: I think you'd have to get creative with function queries. The trick is
You don't have to get *very* creative...
: > I want to retrieve all docs or records from solr where updateDate >=
: > appliedDate OR appliedDate == null
Pretty sure all you need is...
fq={!frange l=0}ms(updateDate,appliedDate)
...the ms function will subtract the dates and return the number of
seconds they differ -- so if the number is greater then of equal to 0
appliedDate comes after updateDate. The only tricky part is the "there is
no appliedDate" part of your question -- but i still think thta will work,
becuase i'm pretty sure in the context of ms() a doc w/o an appliedDate
will get an effective appliedDate of "0" -- test to be sure.
