Current date

Meaning: Is NOT converted to the current date.

Explanation: When using =t, the application determines the current date anew every day. =t is not visually converted into a date.

Example: On 23/01/2015, =t only shows datasets from 23/01/2015.
              On 24/01/2015, =t only shows datasets from 24/01/2015.

Current month

=m

Similar to the [t] function for entering the date, the abbreviation [m] can be used in the accounting period or in the service month.

Enter [m] to preallocate the actual valid accounting period or the service month.

Example: In the dashboard, a search area can be constructed over the last 6 booking periods as follows:

m1Next accounting period, next service month
m-1The last accounting period, last service month
>=m1Less than / equal to the next accounting period / service month
m-6:m6Last 6 accounting periods/service months up to next 6 accounting periods/service months.
