    <title>topic Date Fields wont work with variables in App Development</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi all,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Below is some code I have written and I am wondering why when in the coloured part of the script I use my CLOSE_DT field instead of the CLOSE_DT_TIMESTAMP.autocalendar.Date (auto generated variable) is doesn't work. Is there anyway I can mimic these autogenerated variable in my load script, I really hate the long named variables.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Alex&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="alex-wb_0-1620232753619.png" style="width: 400px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.qlik.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/54368i6DC04176183DFAA8/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="alex-wb_0-1620232753619.png" alt="alex-wb_0-1620232753619.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://community.qlik.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/135685"&gt;@alex-wb&lt;/a&gt;, probably is because of the date format, if autoCalendar.Date uses a different one (for example DD/MM/YYYY) as CLOSE_DT (for example MM-DD-YY).&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Anyway, you can build your own calendar table or edit the autoCalendar functions to adapt to what you want.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;JG&lt;/P&gt;</description>
