Show entry date as HH:MM:SS format in report

Hello everyone, 

 

When we export reports in Excel, the entry date values show format as date HH:MM:SS AM/PM format. However, the seconds do not show in the report columns in Workfront. Can someone help with the syntax to show the entire timestamp for the date field?

You don't really need the diversions via a calcualted field, as you can add a column with the following text mode:

 

valueexpression=CONCAT({lastLoginDate}, ' ', HOUR({lastLoginDate}), ':', MINUTE({lastLoginDate}), ':', SECOND({lastLoginDate}))
valueformat=HTML

Hi,

 

good question, but I did not find any possibilty to directly format a date to show seconds also.

 

As a workaround, you could create a calculated field with the following "calculation" 

 

CONCAT({lastLoginDate}, ' ', HOUR({lastLoginDate}), ':', MINUTE({lastLoginDate}), ':', SECOND({lastLoginDate}))

You cannot format dates in Workfront to have seconds, unless you create a custom text mode expression (like @lgaertner shared) so that would be your best bet. This article shares are all the different date formats that Workfront can display:
