Find a date range or part of it in another date range

Kausar

I am new to Alteryx and am stuck on this. How do I check if a date range or part of it fall within another date range? All the discussions I have seen are trying to find a single date within a date range.

 

Below example is my problem - I am trying to find which date range in 2022 falls within the input date range.

Hi @Kausar 

 

The solution can be derived with the following steps.

 

1. Change the dates to Alteryx format

2. Generate rows for all days in between

3. Filter if its range between year 2022

4. Then format to display the result via Summarize tool
