I was working with this years edition of our Chrstmas QR gift labels this weekend.
And I wanted the datetime variable “tid” to set the time when the QR page should show the to/from/greeting.
(In many households in Sweden, the Christmas gifts may not be open until after the traditional Disney TV program “From All of Us to All of You” (“Kalle Anka och hans vänner önskar God Jul”) that ends approximately 16.00.
So, anyone who wonders about who is about to get the big Christmas gift is greeted with a “try again later” message when scanning the QR code 
But, the Rule setting is not super-intuative:
Since the variable is fixed and the “current time” is a moving target, the correct setting is Before, not After…
So if “tid”=2024-12-24:16.00 and the current time is 2024-12-24:15.00, then “tid” is not Before the current time and the “try again later” is displayed.
And, when the current time is 2024-12-24:16.01, the “tid” is Before and the Merry Cristmas message is displayed!
Makes sense when I think about it but it was far from obvious…
