How can I set up an alert triggered by daily metrics from 2 days ago?

Question

It takes a full 24 hours for revenue from our site to get sent to Adobe Analytics. So today's revenue is always "0," and Sunday's revenue gets added Monday around noon, Monday's is added on Tuesday, etc. I would like to set up a daily anomalous revenue alert, but when I do, it is triggered every single day, saying that revenue is zero (because of the delay). Is there a way to create a custom metric like "Yesterday's Revenue" or custom segment just for revenue from a day prior that I can use to trigger this alert instead? It is totally fine if the alert is delayed by a day.

You can try with using a custom date range such as this:You can then use it in a segment and apply the segment in the Alert.
