Title: Today's Date - Function
Post by: damienm on 24 Oct 2008 09:02:31 PM
Dear All,
This seems simple to me but cannot find a solution, I need to create a field in my model that displays today's date, I want then to publish it in the package so I will be able to filter and compare aganist it, but tired a few functions but keeping an error message, is this something I can do in framework manager or should I do it in report studio, if so what function can I use?  I want something like the function in Excel Now().

Just look in the standard Cognos functions/expressions. There is a Current_Date expression available..
