This filter allows you to select a granularity of date parts to filter on, such as year, month, day, etc.

Each part can be set to blank to show all values; 'now' to filter for the current value of that part, or a specific value.

An adjustment field is provided that will adjust the selected filter value by something like '+90 days' or '-1 month';
