How to view date selection in the current selection

Anonymous — Tue, 04 Aug 2015 08:57:12 GMT

I am looking to do a selection of dates range . I create two variables as it's shown in the screenshot VFromDate1 and VtoDate1

In the script :

let vFromDate1 = date(date#(20151231, 'YYYYMMDD'));

let vToDate1 = date(date#(20151231, 'YYYYMMDD'));

The properties of vfromdate1

When I select date , nothing change , I can't see my selection date in the current selection and reports don't change , it's always empty , any idea?

You haven't made any selections yet. Giving variables a value is not the same as selecting values in fields. Perhaps this video tutorial can help you make the selections using the variables: Selecting Arbitrary Date Ranges

Hi,

You have assigned variable to the Calendar Object, if you assign the date field instead of your variable then you can see the selected values in the Current Selection box. Otherwise the variable is updated with the selected value in the Calendar object.

Hope this helps you.
