Date Picker Input

The Date Picker Input provides a Calendar selection option.

Date Pickers may be displayed as a Full Calendar, or expanding from a text box with a calendar icon.

The Date Picker may be set to validate required. The value returned by a Date Picker will be typed as a DateTime for use with the Rule Engine, so any of the date manipulation for formatting functions may be used on it. When passed to fixtures, e.g. to update SQL or AD, it may be necessary to convert it to an appropriately formatted string or numeric value.

The DatePicker supports Minimum Date, Maximum Date, and Default Value data entry. These may be typed as a .NET parseable static date, but more commonly will be generated using templated Rule expressions.

All three values MUST start and end with square braces, and not be templated in the middle of the string. Example values include:

• [Today()]
• [AddTime(Today(), Days(-14))]
• [AddTime(Today(), "365.00:00:00")]
