How does the Use Dates filter work?
Answer
If “Use dates” checkbox is unchecked then tasks on Timesheet View will not be filtered by date (options From, To, Filter are ignored);

If “Use dates” checkbox is checked and “Show current” option is selected then such tasks will be displayed on view:
- Tasks without dates;
- Tasks with dates that intersect From-To interval.
For example, From = 2010-09-01, To = 2010-09-10. Task with dates 2010-08-01 – 2010-08-15 will NOT be displayed on view , task with dates 2010-08-15 – 2010-09-05 will be displayed on view, task with dates 2010-09-02 – 2010-10-01 will be displayed on view, task with dates 2010-08-15 – 2010-10-01 will be displayed on view, task with dates 2010-10-01 – 2010-10-15 will NOT be displayed on view.

If “Use dates” checkbox is checked and “Show current/future” option is selected then such tasks will be displayed on view:
- Tasks without dates;
- Tasks with dates that intersect From-To interval;
- Tasks that start after From-To interval.
For example, From = 2010-09-01, To = 2010-09-10. Task with dates 2010-08-01 – 2010-08-15 will NOT be displayed on view , task with dates 2010-08-15 – 2010-09-05 will be displayed on view, task with dates 2010-09-02 – 2010-10-01 will be displayed on view, task with dates 2010-08-15 – 2010-10-01 will be displayed on view, task with dates 2010-10-01 – 2010-10-15 will be displayed on view.

If From and To Date fields are empty. This means that From-To interval is not defined (empty) and there are no tasks that intersect empty From-To interval.
- If "Show Current" selected you see only tasks without dates.
- If “Show current/future” option is selected then all tasks with dates are treated as future tasks with respect to empty From-To interval. Because of this you see all tasks in this case.
