Understanding Weeks and Date Ranges in KPI Trend Visualizations
Last updated: July 23, 2025
When using date range filters with KPI Trend visualizations, you may notice that the displayed date range sometimes differs from your selected dates. This is due to the KPI Trend's week-alignment logic.
How Week Alignment Works
KPI Trend visualizations automatically align to full weeks, with Monday as the start of each week. This means:
If you select a start date that falls mid-week (e.g., a Sunday), the visualization will automatically adjust backwards to the previous Monday
If you select a Monday as your start date, the visualization will use that exact date
Example
If you select a date range of June 1, 2025 (a Sunday) to June 30, 2025:
The KPI Trend will visually adjust the start date to May 26, 2025 (the previous Monday). However, only data starting from June 1, 2025 will be included in the calculation.
The end date will remain June 30, 2025
Tip: To avoid automatic date adjustment, you can select a Monday as your start date when setting up date range filters for KPI Trends.
