Flow Designer Action to add number of days (integer) to a date

[Shilpa Mannoni1]

Can anyone help me with the script for an action where the number of days can be added to the date.

Input: Date, No of days

Output: Date

Script needs to: add Date + No of days and return date

@Shilpa Mannoni1 Here is the custom action for you which takes two parameters Date and number of days and add the days to date and returns the updated date.

Here is the script for run script.

(function execute(inputs, outputs) {
// ... code ...
  var someDate = new GlideDate();
  someDate.setValue(inputs.date);
  someDate.addDaysUTC(inputs.days);
  outputs.new_date = someDate;
})(inputs, outputs);

I am also attaching the update set which contains this Action.

Please mark this answer correct and helpful if it addresses your requirement.

Variable Name: general_need_by_date

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {

var today_dateStr = formatDate(new Date(),g_user_date_format);
var todayNum = getDateFromFormat(today_dateStr,g_user_date_format);

if(newValueNum < todayNum || newValueNum < fourteen_daysNum) {
g_form.addErrorMessage('"Need by date" must be at least 14 days from today: ' + fourteen_days_from_todayStr);
// alert('14 days from today is ' + fourteen_days_from_todayStr);
g_form.clearValue('general_need_by_date');
}
}

That script is for the Catalog Item (not for Flow Designer)
