Scheduled Reports - include report date range
Scheduled Reports would be extra awesome if we could control the range for the report. For example, for sales detail, what range is the report going to report on?

I agree, scheduled reports are kind of useless if you can't control the date ranges. This would be a much appreciated feature so we can automatically email sales tax reports to our accountants.
I would eventually like to use this for automatically sending time clock hours to HR as well.

My other use for this would be to automatically run my payroll reports. But repairshopr is already missing the date range I use for payroll. So I have to use the custom date range each time I run reports.
I run my payroll every other Thursday, and I run reports for the two complete weeks before that. Each report I run for payroll would include Sunday through Saturday for both weeks on the payroll. (so my reports don't include the Sunday through Thursday of the week I'm running the report) So if you could add an auto-date-range option for people like me as well, that would be appreciated. I'm sure it's not the easiest thing to do though.

I 100% agree. This is needed.
Like for sales tax, I want it to auto e-mail to my accountant every month.
I would like for it to run on the first of the month (or late at night on the last day of the month), and I need it to give me data for the entire previous month.Right now, my only option is to run it on the last day of the month (or toward the end of the month) because it grabs data from the month it runs in.
Plus, it seems to run in the morning. So it might not grab all of the data from the month if I run it on the last day of the month. It might leave off the sales for the last day of the month if it runs too early.
(I think I could maybe get it to run on the last day of the month that is... Or would it just run on the 30th, and not the 31st should a month have one? And what about February? I don't know. Haven't tested it yet.)
