Count of this week and of last week

I am trying to get a count of invoices for today and this same day last week.

=count(Invoice) for Today()

=count(Invoice) for Today()-7

Suggestions?

Have you tried this?

Count({<Date = {"$(=Date(Today()))"}>} Invoice)

and for Today - 7

Count({<Date = {"$(=Date(Today()-7))"}>} Invoice)

returns full 2 years of date.  count should be 9

Count({<INVOICE_DT = {"$(=Date(Today()))"}>}OB_VOUCHER_ID)

Can you try this

Count({<INVOICE_DT = {"$(=Date(Today(), 'YYYY-MM-DD'))"}>}OB_VOUCHER_ID)

it is ignoring everything and just showing the total count .

Count({<INVOICE_DT = {"$(=Date(Today(), 'YYYY-MM-DD'))"}>}OB_VOUCHER_ID)

Very odd.  I'd prefer an error 😜

This works in the backend.

LOAD
VOUCHER_ID AS Last_Week
, date(today()-7, 'yyyy-MM-dd') AS LDate
FROM [lib://QVD Files/PeopleSoft/AP_MANAGE_ONBASE.qvd](qvd)
where INVOICE_DT = date(today()-7, 'yyyy-MM-dd')
