I have a client who would like to create a custom analytics dashboard specifically focused on grant reporting.
In creating the dashboard one of the few filters available is “date” but there’s no indication of what dates are being filtered? In their use case, when they create the grants dashboard and attempt to use the “date” filter at the top to filter by award date (for example) it doesn’t work because the filter must be using some other date. Like changing the date parameters in any way (last year, last week, yesterday) never changes the analytics charts at all. Because clearly whatever “date” is being filtered, is something completely unrelated to grants.
But what “date” IS being filtered? we’ve asked EveryAction/Bonterra support this question several times via a ticket/thread that goes back to June 2025… and never received an answer.
Ideally, I would love if Bonterra could relabel that date filter to clarify what it is, as the generic “date” has confused and frustrated my client (and I). Even though relabeling it probably won’t help my client build their custom grants analytics dashboard, it would help us understand the limitations and avoid clients wasting time reporting this as a bug.
