[iReport substring] How to get last 2 digit of the year?

[chuonchuonot102]

Hi everyone,

Could you please help me following issue?

I have a date which has format dd/MM/yyyy.

I'd like to get 2 last digit of the year.

For example: input: 04/08/2021 => output: 21

I've tried 2 options as below but it still show error as attached screenshot.

Not that: net.myDomain.tools.Ft.formatDate($F{signDate},"dd/MM/yyyy") is correct method that using in my project.

net.myDomain.tools.Ft.formatDate($F{signDate},"dd/MM/yyyy")).toString().subStr(8,9)

net.myDomain.tools.Ft.formatDate($F{signDate},"dd/MM/yyyy")).toString().subString(8,9)

Do you have any idea?

Thanks!

Morning,

2 ways you can try. 1 is to change the formatting of the date in the textfield as per attached picture. 2 is try the following - $F{signDate}.substring($F{signDate}.length() - 2)
