Date Difference between forms Start Date and Start Time

asked on October 26, 2017 • Show version history

Hey Guys,

Got a bit of a weird issue, I have a Save to Repository Service Task that uses the {/dataset/_initiated_date} variable. I noticed that they were sometimes coming through with yesterdays date. Figuring it may be a timezone issue as it wasn't happening all the time, I added in {/dataset/_initiated_time} that's when it got weirder.

You can see from the above image that the Time's Date matches the actual date perfectly (so not a time zone issue) but the date is yesterdays date. Any ideas on what i'm missing here?

Update: So it is a time zone issue, the Start Date is UTC but the Start Time is local time. This doesn't make a lot of sense, is this intentional or is there a setting i'm missing somewhere?

Thanks,

Aaron

Hi Aaron,

Which version of Forms did you use? There was a similiar issue fixed in Forms 10.2 Update 1, can you check if it's applicable?

  • The {/dataset/_initiated_date}, {/dataset/_submission_date}, and {/dataset/_fs_submission_date} process variables now function as expected for all time zones. (154525)
