&lt;p&gt;&lt;span id="mce_6_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_8_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;Apologies for the late reply. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;We actually have a Lead Reports screen. &amp;nbsp;You can use this to get a report of your leads. &amp;nbsp;It can be found in Leads tab &amp;gt; Lead Reports.&lt;span id="mce_7_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;span id="mce_10_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;Unfortunately, there isn&amp;#39;t a filter for when the lead was created. You can however customize the screen to add that yourself. The screen you&amp;#39;ll need to copy&amp;nbsp;and customize is the CRM_LeadReportsV2.&lt;span id="mce_12_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt; &amp;nbsp;You can take a look at the filters in place and use those as a guide to create yours.&lt;span id="mce_29_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span id="mce_27_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_30_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;The actions for filtering are found on the Generate Report button.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;T&lt;span id="mce_28_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;he field you&amp;#39;ll probably want to filter for is &amp;quot;CreatedDate&amp;quot;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;span id="mce_14_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;If you&amp;#39;re unfamiliar with customization, you can go over our &lt;span id="mce_15_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.methodintegration.com/method/kb.aspx?folder=MethodCRM&amp;amp;article=Method-V1&amp;amp;id=369#main11" target="_blank"&gt;Customization Webinars&lt;span id="mce_15_end" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;span id="mce_26_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_13_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_25_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span id="mce_19_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;You can also create your own report template or modify the existing ones. &amp;nbsp;I&amp;#39;d start by going through the &lt;span id="mce_20_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.methodintegration.com/method/kb.aspx?folder=methodcrm&amp;amp;article=Report-Designer&amp;amp;id=271" target="_blank"&gt;Report Designer tutorials&lt;span id="mce_20_end" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; first to get a grasp of the Report Designer.&lt;span id="mce_24_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_31_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt; You also have the option of createding your own button and generating your own report if you desire.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;Another completely different way to go about this would be to have a grid that lists your Leads. &amp;nbsp;You can then use the grid to filter for a date range based on the &amp;quot;Created Date&amp;quot; I mentioned earlier and the Next Activity field. &amp;nbsp;We then have a Export Grid to Excel action that you can use to get a speadsheet of your leads. &amp;nbsp;This is a bit of a messier way to do it, but also perhaps a simpler way.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_13_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_19_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_24_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Hope this helps,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
