For a relative date filter, the default anchor is _________________

  1. The current time
  2. Today's date
  3. The target date
  4. The date we specify

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Relative date filters dynamically update to show a time period relative to when you open the view, such as the current week, the year to date, or the past 10 days. Relative date filters make it easy to create views that always show the most recent data.

Step 1: Drag a date field to the filter shelf
Right-click (control-click on Mac) and drag a date field from the Data window to the Filters shelf. In the Filter Field dialog box, click Relative Date, and then click Next.



Step 2: Select a time unit
In the Filter dialog box, click Relative dates, and then select the unit of time for the filter. For example, to show only the three most recent weeks, select Weeks.



Here, you can clearly see that the default date is TODAY
