DateTime format not working as expected
Hi All,
In the UI, I set DateTime format as "2 days 5 hours ago" format. But the value displaying is not valid.
Ex: I gave date as 20100101, but it is showing "16 years ago" in the UI
Expected: 16 years 4 days ago
Also tried giving 20231201, UI shows 2 years 1 month ago
Expected: 2 years 1 month 4 days ago
Thanks,
Amulya G

@AmulyaG17570845 The Ui control which you are giving 2 days, 5 Hours ago pega is considering only the months and years if the difference of years is >1, Since, you told that the date is configured in DT, add an extra line and store the result of the expression in a property and display the value in the UI for you scenario, this can be achieved by using an function. the detailed implementation of the function is given in the below doc Make sure that you are passing only the date values in the expression as inputs. if there are any changes please free to reach out. Thanks in advance
