1. Select the sessions: Choose 1 or more sessions or a date range.
2. Pick report sections: Include summary, category breakdown, hourly pattern and notes.
3. Add context: Enter the location, counter names and weather or event notes.
4. Export the report: Download as PDF or print it.

Add the counts to get a total. Divide the total by the time to get a rate. Use the same time unit for each result.

Example: A 6-hour session counts 1,440 visitors, with 390 in the busiest hour. Average rate = 240 per hour. Peak share = 27.1%.
