Dashboard show trend, span snap to nearest data

[Nico20]

Good day

The following problem: I load data into Splunk once a week. However, not always on the same day.

I now want to show a trend to last week on a dashboard, but the span option must fit to the day. Is there a way that the span option automatically adjusts to the next date where there is data?

Or do you have another suggestion how I can solve the problem?

Currently, if the span does not fit exactly, I have an increase of 100%.

My current search query is very basic:
index=test CVSS_v3_Severity=$severity_tok$ Operating_System_Generation=$os_dd_tok$ | dedup CVE | timechart span=7d count

Thanks in advance and best regards

Nico

It is not clear why span=7d is not working for you. Please can you provide example events which demonstrate the issue (anonymised of course)?
