Description

Hi,

In the (dutch) energy sector the convention is that aggregations are stored using the end time of a period, not the start time.
In the documentation I could not find how to alter a continuous query to use the end time instead.
Is this possible?

Research direction

Start by locating the continuous query documentation and implementation in InfluxDB. Check whether the timestamp convention is configurable and identify any existing tests for continuous-query aggregation timestamps. Done means either documenting the supported configuration or defining and implementing the requested period-end behavior.
