Filtering Specific Dates and Times

Usually I only need to filter by just a date using the Date Filter; and i have an Analytic App built to grab a single date that i specify for a productivity purpose. Recently though i have been running into an issue where the productivity that i am running will carryover past "00:00:00" making it the next day. At the times i am running it i am unable to select both days, due to there being productivity occuring that is for the following day. I was wondering how i can tie in a filter to specify a Date and Time to run; so instead of it filtering just [Date] = "2016-12-06" i need it to be [Date/Time] > "2016-12-06 00:00:00" AND [Date/Time] < "2016-12-07 03:00:00". I was able to do this with a filter tool just didnt know how to tie it into the analytic app since it currently uses the Date Interface tool. It would be awesome if there was a tool like the Date Filter that was a Time Filter or one that was both. The other problem i run into with changing the date if it is less than a certain time to the previous date is i have several other tools calculating the exact times in seconds between transactions times, so when it is switched to previous dates those times are all off.
