Can we create a PoP comparison card based on whatever time date range is selected in Domo?
They have a period over period card. I don't know that they could tailor to the specifics we would each desire. When you get used to making calculations, you can create formulas for current period and past. Complications - different companies and people celebrate different holidays. And Sunday through Saturday business days don't match. I'm currently doing a card that needs full weeks. So I create a formula to find the first Sunday after to the earliest date, and the last Saturday prior to the most recent date. Things like that would differ from card to card.
I will give a couple examples here to make it easier to understand:
Basically it is a previous period to date concept, but having random dates for both start and end dates make it complicated.
Also since the selection of date range has no specific time frame, I am not sure how to attempt the calculation for this.
I know this isn't exactly what you're looking for, but take a look here at 19:04 to get started thinking about how to use Variables to accomplish this. I have used this in the past and it has functioned well.
I think you can accomplish this with variables, but setting the period and previous period to be dynamic might be challenging.
