Date difference in scoped application

[aparnateja]

Hi All,

I want the difference of two date fields (to_date - from_date) in scoped application. I tried using dateDiff() method, but it was showing error that dateDiff is not allowed in scoped applications.

Could any one of you please help me in this regard.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks,

Aparna

Hello Aparna,

The function Subtract() expects two parameters of class "GlideDateTime", in your example you were parsing in "GlideElementGlideObject" (ie. current.to_date), hence why you are seeing the error.

You need to parse the glide value into and create a GlideDateTime object. Please note my line 1 and 2 is different to your code.

Kind regards,

Hi Simon,

I wrote the code like this:

var t = new GlideDateTime(current.to_date);

var f = new GlideDateTime(current.from_date);

var dur = GlideDateTime.subtract(t, f);

gs.addInfoMessage(dur);

I am getting some different date as info Message.

Thanks,

Aparna

Use gs.addInfoMessage(dur.getDisplayValue());
