Date manipulation

Hello, 

 

I need a help to add a day on the date. Please refer attached doc, also see the example below 

 

The scenario is when [DISCONNECTION_DATE] is null, I want to be populated with [CONNECT_DATE] +  1 day

if isnull([disconnection_date]) then datetimeadd([connect_date],1,"days") else [disconnection_date] endif (in formula tool - modifying [disconnection_date])

 

note - you'll need both fields to be dates to do that.

@apathetichell How can you do this with string data type?

The attached shows you the fastest way to get there - but you should practice with the date/time tool and watch the video on date/time here:
