I want to retrieve all records based on recent  similar createdon date. It is showing following exception.

The date-time format for createdon is invalid, or value is outside the supported range

Query:

 

var d1 = Convert.ToDateTime(subaction["startdate"]);

 var d2 = Convert.ToDateTime(subaction["approvedenddate"]);

 string FetchXML = "<fetch>" +

                    "  <entity name=\"sales\" >" +

                    "    <attribute name=\"rate\" />" +

                    "    <filter type=\"and\">" +

                    "      <condition attribute=\"date\" operator=\"between\" descending=\"true\" >" +

                    "      <value> " + d1.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy") + " </value>" +

                    "      <value> " + d2.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy") + " </value>" +

                    "      </condition>" +

                    "       <condition attribute=\"createdon\"  operator=\"eq\" value=\"createdon\" >" +

                    "      </condition>" +

                    "         <condition attribute=\"ford_approved\" operator=\"eq\" value=\"1\" />" +

                    "    </filter>" +

                    "      <order attribute=\"createdon\" descending=\"true\" />" +

                    "  </entity>" +

                    " </fetch>";

    Use below function to format your date to yyyy-mm-dd:

    					function formatDate(date) {
    var d = new Date(date),
        month = '' + (d.getMonth() + 1),
        day = '' + d.getDate(),
        year = d.getFullYear();

    if (month.length < 2) month = '0' + month;
    if (day.length < 2) day = '0' + day;

    return [year, month, day].join('-');
}

    var d1 = Convert.ToDateTime(subaction["startdate"]);
 var d2 = Convert.ToDateTime(subaction["approvedenddate"]);
 
 d1 = formatDate(d1);
 d2 = formatDate(d2);
 
 string FetchXML = "<fetch>" +
                    "  <entity name=\"sales\" >" +
                    "    <attribute name=\"rate\" />" +
                    "    <filter type=\"and\">" +
                    "      <condition attribute=\"date\" operator=\"between\" descending=\"true\" >" +
                    "      <value> " + d1 + " </value>" +
                    "      <value> " + d2 + " </value>" +
                    "      </condition>" +
                    "       <condition attribute=\"createdon\"  operator=\"eq\" value=\"createdon\" >" +
                    "      </condition>" +
                    "         <condition attribute=\"ford_approved\" operator=\"eq\" value=\"1\" />" +
                    "    </filter>" +
                    "      <order attribute=\"createdon\" descending=\"true\" />" +
                    "  </entity>" +
                    " </fetch>";

    Hi Priyanka,

    Value should be date in "yyyy-MM-dd" format for "createdon" condition.

    and one more thing, Please use "on" operator instead of "eq" for date.

    For Example, you can use

    <condition attribute="createdon" value="2017-05-19" operator="on"/>

    Hope this helps

    Thanks & Regards

    I don't think there it toISOString in c#?

    Pretty sure that date format depends on how user settings are configured.. so, if the plugin/workflow is running in the context of a specific user, the date format used for those fetch conditions has to match the date format configured for that user in CRM.

    You might try using the approach described here to get user-specific date format from CRM:

    bds-experts.com/get-user-personal-settings

    And, then, may have to use that format for the data conversions.

    Or you might just convert that fetch into a queryexpression - you can use DateTime parameters without "ToString" conversion there:

    Hi

    Alex is correct, ((Sorry, I provided for JS).

    Please try ISO 8601 format.

    d1.ToString("s");
