Using Duration in a formula for an end date

[Currently_Jason]

Hi Everyone,

I have a start date field and a duration type field and I’m trying to create an end date with a formula
DATEADD({ :gear: Appointment Start Date},{Duration},‘minutes’)

This doesn’t seem to do anything i.e. the end date is the same as the start.

Any ideas?

Cheers

Duration fields (versus number fields) store their values as seconds, not minutes, so I would expect to see

DATEADD({:gear: Appointment Start Date},{Duration},'seconds')

However, that does not explain why you are not seeing a different date.

Are both of your fields set to show time as well as date?

Are both fields formatted with the same timezone setting?

Screen captures could also help in figuring out this issue.
