In our company we have customers that have a different type of delivery package depending on which weekday it is. those values are in one field that contains a seven-character long string (e.g. 0324256 or 3276458, etc.). The weekdays are in another field next to it and the numbers in the string refer to a certain delivery package.
So now i need a formula to type in the script which gives me a new field with only ONE character that corresponds to the current weekday, so that i can see very easily what sort of package my customer has on a specific weekday.
So for those strings, those are the wanted outputs:
if weekday = tuesday then it gives me the 2nd character of the string
0324256 --> 3
3276458 --> 2
or if weekday = thursday then it gives me the 4th character of the string
0324256 --> 4
3276458 --> 6
Is there such a formula? I know how to do it in Excel but it would be great if i could directly script it in the editor.
