can we format Date object to MM/DD/YYYY via format.parse method?

What do you mean by set the Date format? Set the format of what?

I think he means the date format as in if it's MM/DD/YYYY or DD/MM/YYYY etc? i think it's usually tied to preferences? (user/company?)

@Sandii format of a JS Date Object

I would not recommend not trying to do that with js date object, just use moment or some other date js library of your chosing.

yes, but is that possible with parse?

I am not a fan of the

N/format

module at all, I would personally just use

moment().format()

thanks

To do it very simply in moment would be

moment(yourDate, oldFormat).format(newFormat)

N/format has a very specific purpose, to changes values back and forth between their text representation in the current netsuite account

@Ali this is what I'm using with moment, just load it as a library in your define/function like you load the N/modules and you're good to go https://momentjs.com/docs/#/parsing/string-format/ otherwise if you use it just with format.format or format.parse it's user settings - usually gets in the way in TBA and restlets too - just use moment to change the defined string input to a date object, then before you set the value in the record, use the standard NS format module and it'll work most of the time!
