Am saving a date record in reports, BUT having a little trouble on date picker filtering it.
That's what am using to save
and to filter reports.
- How can you set the Date Picker to a specific date eg 'Today's Date'?
- I don't think I've got that format correct for picker to filter report by my original date format.
Thanks!
Best format for setting Date Input value

Hello Adrian,
At a first view, the below is not exactly correct:
We must set the [Report1.Query] variable directly with [Date], using a SetVar action.
Maybe this is not especifically the "problem", but please, try the above, Adrian.
Hello again, Adrian,
On the other hand, maybe you need to place in the "[Report1.Query]" variable the date... but not an object. Maybe directly something like this:
Is there also a way to set the 'Date picker object' to a specific date (from a button)
Hello Adrian,
The point is that I am not sure about what data picker we are talking about, sorry... can you detail it a bit more?
sorry my fault David... 'Date input control'
Hello Adrian,
The input date is a bit particular. Certainly, we can do what you wanted, just with a code like the below one:
The above code set the date of a date input to 2018-12-14, tomorrow at this time. You can take a look at the "DateInput" sample. Also take a look at the "DateTime" sample.
Not only me (the Mozilla documentation refer it too) prefer to use something like the "DateInput" sample, that is, provide three Select controls for years, months and days, instead of deal with the date input particularities.
