I was trying to compare the data one day before to the current one. I used the command that I used before, but it seems that it could not be recognized as the valid one.

That looks like a very weird issue. Could you please copy and paste the command here, (like enter the input box, press Cmd/Ctrl + A to really select all text inside that input box, and then copy it here). So that we can check, that there are no invisible/hidden invalid charaters inside that expression.
