How to set Catalog item variable date/time to display short date/time?

[Nicholas Hromya]

I want the Catalog Item variable of date/time (could be single line text) in the service portal to NOT show seconds or  milliseconds.

I understand this can be set on the display for user preferences, however, two things, it is already set to not show seconds and I have found this is not applying it to the catalog item within the service portal and not in the notifications when it displays this variable.

I was looking at something like the below, but I don't see how I can apply this to the variable type date/time.

var gd = new GlideDate();

var displayValue = gd.getDisplayValue();

gs.info('Display Value: ' + displayValue); // Output: Display Value: 11-13-2023

or can I add this to my notification?

=FormatDateTime(variablename, DateFormat.ShortDate)

Thanks in advance.

Hello @SwathiSarang 

Thank you for the reply, I got a java script error on the catalog item.

I want to include the catalog item view.

I really want this to apply to a Notification, I presume the variable with seconds at 00 will pass through.
