My goal is to:

1. Have the current date automatically appear at the top of the app pag

2. Then “Group by” Today’s Date on the List Collection in the “BackOffice”

Any input would be great!

Thanks!

You could do that with a Math Column and replace with the ‘Now’ value. Then display that Math Column.

I think what you want to do is filter your collection where your ‘Date Column’ → is within → Today
