AW: Long text description date format different from workitem date format

The issue with this is that the Workitem text is static. It is generate=
d
once when the workitem is created and is then stored in a table with al=
l
the expressions already resolved. The long text on the other hand is
actually calculated each time you display it (you can change the long t=
ext
against a task and see that already existing Workitems show the new tex=
t).
Date formating is a user definable preference. A hardcoded format as We=
rner
suggested may not suit everyone but it may be difficult to do much more=
. If
you only had a single agent you could predetermine the agent, determine=
their date format settings and ensure it was displayed in that format, =
but
once you've got more than 1 agent for the same work item... your knacke=
red.
Apart from anything that's a lot of work just for a bit of date formatt=
ing.
I'm not certain, but I'm sure someone is, are the dynamic columns more
dynamic with regards to date formatting?
Have fun,
Mark

Hi Partha,
i had the same problem months ago.
I solved it with an additional element 'date':
date(2) =3D evdat+6(2). date+2(1) =3D '.'.
date+3(2) =3D evdat+4(2). date+5(1) =3D '.'.
date+6(4) =3D evdat(4).
Hope that helps!
Regards,
Werner.

Betreff: Long text description date format different from workitem date=
format
Hi All,
I have a workflow task where I use the exact same date variable in both=
the
long text description for the task and the workitem description. The
problem is that the long text shows the correct date format in the user=
's
logon format but the workitem text that uses the exact same variable sh=
ows
a different format.
I have looked at the archives and OSS and nothing too relevant pops up =
but
perhaps I am searching for the wrong things. The most relevant note is=
from 1999 and should already be part of our 4.7 Enterprise (ext 200)
release, Basis 6.2.
Any suggestions on how to alleviate this problem would be appreciated. =
It
would be nice if I did not have to produce code just for this.
Best regards,
Partha
