Dear Team,
I am not able to do substration between two dates.. Getting error.
Please help. Work flow attached
@Mohini79 Your workflow has input linked to a file on your desktop. Can't test it with data. However I do see that you have strings for dates, so basically your formula is trying to subtract a string from a string. You need to convert the fields to dates (in YYYY-MM-DD format) and then do this formula DateTimeDiff(dt1,dt2,u) where "u" would be "days".
DateTimeDiff([Date Start],[Date End],"days")
Try DateTimeDiff([Start Date],[End Date],"days")
You can replace "days" with the unit that you are looking for!
Hi,
Getting attached error
@Mohini79 - - see this sample. I made up dates, as I dont know what yours look like but the DateTime Tools can figure out pretty much anything.
Another way:
Date excel attached.
Getting below error
ConvError: Select (8): End Date: 07-jan-202 is not a valid Date
@Mohini79
The date isn't in the standard format (YYYY-MM-DD), you should change it before doing the subtraction.
As you see in the syntax below .. First, changing the date format, then doing the operation.
You can also change the unit in DateTimeDiff([End Date], [Start Date], "day") as you want, day or year.
I hope that helped you.
You can find here anything about Date Time Functions and how to use them

Thats correct - you need to convert your text values into date values to be able to do any date functions - please see attached.
