If you are applying a filter to a multi-value attribute based on one of the values of the attribute, it is recommended that you use the list does contain partial match or list does not contain partial match condition, instead of the contains or does not contain condition.
The list does contain partial match or the list does not contain partial match condition will return all values for the attribute, where the contains or does not contain condition will only return the value specified in the filter.

Click Values and select a value from the list.
If you are applying a filter to a date-related attribute, you can select a value that is a specific date or a date range based on a sliding window of time. The date range can be a number of days, weeks, or months. This value is applied based on the current date and time at the moment the report template is run.
For example, if you specify five days and run the report template today at 18:00 hours, the report content is based on data in the Reporter database that was collected over the last five days. The time frame for the data in question would start from today at 18:00 hours and go back to five days ago at 18:00 hours.
