I'm trying to dynamically filter my data as per below. This workflow need to run (automatically) every month. Would really appreciate if someone can attach a sample workflow.. Thanks.

[Request 2] column = Filter Current Month (Apr) and Last Month (Mar) dates

Then from [Request 1] column = Filter only previous months (Mar and prior - exclude current month dates)

 

Data Set:

Hi @Muhammad 

 

Filter Tool with this formula:

ToNumber(DateTimeFormat([Request 2], "%y%m"))
>= ToNumber(DateTimeFormat(DateTimeNow(), "%y%m")) - 1 AND
ToNumber(DateTimeFormat([Request 1], "%y%m"))
<= ToNumber(DateTimeFormat(DateTimeNow(), "%y%m")) - 1

 

Cheers,
