Unable to set date field value from ATF in yyyy:MM:dd HH:mm:ss

[SangyM]

Hi,

So, here I am trying to put the value in this scheduled date combo field but everytime it is only putting the yy:MM:dd values instead of my designated format.

This is the code that have written :

(function executeStep(inputs, outputs, stepResult, timeout) {

// Get current datetime and add 48 hours

var gdt = new GlideDateTime();

gdt.addSeconds(48 * 60 * 60); // 48 hours

// Return GlideDateTime object directly (this is what the datetime field expects)

stepResult.setSuccess();

outputs.u_date_after_48_hrs = gdt.getValue(); // returns date in Glide format: yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss

})(inputs, outputs, stepResult, timeout);

FYI : it is 48 hours later date.

Can someone please help me refractor it?

Hi @SangyM 

The field (u_date_after_48_hrs ) may expect a javascriopt date object not a GlideDateTime string, or the atf step may be applying a string formatting mismatch.

You should try returning a javascript date object:

(function executeStep(inputs, outputs, stepResult, timeout) {
    // Add 48 hours using JavaScript date
    var now = new Date();
    now.setHours(now.getHours() + 48); // Add 48 hours
 
    // Return JavaScript Date object
    outputs.u_date_after_48_hrs = now;
    stepResult.setSuccess();
})(inputs, outputs, stepResult, timeout);

Kindly do let me know if it works.
