I am trying in D365 to create a dynamic date format, that is based on the preferences of the user. There is a field "Date, time, and number format" and based on the value of this field, the date format has to be changed. The field on the SSRS report is for some other purposes string, created by some values and one date field, so I would like to ask, if there is any function, that would in a code change the date format based on the user's preferences.
Many thanks for any advice

I am trying to convert a field that contains strings such as 202008, 202108 to a date field. I have tried the date() function, clicking on the measure and converting it to a date. I have also tried DATE(LEFT([Month],4)+"-"+RIGHT([Month],2)+"-01") but that will only return the year.
Using Tableau Desktop 2021.1, when I change the data type from String to Date, Tableau translates the strings to 8/1/2020 and 8/1/2021. If you are using an earlier version of Desktop, it is possible that this functionality is not present.
However, if changing the data type isn't working for you, the calculated field code you provided should actually work, you just need to change the date part from Year to Month/Day/Year using the Custom date part option.
I have created daily dashboard which shows the data for single date selected from DATE PARAMETER (with ALL value). Which is OK for me that I can see the data for any date I want.
But the problem is when I open my dashboard it is showing data for date which I selected in date parameter while publishing the Dashboard to Server/Online and Instead of that I want set it default to Yesterday.
i.e. when I open my dashboard first time it should show yesterday's data and also there should option to change date as well to see another date data.
Can we achieve this using DATE PARAMETER (with ALL values)? If it is not possible then is there any other way?
Please Help!
Use a relative date filter instead of a parameter. Just be sure to save and publish the workbook with Yesterday as the relative date value.
1, Create a calculation field d_yesterday, formula is TODAY()-1
2, Create a parameter, data type is Date, value when workbook opens set to d_yesterday
3, use the Date parameter in other calculations fields, or insert parameter into custom SQL query.
I'm using VS2017 and trying to convert my reports from Delphi to Asp.Net, but the problem with some until this point that My users can change their sort from the GUI and I need to dynamically adjust the sort in code to match their selection.
To do this I use the following code:
ReportDocument.DataDefinition.Groups[i].ConditionField = ReportDocument.Database.Tables[CrystalReportDatasource].Fields[cField];
However if cField is aDateField and the original is a StringField group I receive the following exception:
The group options for a date, time or date-time condition field must be a date
group options object crystal reports" when I try and excute the above
statement.
Any idea how to fix that?
When you group on a date, Crystal needs to know what type of date grouping you wish to apply (e.g. Every Day, week, or Month...).
You need to take care of that aspect in code or simply create a String formula to convert the date column to a string and Group on that formula instead of on the raw date column.
I selected tomorrow's date (8/21/2014) from the data picker field of a Google Form submission, and the value "41872" is returned in the spreadsheet.
What format is this date format?
I need to convert this date format to the MM/dd/yyyy format using script, as formatting the Date column using the Format menu only updates the rows that are currently available...not the new rows that will be there when new form submissions come in.
How do I make this conversion?
I am not sure, but your issue seems to be very basic. Its about the cell formatting as like we do in Ms Excel.
For Google spreadsheet inorder to format a cell or a range,
1. Select the Range
2. On menu, Go To Format->Number->Date (and then select the required format)
Does this works?
I had the same confusion. All you need to do is just change the format from the menu Format->Number->Date & Time
I have a problem displaying dates in rdlc reports using C#, the date came from sql server is DateTime type i.e 2013-06-25 02:30:00.000, but when displayed on report it formats according to local PC regional settings. I can't use CDate() to format it the way I want because it returns error, I tried to set Format property of the textBox to dd/MM/yyyy but nothing happened. It seems, it dealt with the date value as string.
How can I bypass the regional settings and let report viewer to deal with it as date not string?
I don't think your problem has anything to do with your regional settings, it sounds like the report doesn't understand that the date field is actually a date.
Make sure that the date field in the dataset is of type System.DateTime
