Date Validation

Hi.

Try this JavaScript as a Validation script in the end date field:

var startDat = new Date(this.getField("start").value);
var endDat = new Date(event.target.value);
var nStartDat = startDat.getTime();
var nEndDat = endDat.getTime();
var nMilliResult = (nEndDat - nStartDat) * 1;
if (nMilliResult > 31556952000) {
    app.alert("End Date cannot be more than 12 months from the start date.");
    event.rc = false;
} else {
    console.clear();
    console.show();
    console.println("Difference is less than a year");
}

You should remove the else statement after testing.

Not quite what I'm looking for....

Hi Sam Orchard,

Did you try the Validate tab in the property dialog?

You can access the same by

1. Right clicking the desired field.

2. Click "Properties"

3. Go to "Validate" tab.

You can  perform the validation in this tab.You can run a custom validation script here to suit your needs.

You can also refer to the forum post for more details around the javascript validations   Date validation
