Interacting with dates in the rules engine can be a bit confusing; if we add a timeline-based graphical representation of the filter, it would be much easier to properly setup rules.

This would be great- I constantly struggle with wrapping my head around what accounts will be flagged from the rule I am trying to create. A visual representation of the timespan would definitely be a huge help.

Agreed! The only way I can understand it is physically drawing a picture and keeping it on a sticky note on my desk (see attached... I hope it's correct

). Hopefully there's a better graphical representation of that OR they can reword the rule engine filters...
