Date and Time Functoids

  • Article

Overview

Date / Time functoids can be divided into two categories. The first category contains a single functoid, Add Days, which is used to add a specified number of days to a specified date and time value. This can be useful when a field in the output instance message is supposed to include a date and time estimate in the future. For example, the Add Days functoid can be used to generate an estimated shipping date based a fixed delta from the date that an order was received.

The second category includes all of the remaining functoids in the Date and Time category. They are used to provide a timestamp at run time, so that the date and time at which message transformation is being performed can be included in the output instance message.

The Add Days functoid accepts two input parameters, whereas the Date, Date and Time, and Time functoids have no input parameters.

Available functoids

The Date / Time functoids are:

  • Add Days

More details on these functoids are available Functoid Reference in the UI guidance and developers API namespace reference.
