Can i format seconds to dd:hh:mm:ss format

Hi All,

I have a dimension which returns data in seconds.
But I need to display in dd:hh:mm:ss format and the data type should be Date or Time. Does this formating is possible in Webi?

If yes… please guide me

Hi,

Yes, it’s possible to display number of seconds in the required format. However, the data type will be string and not the date or time.

use ToNumber to convert to number and then convert seconds to the desired format using floo and mod. This thread should provide sufficient guidance:

On a more general note, try and use the forum search prior to posting a new question :wink:
