New Reporting Options

A new report detailing system codes that are expiring soon or have already expired can now be generated. A new option has been added to the report filters to select users by profile. This provides a method to easily select a group of users rather than each user individually. Also it allows for simpler interaction event rule management, since if a profile is selected as the filter, the rule will automatically include a new user in the profile.
