Date & Time automation templates

Converts a datetime value into a formatted text string using the Robomotion DateTime package. Demonstrates standard and custom output layouts for logging, filenames, and reports.

Parses a text string like "2025-05-01 09:30:00" into a true datetime value the flow can work with. Shows how to declare an input layout so downstream nodes can format or compare the date.

Calculates how many days you have been alive by subtracting your birthday from today. Uses DateTime Now, Subtract, and a Function node to produce a clean day count.

Reads the local date and time and formats it as a long time string (HH:mm:ss). Displays the result in an information dialog so you can verify the system clock at a glance.

Computes the first business day of next month, skipping weekends. Useful for scheduling invoices, reports, or reminders that must fire on a working day.

Walks backwards from today to find the previous working day, handling weekends through conditional logic. A building block for backdated reports or audits.
