Maximo Date Format Conversion Using Automation Scripts

We can convert the normal date format to Maximo date format (yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.ffffff) using Automation Script.

Script Language: javascript

load("nashorn:mozilla_compat.js");
importPackage(Packages.java.text);

erData.breakData();
var actualDate = erData.getCurrentData("ACTUALDATE");
print("INPUT : " +actualDate);

var inputFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss a");
var outputFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
var dateParse = inputFormat.parse(actualDate);
var maximoDate = (outputFormat.format(dateParse)).replace(" ", "T") +"+05:30";
print("OUTPUT : " +maximoDate);

erData.setCurrentData("ACTUALDATE", maximoDate);

Output:

INPUT : 4/20/2021 03:30:52 PM
OUTPUT : 2021-04-20T15:30:52+08:00

Setting Current Date in XSL for Maximo Integration

During Maximo integration there is need to transform XML from Maximo XML format to External System(eg Oracle) XML format. There we can use the XSL mapping in Maximo. Maximo converts the XML to destination XML format using XSL language and vice versa. During that time, if there is need to set the current date in the XSL format see the below code spinet.
