@@cmd/calendar/now
|
Todays date / time |
| @@cmd/calendar/edit/+ 6 months |
This example sets a date field to 6 months on from current date @@cmd/calendar/edit/+ 6 months, - 1 day, and so on You need to make sure each change is separated by a comma and a space: (", ") otherwise the code wont be able to split it out and will get confused. It doesn't matter if you specify "day" or "days" as it will do the same thing anyway. You can now combine this to update built in equipment date fields and equipment attributes.. e.g. @@cmd/calendar/edit/+ 6 months|@@equipment/column/next-service-due This will default the date to 6 months time and store it in next service due date Or to update attribute.... @@cmd/calendar/edit/+ 12 months|@@update/equipment/attribute/{external ref from attribute} |
