Hi GD team, Could you please confirm if applying the New Month-to-Date filter will address the following issue? Currently, I’m calculating Net Revenue using a headline metric in GoodData and applying the filter “This Month compared to Previous Period.” The comparison is slightly misleading because it compares revenue from the start of the current month to date (e.g., 1–10 August) with the entire previous month (e.g., all of July). Ideally, the comparison should be 1–10 August vs. 1–10 July. Could you confirm whether using the Month-to-Date filter with the “Compared to Previous Period” option will produce this behaviour? If the new MTD filter is not able to solve the above issue properly , can you let me me know by when can we expect a new filter that solves the above problem i.e. compares data from this month to date to the exact same period in previous month.

@Ismail Karafakioglu sharing the link of a demo visualisation . It doesn't have any data at this point since it a demo workspace but the filters work the same . Can you just clarify if the filters applied solves the above problem? https://gokenko.cloud.gooddata.com/analyze/#/fc6d101e73f4405d8c031894ed68a2c6/9bab590a-4f06-433c-b3b6-f35074d64090/edit

Hi Sameer, I tested on my end and "this month to date (MTD)" works as you expect. So it shows for today, 1st July till 13th July and 1st August till 13th of August. Once you populate it with data, please use the filter mentioned above and if you have further question, please write on this thread so we can follow up on that.

Thanks a lot @Ismail Karafakioglu
