in report writer how to date to dd/mm/yyyy

[clynn]

We use Jaspersoft as the report writer for our Sumtotal LMS.  Here's how I was able to create a calculated field to have the leading zeros in the result (it is not available in the web client (my only option) to covert to that format and have the leading zeros)

 

What I did to get the leading zeros in my calculated attempt end date field: Concatenate(IF(MonthNumber("AttemptEndDt") < 10, '0', ''), MonthNumber("AttemptEndDt"), '/', IF(DayNumber("AttemptEndDt") < 10, '0', ''), DayNumber("AttemptEndDt"), '/', Year("AttemptEndDt"))

If "AttemptEndDt" is of type Date, following should also do.

DATEFORMAT($V{AttemptEndDt},"yyyy/MM/dd")
