In this post we can view the usage of cast operation using SysComputedColumn in D365FO.

Please refer to this post to know about the details of the view DAXPurchAgreementDetails.

( ) X code using SysComputedColumn with a SQL query in D365FO. - Dynamics 365 Finance Community

Step 1: Created a new field on the view DAXPurchAgreementDetails by name CreatedDate to display only the date part from date time.

Step 2: Created a method "computeCreatedDate" to display the date part from created date time of a purchase order.

public static str computeCreatedDate()
    {
        TableName   viewName           = tableStr(DAXPurchAgreementDetails); //Entity name
        str         createdDateTimeStr = SysComputedColumn::returnField(viewName, identifierStr(PurchTable), fieldStr(PurchTable, CreatedDateTime));
       
        return SysComputedColumn::cast(createdDateTimeStr, 'date');
    }

Step 3:   Assigned view method "computeCreatedDate" to the newly created field "CreatedDate".

Step 4: Build the solution. In the table browser able to see the created date of purchase orders.
