• Month — Rows are grouped by the month part of their values.
• Year — Rows are grouped by the year part of their values.
• Smart — Rows are combined into the following non-overlapping groups according to their date value as compared with today’s date: "Beyond Next Month", "Next Month", "Later this Month", "Three Weeks Away", "Two Weeks Away", "Next Week", "Today", "Tomorrow", "Yesterday", "Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday", "Last Week", "Two Weeks Ago", "Three Weeks Ago", "Earlier this Month", "Last Month", "Older".”
