These are configuration formats for automatically assigning values to Date-type and Datetime-type Data Items. Fixed values, references to other Date-type/Datetime-type Data Items, and references to Process Start Date/System Time can be used to assign values to Date-type/Datetime-type Data Items. You can also specify values such as 30 minutes later, 7 days later, end of the month, etc., based on the referenced date/time.

A Fixed Date/Time in the Specified Format
| Format | Assigned Value in Date-type | Assigned Value in Datetime-type |
|---|---|---|
| 2020-03-14 23:45 | 2020-03-14 (2020-03) (03-47) (2020) Follows the subtype setting of the assignment destination |
2020-03-14 23:45 |
Process Start Datetime
| Format | Assigned Value |
|---|---|
| processInstanceStartDatetime | 2020-03-14 23:45 |
| processInstanceStartDatetime.addMinutes(30) | 2020-03-15 0:15 |
| processInstanceStartDatetime.addHours(2) | 2020-03-15 1:45:00 |
| processInstanceStartDatetime.addDays(3) | 2020-03-17 23:45 |
| processInstanceStartDatetime.addMonths(-4) | 2019-11-14 23:45 |
| processInstanceStartDatetime.addMonths(1).getFirstTimeInMonth() | 2020-04-01 0:00 |
| processInstanceStartDatetime.addMonths(1).getLastTimeInMonth() | 2020-04-30 23:59 |
| processInstanceStartDatetime.addDays(1).getFirstTimeInDate().addHours(9) | 2020-03-15 9:00 |
System clock
The day
| Format | Assigned Value in Date-type | Assigned Value in Datetime-type |
|---|---|---|
| #today | 2020-03-14 | 2020-03-14 00:00 |
| #today.addMonths(1) | 2020-04-14 | 2020-04-14 00:00 |
The time
| Format | Assigned Value |
|---|---|
| #now | 2020-03-14 23:45 |
| #now.addDays(-7) | 2020-03-07 23:45 |
| #now.addDays(1).getFirstTimeInDate().addHours(9) | 2020-03-15 9:00 |
Date/Datetime Data Item
| Format | Assigned Value |
|---|---|
| #q_datetime | 2020-04-01 9:00 |
| #q_datetime.addHours(9) | 2020-04-01 18:00 |
Notes
- Date-type(Y/M/D) and Datetime-type can be assigned interchangeably
- E.g. "Date-type (Y/M/D): 2020-03-14" => "Datetime-type：2020-03-14 00:00"
- (Different from Datetime type) Date type does not hold time/minute information
- Works at '23:59' of the day when assigned to Deadline, and at 00:00 when assigned to Timer Intermediate Event
- If you do not set anything as the format settings, a blank will be assigned (Data will be deleted)
- Also works with an old format using the data definition number (data ['9']) instead of the field name (q_datetime)
