number of open tickets on a date in the past?

[Nari Man]

Is there a way to search for how many tickets were in unresolved state (basically open) on a certain date in the past?

Thanks

status was in( "In Progress","Open") during("start Date","end Date")

Lots of examples on that page, and lots of questions alreayd answered in these forums.

this is not working anymore - I closed a ticket today, wich was in progress last week, and it is no longer shown in my filter.

Use the WAS operator.

For example:

resolution WAS unresolved DURING ("2010/01/01","2011/01/01")

Or

status WAS Open DURING ("2010/01/01","2011/01/01")

Sorry, I know this is old, but I'm also interested in this. Is there a way to do this?

I'm basically looking for a graph to show how many open tickets there have been across days/weeks.

Thank you.
