+Filters can be used to define what items should make it into the resulting list of items. A filter configuration can look as follows:
 
 ```yml
 filters:
   - field: "status"
-    regex: "cancelled"
+    exp: "cancelled"
     match: false
   - field: "status"
-    regex: "delayed"
+    exp: ".*(?i)(delayed).*"
     match: false
+  - field: "date"
+    exp: "> now" # format: <|> now|YYYY-MM-ddTHH:mm
+    match: true
 ```
 
-The `field` key determines to which field the regular expression will be applied. `regex` defines the regular expression and `match` determines whether the item should be included or excluded on match. Note, that as soon as there is one match for a regular expression that has `match` set to **false** the respective item will be exlcuded from the results without looking at the other filters.

+The expression `exp` can be either a regular expression or a date comparison. Depending on the type of the respective `field` in the `fields` section of the configuration it has to be either one or the other. If the corresponding field is of type `date` the expression has to be a date comparison. For every other field type it has to be a regular expression.
