How do I select a default date for a Report apart from the work period?

Greetings Friends,

When I Click on a Report, in the report module, it displays the report with the date range as the Work Period.

Can I change the default daterange of a report to something else?

I understand I can change the daterange by using the textbox above after the default report has been generated.

But, is there any way, I can store the daterange within the report template?

Thanks,

Somil
