SomanDavuluri — Tue, 15 Dec 2015 09:42:02 GMT

As shown in the image by date is blocked mannually at 15-dec-2015 to 15-dec-2015

i wana know can we move this automatically to 16-dec-2015 to 16-dec-2015 , 17-dec-2015 to 17-dec-2015. and so on instead of changing it mannually every day.

Hello Soman,

There have been a lot of questions on this general topic (selecting the most recent date value) so I have contacted the development team about it. They are working on this for a future release.

If you were not aware, the Now operator produces the current datetime value, so you can use DatePart(Now()) to get today's date. But this is not ideal if your data doesn't build every day. We would like to add a simple way to select the most recent date value (as well as the oldest value.)

Thanks,

Sam
