Wildcard Filter for Projects sitting for 3 days after Entry Date

Hello!

 

I am stumped. I need to create a wildcard filter for projects sitting 3 days after entry date. I do not want to include the entry date within my filter, but it continues to populate. 

 

What am I doing wrong? 

 

 

Thank you!

JM

Hi @jenniferma10 

 

I'm not 100% sure this is what you are asking for, but here is an example of a filter for projects in Planning status entered more than 3 days ago. 

 

 

If this helps, please consider marking as correct.

Hello JM,

have you tried the "Between" operator, instead "Equal (Case Sensitive)"?

Also, note that $$NOW is equal to the current date and time. You may want to use $$TODAY instead, something along the lines of Between $$TODAY-4d and $$TODAY-3d.

I hope this helps,

Tibor

This makes more sense; however, it's still picking up a project that was submitted yesterday?

 

I even tried $$TODAY+3d?

Can you be more specific about what exactly you're after? Your initial question was a little ambiguous.

Here's how I understand these wildcards:

  • Projects created in the past 72 hours: BETWEEN $$NOW-3d AND $$NOW
  • Projects created any time in the previous 3 days (but not today): BETWEEN $$TODAY-3d AND $$TODAY
  • Projects created on the day 3 days ago (e.g. running the report any time on Friday would give you projects created between 00:00-24:00 on Tuesday): BETWEEN $$TODAY-3d AND $$TODAY-2d
