Hi,

I am struggling with a date format, F_EOD is the formatted date eg.Date() or Date#(). Each time i wrap a function being it Date,Year,Month the field goes empty.R_EOD is the raw fieldname unformatted.

Please help.

Hi,

did you try using the format 'DD/MM/YYYY' in your application?

Let Qlikview know it is a date field by doing Date#(R_EOD, 'DD/MM/YYYY').

Load the fields as

Date#(F_EOD) as F_EOD

and check in qlikview what you get may be it is 41234 some thing like this value then convert it into your date format.

You probably have the wrong date format settings?

Wrong:

SET DateFormat='MM/DD/YYYY';

Right:

SET DateFormat='DD/MM/YYYY';
