@takbb I have a question regarding the flow variable.
Please check the attached flow
Before I get to your question:
In general tagging specific people right in your first post can be observed as unecessarily pushy. E.g. takkb is not part of KNIME first level support team or whatever, but a community member who volunteers his time to help.
To your question:
They way you have build your flow it ensures that the Create Date&Time Range nodes is re-executed.
Without the flow variable connection from table creator to Create Date and Time range, say if you accidentally only reset the table creator node, the Date and TIme range node would still be on green and when you then execute the workflow it may work with the wrong date.
So in this case you use the flow variable connection to control the execution order of your flow so that it is ensured you always work with the right date.
