Smart list filter on anniversary date = yesterday

Hi there.  I am having a mental block (grrrr!).

I want to have a smartlist that includes records where a certain date is YESTERDAY (or for that matter {{System.date}} - 1)

I can't use in past 1 day, because that ends up including records where the anniversary date field is today.

What dumb thing am I forgetting today ??

Regards

Jo

All,

I found the answer... it is to use the 'in timeframe' option and set the value to 'yesterday'.

Cheers

Just keep (maybe in the deep back of your mind, in this particular case) that dates, in reality, have timezones. And people in Marketo have Person Timezones, too. But you're going to be getting the "instance yesterday" as opposed to the "person yesterday".  Test a bit and you'll see what I mean.

Sanford,

Yep well aware of that.

The next part of the issue is how to act on an anniversary exactly x days in the future.

Cheers
