Passing a date as a string from ICS to BIP report

Content

Hi

I have a BIP report which has one parameter called systemdate defined as a string. The report expects the current date to be passed as a string( I am using to_date function in the report query to convert the string into date)

I need to submit this report from ICS. I need to pass the current time from ICS as a string to this report. Can somebody guide me on how I can convert the date to string in the mapping screen.

I can see there is XPath function for String under 'Conversion' tree, but not able to figure out how to use it
