Compare date only field with date and time field

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Member

I have a date only field that I am comapring with a date and time field (created on) and I am comparing them in the following way:

if Date only field = Date and time field with the intention that I only want to compare the day month and year part of both fields but the condition becomes false if the Date only field is populated 2 seconds after Date and time field is populated. 

So is there a way to compare Date only field with only the DD/MM/YYYY part of Date and time field ?

    Hi,

     if you have two dates, you can always use setHours on both of them, and, then, compare:

      var d1 = ..

      var d2 = ..

      d1.setHours(0,0,0,0);

      d2.setHours(0,0,0,0);

      if(d1 > d2){

      }

    Thanks for the response. Actually I need to do this using out of the box workflow.

    Well.. Maybe you need to create a calculated field, use DiffInDays function, and, in your workflow, check if the value is "0"

    You can still trigger that workflow on the update of the datetime field

    Or you can always develop a custom workflow activity to check the difference right in the workflow
