Month & Year functions

Roadmap Feature Requests

Porting from Slack.
Use case:

  1. show current month on screen.
  2. Show monthly sales
  3. Show yearly sales
    if we can have month(date) and year(date) functions, we can use it in our mathematical formulas for various purposes.

Building apps for business people, they tend to like to know whats happening the in the current financial period. Right now, we can only pick a how many days ago we want to show the data for, rather than from a certain date.

Would be great to have in the Date/Time value ā€˜Current Monthā€™, ā€˜Current Yearā€™

I wish features like this were higher priority. This is basic functionality and it is desperately needed. Makes using Adalo for building business apps a real chore (still worth it fwiw..) BUT, seriously - not everyone is out here building toy apps and cloning already existing or single-function apps (like uber, airBnB, schedulers, etc.) for micro-market useā€¦ Some of us are trying to build robust, multi-faceted tools to manage businesses. Still love Adalo though, donā€™t get me wrong guys. Itā€™s just annoying to see features coming down the pipe like ā€œfilter by proximityā€, when You literally still canā€™t filter by ā€œlast Monthā€ or ā€œcurrent year-to-dateā€ā€¦ And, Iā€™m not actually a ā€œrealā€ developer, but man it seems like it would be WAY easier and faster to enrich Adalo with all of these random sorely missed basic functionalities than something as robust as location-based filtering and sorting. Priorities??

Tyler Tilton: I agree with everything you wrote!

Also the management of before and after times are limiting, I donā€™t understand why it is not possible to be able to choose oneā€™s range through simple summation formulasā€¦

Davide Soncin: Yes, and the fact that basic functionality and performance is foregone in favor of dumb stuff like ā€œai database table creationā€ (who actually needs that??) Is why I abandoned my 2k hrs+ of work in Adalo 8 months ago to build on a more robust and sensible platform. And let me tell you what - breath of fresh air, 100% worth it, laugh at myself for throwing so much good money after bad trying to make Adalo ā€œworkā€ for all those many monthsā€¦

Tyler Tilton: I understand very well. I also spent a lot of time on Adalo, on the one hand I really like his simplicity, on the other hand it lacks obvious things. Responsive management in my opinion is unsuccessful, uncontrollable and malfunctioning. To know, which platform are you currently focussed on?

Without these features, creating any chart or graph is impossible. Meaning we canā€™t build dashboard or any summary element.
