Dynamic date condition in AJO

Avatar

Level 2

I have a requirement in the journey that I creating. The requirement is to check on a date attribute to see if it is "y" days from current date i.e., let's say that "end_date" is 'xx-xx-xxxx xx:xx:xx' and it is equal to y days from today's date, then continue with the journey, otherwise end right there. When I pick the date field attribute and try to check if it is current_date + y days, I don't get the current_date option. It looks like the check will happen "y" days after when I create the journey. How do I implement the same in AJO?

Hi Sathees,

 

I could not respond immediately. The above solution is partially correct. The right function for my use case is nowWithDelta.

 

toDateOnly(toString(nowWithDelta(90,'days')))=toDateOnly("2023-10-06T00:00:00")

 

Your note helped me find the working solution quicker.

 

Thank you,

Sirisha

@sirisha_ganti, Try this expression in the journey condition considering the end date is 4 days from today.

toDateOnly(toString(inNextDays(now(),4)))==toDateOnly("2023-10-06T00:00:00")

Thanks, Sathees

Is there a way to calculate the difference from a field whose value is date, for example -

 

@{Myevent._xyz.subscription.expiry_date} - 90 'days'? 

 

I want to use the above in a wait condition.

@sirisha_ganti You can try setDays function. Remember wait activity will accept dateTimeOnly format.

setDays(toDateTimeOnly(@{Myevent._xyz.subscription.expiry_date}),-90)

Hello @sirisha_ganti and @SatheeskannaK ,

Is it possible to change the '90 days' to a calculated value?

e.g. toDateOnly(toString(nowWithDelta(round(122/3),'days')))

I'm also not able to use a dynamic value here:

e.g. toDateOnly(toString(nowWithDelta(#{ExperiencePlatform.DateFields.profile._repo.createDate},'days')))

Thanks
