Filtering Dates - Compare this month VS last month

Hi Community,

Im trying to setup a table filter to make it easy for my client to view billings for “this month” vs “last month”

For some reason there are “this month” transactions within the “last month” filter…

Can anyone see what Im doing wrong here?

The filter for “is during the previous” includes everything that’s “during” the previous, meaning, including current. Like saying “During this past month” would not mean the same as “Last Month.”

Maybe try the filter: “is before the previous.” This filter sees the present as “0” and last month as 1.

If you entered “is before the previous 1 month” it would look for anything older than August (ie. July and back), so entering is before the previous 0 months will look for anything starting last month.

One day maybe we’ll find a way to visually demonstrate what each filter does especially with is during, is before, is after etc… This certainly requires a better visual guide.

(For future reference this is written in September).

OK awesome - using that logic I think I have got it:

Edit - tested and working.

I came to this topic and found out that is not possible to use “-2” anymore.

So the walkthrough for this kind of filter should be that one below:
