Create a filtered view for a list to show the last 30 days

 

In this example, I have a list of product update documents with a date column titled Update. When I view this list, I only want to see updates for the last 30 days. I will accomplish this by creating a view that uses the date field titled Update as a filter to only show the most recent 30 days of activity.

Here is what the list looks like before creating this filtered view.

 

Creating the View

  1. From the list screen, choose Settings, Create View.
  2. Choose the view format, for this example I have selected Standard View.
  3. Enter a name, check the box to make this the default view if desired, select the columns to display and sort order.
  4. In the Filter section, for "Show the items when column" choose the column containing the dates.
  5. From the operator list, select "Is less than or equal to"
  6. In the value box type [today]
  7. Select "And"
  8. For "When column" again select the column containing the dates.
  9. From the operator list, select "Is greater than or equal to"
  10. In the value box type [today]-30. The filter section should look like the example pictured:

11.  Select any other options for the view, and then choose OK.

 

This is how the list looks with the new view applied:
