Hi Rene,

I don’t think there is a generic way, but you can use something like
this for your agenda view:

  ("y"
   "Next year's appointments"
   tags (format "TIMESTAMP>=\"<%s-09-01>\""  (+ 1 (calendar-extract-year 
(calendar-current-date)

best, Erik

Actually, I want the "y" custom command to get me the tasks scheduled past a
coming date.  How to define a date like "the next september 1st"?

Is it possible to do so?

[O] date next year

2013-12-20 Thread Rene 
How can I set org-agenda-custom-commands so that I can get the tasks past a
date in the coming year?

Suppose I'm interested in things past next september.  This

("y"
 "Next year's appointments"
 tags "TIMESTAMP>=\"<2014-09-01>\"")

works alright as long as we are before that date but won't work anymore next
october.  I would have to modify my org config file each year.

Is there a generic way to indicate "next year"?

Thanks.
