    Hi,

    You can achieve this with simple filtering modules. First module would be selection filter to select if months or quarters should be shown.

    Second module would be a calculation module where show months and show quarters are calculated on separate line items. Then these two line items are calculated together with Or statement. This final boolean value can be then used to filter wanted views.

    When creating filtering modules you probably want to include user list especially if there is more than one user for the view. When user list is included then each user can control their own filters.

    Hi @jagadishdash,

    Please note that according to the best practices filters should be always one boolean not multiple booleans as multiple booleans is worse for the performance.

    Do you want just Months or months with FY like (jan -Dec or FY22) in months?
