Display value in screen with SDML tags

[neha_mahanty]

Hi All,

I want to display the last transmit date and time in the Syclo Agentry screen, ie, suppose I login in the Agentry client after 2 days then it should display the date and time I had last synchronized my application. when transmitting again this should replace with the latest syncronization time.

Can I do this with the help of SDML tags like <<lastupdate>> ?

Also SDML is not used in rules, as it is only used on the server side, while rules are used on client side.

Hence Please guide how do I display the last transmit time in the screen.

Thanks and Regards

Neha,

You are correct, SDML can not be used within the application, they are only used on backend steps.

What you can do is add a new datetime field into your Main object called something like "Lasttransmit"  then on your transmit actions, add a transaction that will update that field to the current date-time.  You can do this by using the "DATE_AND_TIME" function within the rules, by not giving it a parameters it will pull the current device date\time.
