Another day, another Functoid was added to the package. I updated it again with a new functoid: Add Days to Date Functoid Functoid, which is now part of the BizTalk Mapper Extensions UtilityPack project available for BizTalk Server 2020.

Add Days to Date Functoid

This function allows you to add days to one date in which you can specify the format of the input date.

  • This functoid requires three input parameters:
    • The first input is the date where we want to add the desired days.
    • The second input is the number of days to be added.
    • The third input is the format of the input date.
    • Examples:
      • Inputs: "2024-03-03", 10, "yyyy-MM-dd" – Output: “2024-03-13“.
      • Inputs: "03/03/2024", 5, "MM/dd/yyyy" – Output: “03/08/2024“.
