Between 2 date validation

Hi, is it possible to set a date validation to be 2 months before current date?

For example, today is 14 Mar 2018. I can select any date between 14 Jan 2018 to 14 Mar 2018. If I choose 12 Jan 2018, I will get a error message.

Hi,


You can modify an Edit-Validate rule of that property to achieve this behavior.


Here's the sample code, which throws a validation error if the entered Date is 60 days earlier than today's date.  I have saved as 'IsFutureDate' edit validate rule into a different ruleset with a different name and written this code. 


if (theValue.trim().length() == 0) {


 return false;


}


java.util.Date  theDate = tools.getDateTimeUtils().parseDateTimeString(theValue);


java.util.Date newDate= new java.util.Date();


System.out.println(newDate);


long duration  = newDate.getTime() - theDate.getTime();


long diffDays=duration/(60 * 60 * 1000*24);


if(diffDays>60){


  theProperty.addMessage("OMG Y U No Enetering right input??");


return false;


}


else


  return true;


 


 


I attached the image of the error received. 


 


You can also add your custom error message by


1. Defining validate rule for this date property and reference the edit validate rule we have created here.


2. you can use 'property-validate' method in post-processing activity and provide the required property and customized message.
