Info

Datameer always uses the following format:

Three character month abbreviation (space) two digit day (comma)(space) four digit year (space) two digit hour (colon) two digit minute (colon) two digit second (space) two character meridiem notation.

(e.g., 12.01.2012 gets transferred to Jan 12, 2012 12:00:00 AM)

When selecting a pattern, you select the way the data gets parsed (your input format, this can be connected to your systems representation of dates and times).

Additional Information

Make Date Functions Aware of Daylight Savings Time

To make a function aware of daylight savings time (DST) use ADDTODATE in order to add or subtract time from a date.

Example

No Format
=EXPAND_DATE_RANGE(ADDTODATE(TODAY();"-5000d");TODAY();1d)

This is also recommended when working with Partitioned Data and Advanced Partition Filter.

Example

In order to catch the last seven days of the previous month in a workbook using a formula that repeats daylight savings time.

No Format
$partition < ENDOFMONTH(STARTOFMONTH(ADDTODATE(TODAY();"-1M"))) && $partition >= ENDOFMONTH(STARTOFMONTH(ADDTODATE(TODAY();"-1M")))-7d
