Format Forms Tokens

asked on April 12, 2016

Is there a way to format LF Forms tokens. I am trying to send a form to a certain path. But I want the date to be listed as the month only (MMMM). Can you format forms token the same way as workflow?

Miruna and Abby,

Abby, that wouldn't work for my situation. I would like for my file to go in the year and then month. Miruna, that's what I have it doing now. Just wondering if there was an easier way. Because I have attachments that have to move as well. Just wish I could tell it to go the right path out of the gate because when we make changes I have to modify the process model and a workflow. Is there any possible way they will add this feature to forms?

Field variable date token format is read from the \\machinename\c$\Program Files\Laserfiche\Laserfiche Forms\Forms\bin\RoutingEngineServiceHost.exe.config

        <add key="UseSystemDateTimeFormat" value="false"/>
        <add key="DefaultDateTimeFormat" value="MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm a"/>
        <add key="DefaultDateFormat" value="MM/dd/yyyy"/>

you can change the format here, and it affects the entire system all processes date type field variable token format

Abby's suggestion will format dates for all processes. You can't format it per activity at this time. You could save them in a initial location though and have Workflow re-file them for you with the reformatted value.
