Hi,

I want to convert Today's date into Yesterday date using X++.

For E.g : Today - 10/09/2019 to Yesterday - 10/08/2019.

Kindly suggest here.

Thanks and Regards,

Vignesh

    Hi Vignesh,

    Besides that, you can use addDays(date,-1);

    utcDateTime         todayLessOneDay,
                        // Get the actual UTCDateTime based on the current system
todaysDateTime = DateTimeUtil::utcNow();
                        
// Convert it to a string, just to show in on the info log
info(DateTimeUtil::toStr(todaysDateTime));
   
// Now less a day
todayLessOneDay = DateTimeUtil::addDays(todaysDateTime, -1);
   
// And Info it out again
info(DateTimeUtil::toStr(todayLessOneDay));
