Expose date filter's start & end date inside beast mode

dp4ge · May 2023

The date range filter will always have a start and end date.

I would like Domo to expose that start date/end date inside a calculated field as variables.

My workaround is to have the same variable for fixed date ranges (MTD, YTD, etc)

This would not be the case if Domo exposed the date filter variables inside Beast Mode Editor (e.g. DATERANGE_START, DATERANGE_END)

I have a single table that some columns or calculations use one date field and other columns use another date field.
However domo only allows you to associate a single date field to the entire chart/table. This is extremely frustrating.

For example the red columns use TransactionDate but the green columns use InvoicePostedDate

My workaround is I lose the ability for a user to use the date filters altogether. I have to hardcode my date ranges (YTD, MTD, PriorYear, PriorMonth, etc) in beast mode and that is extremely time consuming and limiting as it doesn't allow the user to put custom date ranges.

Need solution to pass the Date range as below

To be able to pass the global date filter range values (selected) from Dashboard into the external date filters of Start and End dates without manual selection every time.
