), Monthly Reports (monthly), Quarterly Reports (quarterly) and Annual Reports (annual) reports. That is, if the Keep Quick-Query Data for How Many Reports? (keepdata) option is set to 52, data will be kept for the 52 most recent days, weeks, months, and so on, if those reporting options are present.

Query data is always kept for the cumulative Summary Reports (summary) report, unless Keep Quick-Query Data for How Many Reports? (keepdata) has been set to 0.
