Dear all,
I would like to know if there is any way to put month and day numbers in documents prefix.
For example, if selected date is 03.12.2019 then prefix should be DOC/0312/00001+(1). I want to know how to get DD(03) and MM(12) and put them in prefix.
Thanks for advance!

Hello Jānis,
the easiest way to extract the part of the date is to use the platform's method Format like this

Prefix = Format(YourVariableContainingTheDate,"DF=ddMM")

Procedure OnSetNewNumber(StandardProcessing, Prefix)

Thanks, but how do I set date to variable, if date is selected by user?

Dear Jānis,

It depends on where the user is selecting the date. But usually you just add the event handler to the date control on the form and assign the selected date to your variable like this

YourVariableContainingTheDate = YourSelectedDate;

Thanks for big help Pawlo and Alex : )
