Advanced PDF/HTML Template vs Custom Transaction Body Field handling of Date Formats

edited Dec 3, 2019 11:47AM in SuiteCloud / Customization

Thought I’d throw out this interesting difference on date format handling, for anyone who is looking for an example.

I’ve an Advanced PDF/HTML Credit Memo Template that displays the Due Date from the source Invoice… one level back.

Inside the template, using
${record.createdfrom.duedate} the result displayed is: 2016-02-12 00:00:00.

However, from a Custom Transaction Body Field, ID: custbody_duedate, STORE VALUE = No, TYPE=Date, DEFAULT VALUE = {createdfrom.duedate}, FORMULA = Yes,
and inside the template, using
${record.custbody_duedate}, the result displayed is: 02/12/2016

Just wanted to supply a working example.
