The Advanced Reports widget on the Home Page lets you view leads in one or more lead views. 

A lead view displays leads filtered based on the criteria you defined for that view.

Here is a screenshot of the available lead filters:

 

 

The lead views help you to manage your leads more efficiently as you don't have to re-enter the search filters every time you need to see a specific group of leads. 

 

For example, a view can be used to display leads that were both created in the current month AND belong to a selected user group.

Another view can be set up to display leads that belong to a specific campaign AND were updated in the current week AND are saved in a selected status state. 

 

The possibilities for filtering the leads are endless, enabling you to easily generate reports that match your reporting needs. 

 

The Advanced Reports widget also allow you to create scheduled reports that are sent to selected users by email on a pre-determined schedule.
