When using ArcGIS Dashboards, you can filter an indicator by a date field by a period of time (i.e. Today, This Month, This Year, etc.). In MapViewer or when creating a view layer in Enterprise you can only filter by a value, or filter by "within the last" X amount of time. However this is obviously a different way of filtering if you filter by "within the last month" versus filtering by "this month".
We are trying to filter data in a dashboard on the indicators and the map in the same way using the date field and currently there is no good way of doing this. Filter capabilities should be consistent across all apps/platforms in Enterprise and other Esri products. Otherwise things are disconnected, inconsistent, and applications created for end users appear to be less than a professional-grade.
