You can create some permanent custom date ranges that support your needs:

 

 

 

You will probably want to set up 4 such Date Ranges, your custom 4 quarters for this year, and last year (rolling) so that you can re-use these for multiple reports.

Hi Jennifer,

thank you. But there is probably no way to hard-code this into the AA UI, correct?

Customising the calendar doesn't change the quarter options, just the start-of-week/year options. https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/analytics/admin/admin-tools/custom-calendar.html?lang=en

Quarters DO change their definitions when you change your Suite's Calendar options!
