Saved Search - Date Calculation - show number of days with leading zeros

edited Feb 17, 2020 6:38PM in Ask A Guru 1 comment

I have a complex saved search formula that calculates the number of days elapsed since an event as part of a text field. I need this to be displayed with leading zeros so that I can group the column by 'minimum' and order the numbers correctly.

The part of the formula for the date calculation is:

TO_DATE(sysdate, 'dd/mm/yyyy')- TO_DATE({activity.date},'DD/MM/YYYY')

Is there a simple function to set the number function to 3 digits (i.e. 001, 012, 123 etc)

I tired to build nested Case When statements to check if it was < 10 and add '00' before the result, and then when <100 add '0' before the result, but the resulting formula was so huge and complex I can't now troubleshoot why it is erroring.
