Date functions on BI publisher

Content

Hi,

I'm trying to add a year to a 'date_to' field but I can't find function on BI publisher. I need the function to return a year later than 'date_to' e.g. If DATE_TO = 31-Mar-15, I want it to return 31-Mar-16

I keep getting function for difference between dates: <?xdoxslt:date_diff(‘y', ‘YYYY-MM-DD’, ‘YYYY-MM-DD’, $_XDOLOCALE, $_XDOTIMEZONE)?>

Thanks in advance

Why not do it in the query in the data model?  simple and straightforward

You can do below

<?xdofx:to_date(INVOICE_DATE,'DD-MM')?>-<?xdofx:to_date(INVOICE_DATE,'YYYY')+1?>

Hi everyone , Thanks a lot for your help. I used Brajesh's function: <?xdofx:to_date(INVOICE_DATE,'DD-MM')?>-<?xdofx:to_date(INVOICE_DATE,'YYYY')+1?>

it worked like charm.

Your help appreciated.
