Available In: Docs Made Easy Basic and Pro



Parameter Requirement : None


Parameter Description : The Date Format parameter in Docs Made Easy allows you to display Salesforce date fields in a variety of regional or stylistic formats within your Word templates. This ensures that dates are presented in a clear, readable, and context-appropriate manner, based on your audience or business standards.



By applying the \@ switch, you can customize the output format of any date field using a combination of supported date specifiers.
