> Hi @stolzj19, There are a few ways to handle…here’s one: [41%20PM] Because date data types are actually always date AND time we need to select the entire range of time. In the \< comparison we set the current date/time to a day forward and then bring it all back to zero’s on the time – this ensures we get everything including the last millisecond of that date. For the \>= we are going back to the first millisecond of the current day.
