| Ret_Val | String | Output string in accordance with the international format (ISO 8601). Example: `2019-01-22 14:06:51.524621000` |
The block reads a date of data type DTL and converts the individual components of the date (year, month, day, hour…) into a character string and outputs it in international format (ISO 8601). The separator between the components of the date is variable.
At the input parameter separator, you specify the separator between the components of the date, at seperatorDateAndTime you specify the separator between the date and the time.
separator = - - outString = 2016-03-16… (default)
separator = / - outString = 2016/03/16…
separatorDateAndTime = - outString = 2016-03-16 12:45… (default)
separatorDateAndTime = T - outString = 2016/03/16T12:45…
