Beast Mode Calculation for cutting off the last months

Hi all,

I have a question on how to create basically a Beast mode tyle filter that will cut off the last 3 months.

my datecolumn is in the MM/DD/YYYY format (4/26/2018). So I would like to take the most recently closed month (end of March) and subtract it by 3 months to only report data up to 12/31/2017.

Thanks for your help.

You could try this. Using this field as a filter and select 'true' to show only dates you are looking for.

case

when year(`datecolumn`) <= year(date_sub(curdate(), interval 4 month)) and month(`datecolumn`) <= month(date_sub(curdate(), interval 4 month))

then 'true'

else 'false'

end

unknown

Thanks for the response, I got a syntax error though. Maybe it needs added parantheses somewhere?

I realized it's missing "interval" and it was able to validate.

Thanks!!

Sorry about that. Good catch
