Filter Data - Greater than 4 months

JDong

Hi All,

 

I have a date field with follow format:

 

Date
2021-04-22 00:00:00

2021-06-22 00:00:00

2021-07-22 00:00:00

2021-08-22 00:00:00

2021-12-22 00:00:00

 

In my data set I want to filter all records if the month is 4 months greater than current system month.

 

So since we are in April...data from August should be filtered.

 

Thanks.

Hi Aaron,

 

It has also filtered also predated records ?

 

I see very less records now.

 

It should from entire dataset filter only those records that are greater than 4 months. 

 

Thanks

Try changing the filter from '='  to '<'

I seeit is not picking the NULL and ' ' date values. @Aaron_Harter  @jeff_reynolds 

 

How can I fix this ?

Not quite sure what your data actually looks like, but if your data has null / empty values that you want passed through the filter, you could add something like this to the logic:

. Now only data that is within the four months OR has no value will go through.
