Use the compare quick action to compare the dates, and add the dates in the formula field.

To compare the dates, you need to format them into UNIX timestamps. To do that, select the cog wheel next to the date and enter %s in the Custom format field.

If you want to skip data references and enter a date yourself, use this converter (external page) to create a UNIX timestamp that you'll enter into the Formula field in Next Matter.
For example, comparing this date 01/07/2024 will look like this after the date has been converted:
