Using the Date Filter

Use date-based filters in Productive to efficiently find data by selecting predefined periods or custom date ranges.

Updated over 3 months ago

When searching for data in Productive, you can apply various date-based filters to help you quickly find what you need.

These filters allow you to narrow down your search to specific time-based events such as:

  • Date Created

  • Due Date

  • Expected Closure Date

  • Expected Delivery Date

The available filters will vary depending on the object in question. For example, a deal may have a "Won Date," while a task cannot.

Types of Date Filters

Productive offers three main ways to filter data based on dates:

Dynamic Date Filters

These filters allow you to select predefined periods like days, weeks, months, years, and quarters.

For instance, selecting "This week" will automatically adjust to the current week every time you view the data, eliminating the need for manual updates.

Classic Date Range Filter

This option allows you to specify a custom date range by either selecting dates from a calendar or manually entering the start and end dates. The current date is highlighted in blue for easy reference.

Dynamic Day Range Filter

This filter lets you choose from a range of past or future days, such as the last 7, 14, 30, 90, or 365 days. This is useful for dynamically tracking recent or upcoming activity.

Saving Views with Date Filters

You can save your preferred view with these date filters applied. Productive will automatically adjust the range based on the current date.

For example, if you save a view showing tasks due this week, it will always display tasks due in the current week, regardless of when you access it.

These dynamic filters ensure that you always have the most relevant data at your fingertips, whether you're viewing tasks, budgets, deals, or projects.
