Combining Mapping Functions in Process Builder

udeleng

I have a DQL Write activity where I'm trying to update an object name by concatenating the values from three attributes. The concatenation works, except for the part where one of those attributes is a date. Instead of getting a date such as 2/20/2011, I get a long value. I noticed there a "Date to String" function, but I wasn't able to combine it with the concat function. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I might approach this problem?

1 -------------------------------> |

2 -------------------------------> | concat --------> 4

3 -------------------------------> |

where:

1 == String

2 == String

3 == Date

4 == String

Hi!

It seems to me, you can't do that by just one Activity. The result of the Date To String (or String To Date) cann't be added as input for another function.

You will need to add one additional Process Data Mapping Activity after DQL. So, in first DQL Write Activity you will get 1 and 2 strings and convert date by Date To String function and save the result in the third string. In the next Activity you can concatenate all 3 strings.
