[Koha] Problem constructing a report - WHERE dates?

[Nicole Engard]

You are right, you want to make it '2009-07-01' if you want the entire
month of June. Also a tip - you can do this :

WHERE type= 'issue' AND datetime BETWEEN '20091-06-01' AND '2009-07-01'

For examples of reports you might want to check out this page:
