Date-based conditions and filters

Date-based conditions and filters

Configure conditions with date 

Hi everyone! We are excited to announce that you can now compare and filter data with date-based conditions. This update lets you compare date fields in a document to a reference date and display a text or value if the conditions are met.



Filter records by date 

Use a conditional operator to filter records in your data source to match only specific criteria each time you run merge. 



Here are a few instances of filters by date which might be useful while your data source has a large amount of data:
  1.  Filter records before/after a specific date
  2.  Filter records between two dates. Click here to learn how.
  3.  Filter the mail merge records such that only records with a date that is within 45 days from today.
Please head to our help to learn more about date-based conditions. 
We'd love to hear your feedback. Drop us a comment here, or write to us at support@zohowriter.com to let us know what you think.
 
Happy merging!
