Using dates in bookmarks

If you save a bookmark that refers to the current date (which would be equivalent to the TODAY() function in PQL), the actual value of the date you save it is used. For example, if you save the bookmark on January 31, 2024, that date is locked into the logic permanently.

To create a bookmark that automatically updates with the current value of today each time it is used, we recommend that you create a dropdown with PQL such as this:

CASE WHEN PU_LAST ( "VBAK" , ROUND_DAY ( "VBKD"."FKDAT" ) ) <= TODAY() THEN 'Billing Date in the past/today' ELSE 'Billing Date in the future' END

The TODAY() function will be evaluated each time you use the dropdown and will always represent the actual calendar date.
