Date filter not working

Hi,

I'm using Yellowfin 7.35.17. Datasource is a Filemaker 17 database.

I'm having trouble trying to apply a filter on a date column.

I've created a test report to play around with, which only contains one column. The SQL produced by the report is as follows:

SELECT DISTINCT 
"INVOICES"."CREATION DATE" 
FROM "INVOICES" 
WHERE ( 
"INVOICES"."CREATION DATE" <= '2023-04-01' 
)
The results for this shows me all the records from today 1/05/2023 down to 14/12/2022. If I change the operator to '>', I get no results.

The dates appear in Filemaker in the format d/MMM/yyyy. This is also the format of the system clock on the Yellowfin server and on the client machine.

I am perplexed as to what is going on.

Hello Aaron,

Thank you for reaching out to the Yellowfin Support Team.

Just letting you know that, version 7 is no longer supported in any way. With the most recent version 9.8.2, I replicated the problem but couldn't find an error.

Everything is working as expected. To prevent any further problems, if at all feasible, could you please upgrade your version?

Hi Yamini,

Unfortunately it is not currently feasible to upgrade our Yellowfin. But thanks for trying to replicate it.

I was wondering if there was something obvious that I was missing.

All the best,

Aaron
