Changing the Date Format

[ramirch]

Hello!

The system date format in our instances is YYYY-MM-DD. Is there a way to change this to MM-DD-YY without changing the system date format?

Thanks!

@Priyanka0402, I want to change the date format for a specific application or module only. I do not want to update the date format for the instance. Is this possible?

Hello @ramirch 

You can use the below code to format the date to MM-DD-YY

var date= new GlideDate();

                            //replace new GlideDate() with the incoming date

 var date2 = date.getByFormat('yyyy/MM/dd');

                         //now use the date2 to set the field value as you want

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.
