Hello,
I want to have a link to the short verison of SW-LastSavedDate in the upper row of the BOM.
When I link to property I choose SW-LastSavedDate and then set for short format with no time. The datum looks fine at first, but then when I close the "Link to property" window it jumps to Long format with time. I have the same link on the sheet format and there it works just fine.
Is anyone experiencing the same problem? I am using SW 2016.
Thanks,
Barbara
Hi Ruben,
The solution you sugest will be the last option to consider.
I would say this is a bug, because it works if I add a Note, but doesn't work in BOM. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Which version of SW are you using. I'm currious if this is still present in 2018.
Thanks.
Hi Ruben.
Do you experience the same issue in 2018? The format long/short is working on the drawing but not in BOM?
Thanks
No I don't, beacuse I decide to use manual input for date data string, did you try with "Property Tab Builder"?
Could you attach your templates? I want yo see how you make it.
Hi Ruben,
I will see if I can make it work via tab builder.
Thanks for the tip.
I will share with you my personal templates and tab builder files... they made on sw2018
I do one test (no changes at sytem windows)
I change International and long date give same values like short date
Those changes give me
Did you try this?
Hi Ruben,
I checked the tab builder but unfortunately there is no LastSavedDate option. I can select CheckedDate, DateCompleted, DrawnDate, MfgAppDate and QAAppDate. Daes anyone know what are MfgAppDate and QAAppDate?
Looks like we will have to manualy correct it after it is saved to excel or we will change the system settings... we will see.
Thank you for your time. I appreciate it very much.
I use $PRP:"SW-Short Date" and check system settings for this
Hi Igor,
unfortunatelly "short date" does not include time .
Oh, in this case, only as a workaround, change long form to short form in regional settings
Something like this?
Did you see if on sys windows date on control panel has short o large format?
