Hello, I’m trying to use the new DATE_ADD function that is listed in the 12.2.8 Spark Notes. I just upgraded our sf production environment to this update.
I don’t see the function listed in the formula functions, so I’m not sure it’s even there. But, I also tried to use it manually and nothing is happening. I’m using API v1. Here’s excerpt from Release Notes and then my code.
CORE-2365New formula functions: DATE_ADD and DATE_DIFF
Working with dates can be a complicated process, so we’ve added two new functions to simplify things:
DATE_ADD is used to take a source date, add a specified amount of time to it, and return a new date. For example, you could add fifteen minutes, two weeks, five months, and so on.
DATE_ADD( {{MyDate}}, 1, WEEK )
You can even subtract time from a date by using a negative integer with the formula.
DATE_DIFF is used to calculate the difference between two dates. You can find out how many minutes, weeks, months, and so on between two dates—whether a specific date or the current date—with this function.
DATE_DIFF( {{MyDate}}, {{MySecondDate}}, DAY )
My Code
DATE_ADD({{AcctSeed__Date__c}}, 30, DAY)
