Current Date Problem

Hello,
I'm admittedly a beginner user.  I'm trying to get a form to display the current date.
I've followed the instructions in the Help file exactly, and everything seems to make sense, but all I get in the preview is a blank field.
Hopefully it's a very simple question with a simple solution.
Thank you for any help you can give. 

Thank you, that makes more sense than manually doing it with a Date/Time object.
However, I think the problem must be something else, as it is now telling me "Parts of this object cannot be used in forms with PDF artwork".
I have a PDF file that I imported, which I'm guessing is the problem.  However, I do need the field to be available on this existing PDF file.
Thank you again.

  • Problem with getting current date and time using oracle.jbo.domain.Date

    I`d like to get current date and time using oracle.jbo.domain.Date method getCurrentDate(), but it always return current date and 12:00:00. I also need to get the current time.

    I think you should use java.sql.Timestamp domain.

  • Copying files to my MBA Early 2011, 10.6.7 changes their 'date modified' to the current date. It happens only to some of the files copied. Any idea what my be causing it. Never had this problem before, on othe macs I have owned.

    Copying files to my new MBA (early 2011) running 10.6.7 results in their 'modification date' to change to the current date. Any idea what may be causing it. It happens only to some of the files (there is no pattern to it.). I have not seen it previously in many other macs I have owned.

    Hi all
    I am bumping this thread again because I can't believe that I am the only one experiencing this issue. At times it is costing me hours repeatedly copying files until eventually the date doesn't show as modified.
    I thought I had cracked it earlier by changing the Sharing & Permissions settings, and applying to enclosed items the ability for Everyone, Me and Staff fo have Read & Write permissions - but that doesn't seemed to have changed much.
    Copying in smaller batches helps sometimes, but then other times it makes no odds, and the Date Modified date shows as the original date for a few seconds, only to change to today's date. Driving me nuts because there is no pattern to it.
    Files which I have copied and show their original modified date, when moved to a subfolder, then have their date changed to today!!! Copying other files into the folder results in files that were previously OK having their Date Modified changed!
    Am I on the only one?

  • Problem with current date field...

    I want to display the current date and time, but when I change the data format in the binding tab to "Date and Time" and assign a pattern that includes date and time, all I get is the current date, NOT the time. TIA!

    I have tried applying these scripts in the initialize event to all manner of objects, text field objects, date/time objects, numeric objects, current date objects, and it shows nothing. If I could just edit the date/time format of the current date object when it is set to "Runtime Property-Current Date/Time" I MIGHT be able to use it. I really appreciate your help thus far. Would it be possible for you to share a pdf file that you've made where this works so I might disect it? No matter what pattern I specify in the "Field" palette, it shows it's own formatting.
    UPDATE: I did go back after trying it a few times to change the value after Page1 to match the name of my field.
    UPDATE 2: Here is a link to what I've done. Take a look and let me know what I'm doing wrong, or change it and share it back. Thanks so much for your help!!!

  • How to show current date in a column of dimension table in ssas

    Hi,
    I have 2 dimension tables (ALLWORK and YOURWORK) and 1 measure table (STATS). In ALLWORK dim table, I have 4 columns, one of them is END_DATE. Based on END_DATE and current date I want to create a named calculation field. To achieve this, I
    want to show the current date in 5th column (of ALLWORK dim table) as calculated member (as named calculation wont show me correct date).
    Problem is, I am not able to create the column in the dimension table. While creating the calculated member, I am not able to select the ALLWORK dimension table, it always selects MEASURE by default. Please help.
    thanks
    Tarique
    thanks and regards Tarique Aslam

    Hi Tarique,
    According to your description, you want to add a column to your dimension to show the current date, right?
    In data source view, we can add named calculation to your table. A named calculation is a SQL expression represented as a calculated column. This expression appears and behaves as a column in the table. A named calculation lets you extend the relational
    schema of existing tables or views in a data source view without modifying the tables or views in the underlying data source.

  • Option to show values up to last closed fiscal period or up to current date

    Hello,
    How would I create a query that would ask if I want it to calculate values 'up to the current date' or for the 'latest closed fiscal period'.
    Currently I have setup a report, within which, has restricted key figures that will give the 'Period to date', 'Year to Date', and 'Last Year Year to Date' values for some RKFs, however, it would be very helpful if this report could be setup so that the user could choose whether the report provides:
    1. Values only through the last closed fiscal period
    or
    2. Values up to the current date.
    <b>For example</b> if we are in period 7 of 2006, the user could have the report show all values up to the last closed fiscal period, which in this case would be period 6 of 2006.
    Or the user could have the report show all the values up to the current date.
    Hopefully I have been clear,
    Thanks,
    Nick

    Nick,
        What is the problem you are facing? As San mentioned you can only report till Last Fiscal Period using Customer Exit Variables(Calculate Current Fiscal Period using Current Month and Fiscal Year Variant).
    Or as you mentioned you can create restricted Key Figures using Date or month (YTD etc)
    If i miss your requirement, please guide me.

  • Please help! Looking for script to insert current date on page.

    I currently use a Dreamweaver Extension that lets you insert
    current date and time on your web page.
    The problem is, I don't know Javascript and cannot edit the
    Javascript codes to "remove the time"
    I only need the current date that will change every day.
    Do you know where I can get this script, I goggled and got
    several but I'm looking for something authentic.
    Also is it possible to have your page validate when you use
    Javascript embedded in your HTML?
    Thanks everyone,
    Patrick

    JavaScript generates the date by using the clock on the
    computer of each
    visitor to your site. If a visitor's clock has the wrong
    date, your site
    will also display the wrong date.

    I don't know what you mean by "authentic". Date generation in
    JavaScript
    is one of the most basic features of the language, so if it
    works, it's
    "authentic".
    > Also is it possible to have your page validate when you
    use Javascript
    > embedded in your HTML?
    Yes, but you shouldn't embed JavaScript in XHTML.

    So mr. Powers are there people that use Javascript Date in
    their page?
    Would you recommend it?
    I could use PHP but I don't know PHP,
    How do I come up with the string in this format, say,
    Wednesday, October 29th, 2008 that will change to a new day
    according to the server time and date.
    Thanks so much for your help and I have two of your books! I

    So, while defining this P_DATE in top include, like,
    P_DATE type sy-datum value sy-datum---> syntax error

  • Acrobat 9 - how do you create a dynamic stamp to include the current date (java script)

    I have seen my question multiple places and times but the resolutions provided have not worked for me.
    I am running Acrobat 9 Pro, cannot run X or XI due to the use of ProSystem fx Engagement.
    I want to create what I thought would be a simple stamp. My initials and the current date. i.e. "crm 01/10/13".
    Simple right? I created a PDF of my initials. Now I just need the text field with the proper Java Script to insert the date, correct?
    I have tried opening "Dynamic.pdf" and copying and pasting the text field that includes the Java Script:
    " event.value = (new Date()).toString(); AFDate_FormatEx("h:MM tt, mmm dd, yyyy"); "
    The date does not update, it stays static.
    I have manually entered the Java Script.
    I have edited the Java Script to remove the "Ex".
    I have edited the Java Script to revise the "yyyy" to "yy".
    I have edited the Java Script to remove the " h:MM tt, " trying different formats to get "dd/mm/yy".
    I have selected "Use single-key accelerators to access tools" in Preferences/General.
    I have tried PDF files, PNG files. I have created the image files from Word and Excel.
    I am at my wits' end. Can someone PLEASE assist me to resolve what should be a simple issue (I hope).
    Thank you in advance.

    Thank you for your response.
    Your script works well, but I still have the same issue.  The date is remaining static to the system date when the stamp is created.  My initial idea was to create a pdf of my initials "crm" and then add the text field with the java script for the date behind my initials.  "crm" + (TEXT FIELD with JS).  I wanted 3 stamps, red, blue and green.  The colors correspond to specific processes in our workflow.
    Your script adds my initials as well as the date.
    My machine is running Windows 7.
    My stamps are located:
    C://Documents/Acrobat Stamps/...
    Acrobat templates:
    C://Program Files (x86)/Adobe/Acrobat 9.0/Acrobat/plug_ins/Annotations/Stamps/ENU/...
    I have no problem creating stamps, just a stamp that will use the current system date.  I HATE using the typewriter for my initials and the date.  I guess I can stamp my initials and then type the date...but what is the point?
    Do you have any further thoughts or suggestions?
    Thank you very much.

  • Current date in xslt mapping

    Hi,
    I've tried to get the current date in my xslt mapping.
    I've used the following xslt coding:
    <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:date="http://exslt.org/dates-and-times" extension-element-prefixes="date">
    <xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:variable name="now" select="current-date()"/>
    </xsl:template>
    </xsl:stylesheet>
    In stylus studio everything is OK and i retrieve the current date.
    When i import the xslt in the mapping tool and test the mapping i get the following error:
    javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: com.sap.engine.lib.xml.util.NestedException: Function with name 'current-date' not found in context library. at com.sap.engine.lib.jaxp.TransformerImpl.transform(TransformerImpl.java:251)
    While directly using the current date functionality within the message mapping everything is OK too.
    Does anyone know which date-functionality is used within the message mapping within the Integration Builder and/or wich mapping to be used in xslt for a working scenario?
    Thnx in advance!

    Ok thnx, these anwers where very helpfull for me to solve this problem.
    I've awarded points for all your answers.
    For anyone interested later on, I needed the date in my XSLT mapping in the following format ddMMMyy.
