One of my customers needs to know how to use the date including year in Orchestration designer, the intrinsic %DATE%DATE only appears to use dd/mm and they need to include yyyy too.
Since this is as per design, I believe they have to go for a GRIP ?
Another query on this is, what calculation the NEXTYEAR intrinsic uses?
As per OD guide:
If you want scheduled contacts to occur at the correct date and time, ensure that your script
delays these contacts until that date and time and then queues the contacts appropriately. The
contacts can be delayed in the scripts in one of two ways:
• using a loop in conjunction with the intrinsics %DATE%DATE, %TIME%TIME, and
NEXTYEAR
• using a WAIT statement in conjunction with the intrinsic %INTEGER%WAITTIME
Does it check for the year on the contact to see if it is simply equal to the current year and then set the flag to YES, or does it check to see if the year on the contact is GREATER THAN the current year?
So if a contact comes in with the year as 2014 today, what would the NEXTYEAR intrinsic for that contact be set to?
