Attention: To align with new corporate security policies, and to match policies adopted by other communities within Oracle, the My Oracle Support Community access requirements will change beginning September 18, 2025. MOSC will now require that member accounts in our community be associated to a *corporate* email address. This means that users with generic domains (such as gmail.com, yahoo.com, and others) will no longer be granted access to the discussion forums and ideas labs. If this policy affects you, act now to change the email address that is associated with your Oracle (and community) account. Alternatively, you can opt to create a new Oracle account that uses your corporate email domain.

How to subtract a number of days from a date field

Jul 15, 2019 12:43PM edited Jul 16, 2019 9:05AM in BI Publisher (MOSC) 2 commentsAnswered ✓

Hi,

This is for BI Publisher (JDE) in a Microsoft Word template.

I need to get the previous date by subtracting 32 days from the date.

Example: I need to subtract 32 days from 2019-04-30 and return 2019-03-29.

Date Field: <ReadDate_ID4>2019-04-30</ReadDate_ID4>

Days Field: <Days_ID33>32</Days_ID33>

Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks,

Tony
