ROUND({trandate} - {today}, 0)
formula is not returning the expected result.
The issue might be due to the way NetSuite handles date subtraction. When subtracting two dates, the result is a decimal number representing the difference in days. The decimal part might be due to the time difference. When you use the ROUND
function, it rounds this decimal number to the nearest whole number, which might not be what you expect.
One solution suggested in the threads is to use the TO_DAYS
function. This function converts a date to a number, which represents the number of days from year 0 to the given date. So, the formula would be TO_DAYS({today}) - TO_DAYS({trandate})
. This will give you the difference in days as a whole number.
Another suggestion is to use the CEILING
function instead of ROUND
. The CEILING
function rounds a number up to the nearest whole number. So, if the difference between the two dates is 5.6 days, CEILING
will return 6, which might be the result you expect.
Please note that the formula type should be set to Formula(Numeric)
as the result of subtracting two dates is a number.
