Get the difference between 2 DateTimes
Question
Hi, 


What is the best method in Outsystems to calculate the difference between 2 DateTimes? Like the C# timespan for example. I need to know if the difference between 2 DateTimes is larger then a certain Integer (or an other calculated DateTime if that works better).  


I noticed that you can't subtract 2 DateTimes from each other nor can I convert the DateTime to an Integer type (or any other Data Type except String that gives me a very strange format). 


Kind regards,

Vincent

Hi Vicent,


You have this functions:


All of them returns Integer type.

It's this that you need?

Hope this can help you.

Ricardo

I misread the explanation of DiffSeconds. I thought it would only use the time portion of a DateTime (like DiffDays does by only using the Date portion) but it does what I need (up until a very short timeframe but it within my use limits for now). 

Thanks for the suggestions :)
