Dynamic dates - i.e. if less than today

[Anonymous]

Hi - I have a requirement in a marketing activitiy to say if the date entered into "Date Field A" = less than today, then do not run.

I can't see an obvious way to do this, as "in time frame" looks at criteria like today, this month etc, but I can't see how to make it always consider what is today, and then count backwards

Any ideas?

Thanks

Sorry probably didnt explain myself properly.

Steven - the criteria is effect is 'in future' rather than 'in past' - so like 'next 90 days' like salesforce has - is there a marketo alternative?

The drop down would be "in past" and you can enter "24 hours" as the value.  You can also enter "1 day" as the value.  You'll need to test the edge cases on the date to see how they behave

In past 24 hours?  Before {{system.date}}?
