Default "Based on Criteria"
When any of my users log in to Winddows Analytics the default view (top bar of the window) will say "based on one day
This does confuse some people
The three Windows Analytics solutions behave differently here.
Upgrade Readiness and Update Compliance use a snapshot model for the data, this means we send a complete set of data every 24 hours in the case of UR and every 12 hours in the case or UC. When you go into the solutions we automatically default to the latest snapshot. If you change the time period in scope you get data duplication / multiplication. We use a snapshot model for perf reasons (it is too slow or impossible to create some of the aggregate values (e. g. app inventory) thorugh OMS queries).
Device Health data does not use snapshots but aggregates all data on the fly, so changing the time range there works as expected.
Feedback taken on the confusing user experience. We will most likely address this in the future.
