Example Use:
- If you are getting a date from an external integration, the date format may be stored differently in that external app and you'll need to convert it to a format used in Hornbill.
- If you only require the date and not the time you would convert the date/time to Y-m-d
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.
