I have a situation where we have a view that I set up using the SQL script

It's pretty uncommon and not fully idiomatic to use a view like that, not what one would expect.Include the period range in the view itself.And let the user of the view specify the period.That can be calculated (i.e. a rolling), fixed in a table, or specified via variables.Or if you need a performant snapshot for whatever reason, you can consider also MQTs.
