I have a index-2019 which has two date field, and they are different date/time then each other.

I have a requirement to use both date for different graph

is it possible to create two different index pattern with two separate "time filter field"

index-2019 is name of the index

index patter I have is index-\* ( with completed(date format) as time filter field)

I have another date field in this called submitted. and I want to use that as well.

what is best way to achieve this?
