Copy attributes in category set to a date field

Steven_Knoll

Is it possible to copy attributes contained in a category set to a Date Field in the same category? The screenshot below is an example of the desired outcome, specifically how “Date Field” was copied from the “Document Date” set attributes.  My initial attempts with CATACTION:COPY in WebReports have failed.

Untested and divided into multiple lines, however perhaps you want something like:

[ll_reptag_'12345' cataction:setvalue:'Date Category':'Date Field':
[ll_reptag_"
[ll_reptag_'12345' cat:'Date Category':set:'Document Date':Day:display /]
[ll_reptag_'12345' cat:'Date Category':set:'Document Date':Month:display /]
[ll_reptag_'12345' cat:'Date Category':set:'Document Date':Year:display /]
" todate:%d%B%Y /]
 /]

Is this Chris B.?

Great suggestion and very similar to what I've tried. I will report back with the outcome!

Thanks in advance.

Took some tinkering but I got it working by using a variable during display, creating a string, then copying the attribute. Thanks for the nudge!

Who is Chris B? The person who replied is none other than Chris Webster of OT :)

I don't want to call anyone out. Just an old friend from OT that was one of the best support engineers I had the pleasure to work with. Chris Webster has now entered that rolodex ;)

If Chris Webster doesn't know a thing then you're outta luck...
