How to display year only from data input with format DD/MM/YYYY ?

[#1]

Hi expert i'm new in adobe livecycle designer, recently I have a requirement to display year only with YYYY format from input data with format DD/MM?YYYY. Actually I'm working in SAP C4C on sales quote we here input date from calender dropdown with DD/MM/YYYY format, but when we print the pdf file, the file just need to display theh year YYYY format only?

Thank you

Hi,

with a short FormCalc script in the Year2 fields calculate event this won't be a problem:

if (not DateField1.isNull) then
    $ =  Sum(DateField1.formattedValue, 5)
endif

Hello Radzmar, Maybe you also know this one too.

I have a requirement, after successfully displaying the year, we have a field called year2. The value for year2 is filled by the formula year2 =year1 + 5

year1 is the previous year that is gotten from converted input date (DD/MM/YYYY has been converted to YYYY)

I have tried many formulas but they are not work anymore

Thank you.

You can define different patterns for a date field, one for displaying, editing, validating and saving.

Use the Display pattern date{YYYY} and the Edit pattern date{DD/MM/YYYY}.
