Displaying Start-End Date in Dynamics CRM - dynamics-crm

I have created email workflow which will trigger biweekly. I have to show To Date-From Date in the email body based on the record Created On field. I am not using any custom code, as I am new to dynamics and don't have developer background. For To date, I can use record Created On field but how to calculate End Date based on Created On.

If End Date is always a set amount of time after the Start Date, you can specify this in an update step of the workflow. For example, you can set it to 14 days after the Start Date:
You can also use the date when the workflow runs:

Is there a way to add the current date in AWS QuickSight dashboard's title/description?

I would like to add current date (or latest reload time) in AWS QuickSight dashboard's title/description, is there a way to add the formula to text bar?
It could be added to the description by creating a date parameter and assigning a dynamic default which gives today's date. Then you can add the parameter as follows <<$ParameterName>> to the description and it should show its value which would be today's date.
A dashboard's title is only set when the dashboard is created so you cannot change that (unless you publish a new dashboard daily)
It can be done using calculated fields. basically create calculated filed which will give you same current date for all your rows and you can use that field in insight visual by customizing narrative.

Microsoft PowerAutomate

I am currently building an out of office workflow in Microsoft powerautomate for Teams. When a request for 8/19/20 gets submitted it gets changed to 8/20/20 and same thing with the end date. Is there a way to set a it so it shows the actual dates selected?
So i think this is happening due to Default UTC time zone is used by Power Automate. Here is a flow that uses the Convert time zone action with a base time of utcNow(). Convert the time to needed timezone and then used an Update item action to update a date field with that converted time value. The correct time shows up in my SharePoint list
Hope this may help you.

Date Picker Validation Start Date

I am new to the environment and need help writing a validation statement in APEX.
I have a Start Date and End Date field on a page with a Date Picker Type.
The End Date validation has already been set ( end date must be equal to or greater than start date )
Now I need to implement this validation for start date:
User should be able to choose either the current date (today) or a future date.
Is there a way to disable previous days on Apex? Or would I need to write a validation statement? If so, what validation statement could I use?
Check out the settings for the date picker, specifically the minimum date.
Use the help to work out exactly what you need. APEX will then handle the validations for you.

How can I dynamically set the time period on a Workflow Time Trigger?

I have a custom object with Start and End date fields, and also a Status field.
When a new record is created, if the Start date specified is in the future, I would like to be able to have a Workflow update the Status field to 'Active' when the Start date is today. However, I only appear to be able to select a fixed number of days after which my Field Update task can be triggered. What I want is to set that number of days equal to Start date - Today's date.
Can this be done?
OK, I realised I can set the time delay to zero days after the Start date. Not intuitive (For me), but it makes sense.

SSRS how to show only month/year as a parameter using/customizing calendar control

I use SSRS 2005.I currently have two datetime parameters (for start and end dates) as parameters for my report. I get the default calendar controls to select the dates.
I want to show only month and year in the calendar control which can be selected by user. Is that possible?
I can create two text fields and let user enter month & year in each text field and i've two validate these two text fields. I dont want to do this because needs typing into the fields.
OR
I can create four dropdown lists for start month, start year and end month and end year with values but this involves clicking/scrolling a bit more. Dont want to do this either.
Can somebody suggest a solution?
Thank you
Bo
This cannot be done using the calendar control.
You can either use the calendar control ignoring the day or implement one of the other two solutions you mentioned.
In case of combobox, you can use select distinct month/year from your data to fill values.
To make this less annoying for your user's to run the report, default your month/year from/to values to these that usually the user selects to run the report.
Personally I would prefer textboxes with default values
eg. If user runs the report for current year from January to current month then the defaults would be
Month from: = 1
Month to: = Datepart("m", Now())
Year from, Year to: = Datepart("yyyy", Now())
