Formula for day of the year

[SteelsmithHaus]

I’m probably missing something, but how do I get the current day of the year? For instance, we have WEEKNUM(TODAY()), but not DAYNUM(TODAY())?

I can do year(today()), and week(today() but when I do day(today()) it shows the day of the month and not the year. Thanks!

Example: Jan 1st 2021 is day 1, etc.

Easiest way that comes to mind:

DATETIME_FORMAT(NOW(),"DDD")

I wanted record grouped by the date the record was created.

Hi @Dominik_Bosnjak -- thanks for this.

Curious though why I can't take the product of this formula and use it in a percentage formula. 

For example, if I take your fomule and divide by 365, I get an error:

DATETIME_FORMAT(NOW(),"DDD")/365

What am I doing wrong? 

Please and thank you 🙏
