Convert String to Date and Perform Calculation

jagjit_singh

Hi All,

 

I have tried all the string to date tools in Alteryx which formats the date to dd/mm/yyyy but when i perform a calculation like  

DateTimeAdd([Entry Date],-1,"days") = [Exit Date] it does not work. Any ideas?

 

 

 

TENANT_NUMB Entry Date Old Property New Property Exit Date
10581 2013/12/02 1069 1080 2013/12/01
10581 2014/02/26 1069 3869 2013/12/01
10581 2013/12/02 1080 1080 2014/02/25
10581 2014/02/26 1080 3869 2014/02/25

 

 

Thanks

Jag

Got it, i had to convert the datatype to date/time and it worked.
