how to add/display timestamp while creating a report using pentaho report designer 3.6, having date as a parameter and when the user chose the date, the timestamp should be displayed
Define your parameter as type "Timestamp" or "Date" (not Date (SQL)!). All you need to do then is to display your parameter in a date-field with the correct format-string to display time-elements.

I'm trying to get release date field with y-m-d format.. Actually time format (for y-m-d) seems fine but also it gives h:m:s too, I changed time format at server side and removed h:m:s but datatable still shows them
What I get
2012-04-11 00:00:00
What I want
2012-04-11
Released_at field (Metronic theme - json datatable)
{
field: "released_at",
title: "Release Date",
type: "date",
format: "YYYY/MM/DD"
}
time format (I'm using laravel framework)
protected $dateFormat = "Y-m-d";
How do I fix this ?
Datatable accept column type same as mysql type.
You are trying to convert mysql dateTime column to Date in datatable, which is not possible from datatable.
In your code you have declared
format: "YYYY/MM/DD" // but actual type is dateTime as per mysql.So it will append time next to it.
If you are storing only date in mysql then you can change column type to Date, and your problem gets solved.
And if you want to convert string to date in laravel you can follow this post.
Your database column is of type dateTime which, by definition, includes both date and time information. If you want to remove the time at a database level then use the date type instead
$table->date("released_at")->nullable();
If instead of removing the time from the database, you just want to ignore it for certain parts of your application, you can leverage the fact than in Laravel all dates coming from your models are Carbon\Carbon instances, so you could do
$model->releasedAt->format('y-m-d'); // Returns '18-09-11'
In my code, I insert from one date field to another date field, then update my entity with the new data and debugging my code. I get this exception:
A validation error occurred. The value of on record of type is outside the valid range.
When I change the same field in CRM UI I get no error. Where should I look for? What is the problem?
Normally this error will look like:
A validation error occurred. The value of 'field_name' on record of type 'entity_name' is outside the valid range.
You have to make sure, if the field is optionset - then the value (ex.10000000) passed in code is within the available range of options in optionset customization (ex: 10000000, 10000001, 10000002)
You said date field, verify if the date fields between the entities are of same type (like date only, date time, timezone specific, etc). Also the retrieval from CRM using SDK will give you UTC whereas the date value assignments in code while create/update will be parsed to UTC.. check that too for possible date range like 31st November 2017.
In MySql Date column format is "yyyy-MM-dd"
When I try to load it on report I got #Error
I tried using CDate and set Localization - Language but still doesn't work
What I'm using to fix this now is to use date_format from MySql query like this
date_format(myDate,'%d/%m/%Y')
and when I use myDate in SSRS report I have to convert it by using CDate
I'm just curious to know there is anyway better?
The following conversion is not working. I would like to see if anyone can be able to solve it.
Syntax:
ToText(Date({db.field}),"dd/MM/yyyy")
System is saying that the date id is required.
however ToText( Date({db.field}), "dd/MM/yyyy") is working fine....
the other simplest way is :
Crystal Report Design Window->Right click on date field->format Field->Customize the date format as you want to.
By default if the input parameter to BIRT report is of type Date, it takes yyyy-MM-dd format.
Can we change to something else e.g. may be dd/MM/yyyy ?
You can change the input format for a date parameter. Click on "Change..." select Format as "Custom" and you can enter a valid format code as you like.
If you want to enter a default Date you still have to use the yyyy-MM-dd Format, this cannot be changed ( where I used new Date() in the Picture), but the output format will still be your entered format.
Another option is to use the format Date Time section in the Birt designer and choose the right locale and formatting for the date.
I have done it in Birt 3.7 and works fine
There can be many way to do that but the easy one is you can do this in SQL Query itself.
If you are using DB2 you may try
VARCHAR_FORMAT("Your Column Mapping Name",'DD-Mon-YYYY') AS dataSetName.
But this will change its Data type to String
Try if this make any seance.
