A duration of one hour starts on the hour but also includes whatever time has
passed in the current hour. For example, if you schedule your report at 3:18 p.m.,
the report will measure from 2 p.m. to 3:18 p.m.
Durations of eight hours look back eight hours from the beginning of the current
hour but also include whatever time has passed in the current hour. Durations of
one day look back 24 hours from the beginning of the current hour. Durations of
one week or one month look back from the previous midnight.
