===Options (Methods)===
Use the utility options from the [[Cloud Automation]] in your business processes. The following options are now available for you to use:
 
:* '''Current Day'''
:: Retrieves the current day of the week and stores it in a variable which can be used in other BPM Operations or decisions
:* '''Date Formatter'''
:: Lets you take the format of one date and convert it to another format. This is stored in a variable which can then be used in other BPM Operations. A common example is given in the image opposite but if you prefer a different format, the following reference will be useful: [http://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php '''Date Format Characters''']. This reference outlines the list of characters that can be used when defining your output format.
:* '''Get Next Date'''
:: Lets you set a day of the week and the operation will return the date that this day falls on.  This is stored in a variable which can then be used in other BPM Operation
:* '''Get Timestamp'''
:: Lets you return a timestamp which is x days, hours, minutes before or after an existing timestamp.  This is useful for generating a future date / time to use in other business process operations.
:* '''Password Generator'''
:: A password generator tool to provide temporary passwords for users.
