Current Date

[rajua99]

Hello,

Is there any function that we can use to create current date Query Item  in Framework manager so that the customer can use that Query item in report studio instead of using Current date function in variables.

Thanks
Raju

The expression editor will show you CURRENT DATE, CURRENT TIME and CURRENT TIMESTAMP (These will translate to the RDBMS equivalent).
Older versions of the expression editor in Report Studio omit (bug) to show a tab (as you will see in FM) of possible #macro# functions and you will see there #macro# functions that provide a similar facility, various _add_.. macro functions and format controls etc.

Bear in mind, the ISO SQL for TIMESTAMPS/TIME provide for values with and without TIME ZONE. CURRENT TIME/TIMESTAMP are supposed to represent a value WITH a time zone (not all vendors support them) while LOCAL TIME/TIMESTAMP do not have a time zone.
