Explanation

Pulling previous close outs reports from a historic time frame is very limited. Note, that if you are closing the day, month, and year, or the day, and month, you have to pull the reports based on the time frame you want. In other words, you will pull Daily reports using Day Close & Reports group with the time frame of Prior Daily Close Out, use Day/Mth Close & Reports group for just the Monthly reports, and Day/Mth/Year Close & Reports group for only the Yearly reports. You can not pull the day and year using the Monthly Close Out, nor can you pull the monthly and daily using the Prior Yearly Close Outs.
