337 views 3 August 15, 2020 admin

Do you need to calculate the number of days between two dates? Now this is something that is very easy and pleasant to do.

To get started, we are going to create a Form with two date fields (Check In and Check Out), a number field (Number of days) and a submit button. Your form should looks like this screenshot:

1. Name: Calculate days between dates
2. Click “Add condition” > Check In is present
3. Click “Add condition” > Check Out is present
4. Click “Add action” > Evaluate
5. Formula: differenceInDays({{date_2}}, {{date_1}})
6. Set Result to Field: Number of Days.

That’s all!

Now your form should look like this:
