In the current release, system shows only two filters for Document Type i.e. Invoice and Credit Memo in the monitoring invoices report. 

The Monitoring Invoices report is based on Supplier Invoice Item Details data source. This data source shows all invoices per supplier, product, or account assignment. The accountant can check the invoice value, the price, the quantity, and the status of the invoice (for example, if it was posted or in approval or in error correction) for the specified time period.

The document type Invoice Cancellation is stored in the header section of the invoice. However the monitoring invoices report is based on Supplier Invoice Item Details data source. we see that characteristic could be improved here to indicate the right document type for cancellation invoices. Hence the idea of characteristic enhancement can be take as an new improvement. You can post the idea in influence forum -https://influence.sap.com/sap/ino/#/campaign/886.
