[Eril-l] Counter JR1 and JR5

Good afternoon!  I have a quick question about JR1 and JR5 reports.  I am looking at JR1 and JR5 reports for the same time period (say Jan.-June 2016).  If title X on the JR1 report has 25 total uses, then it seems that title X should have 25 total uses on the JR5 report too.


The JR1 report tells me which month articles were accessed (5 uses in Jan, 5 uses in Feb., etc) and the JR5 tells me that the articles come from which year of publication (5 uses from YOP 2016, 5 uses from YOP 2015, etc.)  They two reports are measuring different things, but they should agree on the the same number of uses.  RIght?


I am comparing two reports and seeing 16 uses in the JR5 report but 30 uses in the JR1 report, and it's not making sense to me.  Can someone help me understand?

Thanks,

Donna
