How can I change the date format in an email delivery (field from additional data)

Question

Hi,

I would like to change the date format in my email delivery. How can I do that?

It is a personalisation field from Additional Data. Now it is displayed as DD/MM/YYYY. I would like to change this to DD-MM-YYYY or dd-MMMM-YYYY (so in Dutch: 2 mei 2018). And are other languages also supported?

Same question for using an amount: I would like to display it in Dutch (decimal separator comma, thousands separator is a dot or none.

How can I apply that on a personalisation field?

Kind regards,

Björn

Hi Bjorn,

For the date you can use formatDate function in your html. Not sure if there is an equivalent in Dutch but I knew it's working for English and French.

For the number, ACS is not that custom so the approach is to convert the fields as string befor your delivery.

Thanks

David
