Features Request - Add Leading zeros for dates in Forms Token values

Forms Feature
Updated September 7, 2022

We have 2 clients requesting this for different reasons. But one clear reason is for sorting by custom dates alphabetically when put in the task name. Zeros help solve the alphabetical sorting issue of numbers, since 0 comes before 1 alphabetically.

The other reason is for passing the data to the government and a little more specific, but they asked for leading zeros as well since they have to remember to use a WF function to add it back in every time.

You can follow "To manually configure the default date and time format" section on https://doc.laserfiche.com/laserfiche.documentation/11/administration/en-us/Default.htm#../Subsystems/Forms/Content/Administration/Configuring-Date-Time-Settings.htm to change the format of the date variable value for the new tasks. It will affect all the newly generated date variable values used for other places once it is changed.

Is there a GUI interface for making the changes instead of the config file? This way we can do it in Cloud as well

Cloud doesn't support it yet. The clients who requested this are using Cloud?

For this request to be able to sort by date, yes they are Cloud.
