Date Formatter

[akgshanmuga]

Hi Pabbly Team,

I encounter an issue in my workflow in Date Formatter Section.(Workflow name: Transport Operator Permit Reminder)

When using "Filter" to calculate the number of days between given two dates, Filter function gives result only if the date is in MM/DD/YYYY format and if it is in DD/MM/YYYY format, it doesn't do the calculation.

Can you please throw some light on this?

Thanks

Hey @akgshanmuga

It's an excel format issue and the" DD/MM/YYYY" doesn't work with the excel formula, Try to use the date in "MM/DD/YYYY" or in "YYYY/MM/DD" format which is ISO date format. We are simply using the formula provided by the spreadsheet plugins and it seems that this format of date is not compatible with it.
