How to display the value of date/time in the field?

[icelazer]

Hi,

I'm working on Flows and one of the action needed after triggering the conditions is to set the value of these fields. Please see attached. Would like to seek help on what is the script on returning the date/time in the following fields:

1. Last Contact Date = today’s date 

2. Next contact date = 5 Business days 

Thanks for the help.

var today = new GlideDateTime();

var formattedDateTime = today.getDisplayValue();

g_form.setValue('u_last_contact_date',formattedDateTime);

Hello @icelazer 

you can get dates by below lines adding into the inline scripts for variables:

1. Last contact date:

var today = new GlideDateTime();
return today.getDisplayValue();

2. Next Contact Date:

var nextDate = new GlideDateTime();
return nextDate.addDays(5);

for your reference see below ss:

Try

businessDays.addDaysUTC(5);

return businessDays;

Hopefully, this will resolve your query.

Thank you @Vaibhav  . However the script for number 2 is not working on my end. 

I also tried this:

var today = new GlideDateTime();

return today.addDays(5).getDisplayValue();

Try

businessDays.addDaysUTC(5);

return businessDays;
