The current setup for selecting Gift Date in reports is only based on a specific date range. However, we often receive multi-year gifts where a donor will commit to a gift several years in advance. I propose that an option be added where the Gift Date filter can be left blank to capture all gifts to the Campaign/Fund/Appeal/etc. for the report you are working with.
I run into this issue ALL the time. It's particularly an issue for multi-year campaigns. I want to be able to select "All Time" for the canned reports.
