Hello,

I need to hardcode the date value which should be system date format only.

example: need to filter data using with hardcode date.

select * from Table where transdate= SYSTEMHARDCODEDATE;

how do i specify the date format because i am not sure about the date format in prod environment.

    The date format used by the OS in production is irrelevant - the actual question is how to define date literals in X .

    Let me quote the relevant documentation page: X Primitive data types.

    The date data type contains the day, month, and year. Dates can be written as literals by using the following syntax: Date literal = day \ month \ year. You must use four digits for the year.

    Example:

    // A date variable, d3, is initialized to the 21st of November 1998.
    date d3 = 21\11\1998;

    Nevertheless you shouldn't have such hard-coded values in production code.

    Hi,

    You can use mkdate() function.

    transDate = mkDate(31, 12, 2023);
