Write result of calculation into a field

[nestorwagner]

Hi everyone,

I have two date fields -- reg and deadline. I want to store in the deadline field the following: reg + 7 days.

Does anyone know the java script to be inserted in the submission form (in the footer)?

In the alternative, does anyone know the script to write in the deadline field the following: today() + 7 days

Thank you!!

In your case you can change it to:

function f_date(){

var v_currentDate=new Date();

v_currentDate.setDate(v_currentDate.getDate() +7);

var v_assignDate = (v_currentDate.getMonth() + 1) + "/" + v_currentDate.getDate() + "/" + (v_currentDate.getFullYear());

alert(v_assignDate);

document.getElementsByName('ID')[0].value = v_assignDate;

}

f_date();

Change the ID with your field ID where you want to save your deadline date. If you cannot get the ID give me the link to help you on that

Hi @nestorwagner,

 

Good news! Calculated values in submission form is now a standard feature of Caspio. You do not have to add custom coding to achieve it.

You may check this link for reference: https://howto.caspio.com/datapages/datapage-components/calculated-values/
