Add Days to Date Field using Workflow
Hello,
I have a custom record with a handful of custom date fields on it. I'm able to use a workflow to set some of my date fields based off of each other using the formula: "nlapiDateToString(nlapiAddDays(new Date(nlapiGetFieldValue('custrecord_custom_date')) ,365))".
I found this in a help article and it works well. I'm not used to using the API formulas however, and I'd like to actually grab a joined field. I know in a more traditional formula I'd use {joinedrecord.custrecord_custom_date}. I tried ('joinedrecord.custrecord_custom_date'), but the format seems incorrect. Could anyone point me in the right direction?
