Here is the situation

Search web security appliance data (index=network sourcetype=cisco_wsa_squid) for non-business
activity, i.e., usage values other than Business (usage!=Business) during the previous business week.

And here is query i got for it
index=network sourcetype=cisco_wsa_squid (usage!=Business)
earliest=-7d@w1 latest=@w6.

Could someone explain in latest why is it @w6 and not -7d@w6,  @w6  will not include current week's data ?

"@w6" aligns to the beginning of the previous Saturday (which is not in the current week!). Try "@w6+1w"
