It is best to explain the time constraint limitation in the introduction to provide context for the study and set expectations for the reader. This will also allow the researcher to address the potential impact of the time constraint on the study's findings and conclusions. Ignoring the limitation or presenting it in the appendix would not be helpful, while mentioning it in the executive summary or conclusion may not provide enough detail or context for the reader.
