How to subtract two date and time fields in server script

[Anurag Tripathi]

Hi,

Here is an example

var gdt1 = new GlideDateTime("2011-08-31 08:00:00");
var gdt2 = new GlideDateTime("2011-08-31 08:00:00");
var dur = GlideDateTime.subtract(gdt1, gdt2);
gs.info(dur.getDisplayValue());

if you have a field you want to use you can pass it as an argument like below

var gdt1 = new GlideDateTime(current.<field name>);

Hi @Kishor O ,

var gdt1 = new GlideDateTime("2024-05-28 09:00:00");
var gdt2 = new GlideDateTime("2024-05-31 18:00:00");
 
var dur = GlideDateTime.subtract(gdt1, gdt2); // Difference between gdt1 and gdt2
gs.info(dur.getDisplayValue());
