    Hi Anonymous 

     

    Do you have a Year column in your table and you are using the Year column to filter rows in years 2023,2022 and 2021? If so, you can first filter rows by Year column to select rows greater than or equal to 2021. You will get an M code generated in the formula bar. Then replace 2021 with Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow()) - 2. This will return the year value based on your system datetime dynamically.
