Notes

This function will create a few global variables, including the two below which specify the filenames for CSV or HTML reports. by default, the filename is based on the Title parameter and the time the report was initialized.

 $Global:HTMLReportFilename=".\$Title - $StartDate.html"
 $Global:CSVReportFilename=".\$Title - $StartDate.csv"

Once the report has been initialized, these variables can be updated to change the filenames before Export-UcmCsvReport or Export-UcmHtmlReport are called.
