Master Calendar Challenges

Good day everyone

Usually I use Master Calendar to generate my date related fields like Quarter, Month and so on

I wanted to use a field that contains date as well as time (Please see attached file "Date,png")

I have issues when I use this field

Please find the attached files including the master calendar script I used.

How can I resolve it?

If you're not even willing to look up a function in a help file then you're beyond help as far as I'm concerned. Try finding a job that is less demanding for you.

Hello sir, I got it

Using the script

Date(Floor(Timestamp#("CH#DOC#LAST CHANGED AT", 'DD.MM.YYYY hh:mm:ss')), 'MM/DD/YYYY') as Date,

I was able to manipulate the date from the timestamp, but I didn't use the master calendar techniques, I use the preceding load for the date variables.

I still need more pro tips on this subject...

I got a unique challenge right now

I was putting my data from SQL, I got the desired date field results (Month, Quarter and so on)

But for this work, I need to put the data from excel sheet... (Same structure, same field with the SQL connection) but the date fields are missing.

Please see attached files for clarity!!

I can you help me with clues how I will debug it

Thank you

Hi,

Just make sure your [CH.DOC.LAST CHANGED AT] is in date format not in text.

try with date#() or timestamp#()

try like

Date(Floor(Timestamp#([CH.DOC.LAST CHANGED AT], 'DD.MM.YYYY hh.mm.ss')), 'MM/DD/YYYY') as Date,
