Date Picker Selection

I am using the date picker in the following query to pick the date in a table. The table only has business dates so I would to modify the selection to pick the next previous date which is available. For example, if the user selects 1/1/24 it would look back and see the closest date prior to 1/1/24 is 12/29/23 and would return that value. Is there a way to implement this?

 

Sum({<[DS_POST_DT]={"$(=Min(REPORT_DATE_KEY))"}>} DS_Prior_BALANCE)

@HMUTUAL01 If you want prior date from selection, You can try this.

Sum({<[DS_POST_DT]={"$(=Date(Max(DS_POST_DT)-1)"}>} DS_Prior_BALANCE)

@Anil_Babu_Samineni I tried this but nothing was returned. Jochem mentioned "when Date format is ok" so I am not sure if that if that is the issue. The first column is the original without the code and the second is the one where I applied the logic provided.

just specify the date format to match the date format of your field as below

 

Sum({<[DS_POST_DT]={"$(=Date(Max(DS_POST_DT)-1,'YYYY-MM-DD')"}>} DS_Prior_BALANCE)
