Is it possible to get the last 2 digits of the creation date (year) e.g. 20 for 2020 19 for 2019.


This is to use in a unique reference field (first 2 letters of name + “-” + last two letters of creation year + “-” + Auto ref number)


I currently have:

UPPER( LEFT(Created By,2)) & “-” & ( YEAR(CREATED_TIME()) & “-” & {Project Ref}

Which gives me:

E.g. AA-2020-101


Where do I insert the RIGHT(XX,2)?


I’ve tried the following but with a returned #error!:

UPPER( LEFT(Created By,2)) & “-” & RIGHT( ( YEAR(CREATED_TIME()),2) & “-” & {Project Ref}

Try using this to get the last 2 digits of the year:

MOD(YEAR(CREATED_TIME()), 100)


Perfect! thanks so much @Rey_Crisostomo
