How to Format Date in MS Dynamics NAV 2017 using C/AL Code?
We generally use Format for two reasons in MS Dynamics NAV :-
1. To convert Integer Type Data in String Format.
FORMAT(Integer Type DATA);
2. To Format Date Type Variable in Navision to convert it into desired date Form.
FORMAT(TODAY,0,4)
Today I got a requirement from my client to change the Indian Date format in DDMMYYYY only
for Example 02052017. So to get this done I had used these formulas and format available in Navision.
| For Dates, the Regional and Language Options in Windows is used to select the actual format that is used. The table below shows the Fields that will be used to build the various formats. This table, incidentally, corresponds to the Regional setting for a European country/region. | ||
