Are your results restricted in any other way?

@Ben Goligowski I understand that it works, but what's the reason for using that formula instead of the transaction date directly?

@David B sorry for the delay in responding. i wanted the users to be able to filter based on transaction date and if i set the date here to on or after X date then the filter option would only show 1 date selection for them to choose a different on or after, but the users wanted to choose a months range or something different. to accommodate that i did it this way. this way it limits the results, increasing performance, without impacting the filter

That's clever, thanks for sharing
