@Inayath_khan correct answer to your question depends on what is your use case. If you want your input to show values as Q1, Q2... Current year Q3 and Q4 have not come. So ideally

(1) Either You should either Show, Current Quarter and Previous Quarter etc kind of information which keep on rolling as per current quarter.
(2) Or have first selection of year and then display the quarters which are valid as per current year quarters.

Also once you select a quarter do you want to pass on EPOCH time as earliest and latest filter or Quarter name directly to your SPL. This will depend on your data (EPOCH time should always work provided _time extraction is correct in your data).

Following the SPL that you can try for

1) Option 1:

| makeresults 
| fields - _time 
| eval Label="Current Quarter", TimeEarliest=relative_time(now(),"@q-1q"),TimeLatest=relative_time(now(),"@q") 
| append 
    [| makeresults 
    | fields - _time 
    | eval Label="1 Quarter Ago",TimeEarliest=relative_time(now(),"@q-2q"),TimeLatest=relative_time(now(),"@q-1q")
        ]
| append 
    [| makeresults 
    | fields - _time 
    | eval Label="2 Quarter Ago",TimeEarliest=relative_time(now(),"@q-3q"),TimeLatest=relative_time(now(),"@q-2q")
        ]
| append 
    [| makeresults 
    | fields - _time 
    | eval Label="3 Quarter Ago",TimeEarliest=relative_time(now(),"@q-4q"),TimeLatest=relative_time(now(),"@q-3q")
        ]

and Option 2)

| makeresults 
| fields - _time 
| eval Label="Q1 (prev year)", TimeEarliest=relative_time(now(),"-1y@y+0q"),TimeLatest=relative_time(now(),"-1y@y+1q-1s") 
| append 
    [| makeresults 
    | fields - _time 
    | eval Label="Q2 (prev year)",TimeEarliest=relative_time(now(),"-1y@y+1q"),TimeLatest=relative_time(now(),"-1y@y+2q-1s")
        ] 
| append 
    [| makeresults 
    | fields - _time 
    | eval Label="Q3 (prev year)",TimeEarliest=relative_time(now(),"-1y@y+2q"),TimeLatest=relative_time(now(),"-1y@y+3q-1s")
        ] 
| append 
    [| makeresults 
    | fields - _time 
    | eval Label="Q4 (prev year)",TimeEarliest=relative_time(now(),"-1y@y+3q"),TimeLatest=relative_time(now(),"-1y@y+4q-1s")
        ]
