Draft: Re-publish date handling to new handbook.
Why is this change being made?
I would like to re-add the date handling tips and tricks that I have developed to the handbook so that people have options for:
- Creating date axes that adjust with date granularities
- Creating dynamic filters that adjust with date granularities
- Using a Report Date table joined onto the data model that allows for leveraging the dim_date table for the report date to filter and organize data.
- Using time saving calculations to improve the UI
