Geoff,  thank you!!

It was the period duration that got me - I misinterpreted its meaning.  Changing to One Month did the trick.

Thanks again!

See attached - hope this helps.

Period Duration granularity is Weekly / Fortnightly / Monthly / 
Quarterly / Half Yearly / Annually.

You can also set specific Start and End dates.
