makeweekdate(1999,6) returns 1999-02-08
MakeTime(hh [ , mm [ , ss [ .fff ] ] ] )
Returns a time calculated from the hour hh, the minute mm the second ss with a fraction fff down to a millisecond.
If no minute is stated, 00 is assumed.
If no second is stated, 00 is assumed.
If no fraction of a second is stated, 000 is assumed.
Examples:
maketime( 22 ) returns 22-00-00
maketime( 22, 17 ) returns 22-17-00
maketime( 22, 17, 52 ) returns 22-17-52
AddMonths(startdate, n , [ , mode] )
Returns the date occurring n months after startdate or, if n is negative, the date occurring n months before
startdate.
By specifying a mode (0 if omitted) the date is set to either the unmodified day of the specified month
(mode=0) or the calculated day as derived from the end of the month (mode=1).
Examples:
addmonths ('2003-01-29',3) returns '2003-04-29'
addmonths ('2003-01-29',3,0) returns '2003-04-29'
addmonths ('2003-01-29',3,1) returns '2003-04-28'
addmonths ('2003-01-29',1,0) returns '2003-02-28'
addmonths ('2003-01-29',1,1) returns '2003-02-26'
addmonths ('2003-02-28',1,0) returns '2003-03-28'
addmonths ('2003-02-28',1,1) returns '2003-03-31'
YearToDate(date [ , yearoffset [ , firstmonth [ , todaydate] ] ])
Returns true if a date falls within the year to date, else false. If none of the optional parameters are used, the
year to date means any date within one calender year from January 1 up to and including the date of the last
script execution.
By specifying a yearoffset (0 if omitted), the function can be transposed to return true for the same period in
another year. A negative yearoffset indicate previous years while a positive one indicates coming years. Last
year to date is achieved by specifying yearoffset = -1.
By specifying a firstmonth between 1 and 12 (1 if omitted) the beginning of the year may be moved forward
to the first day of any month. If you e.g. want to work with a fiscal year beginning on May 1, specify firstmonth
= 5.
By specifying a todaydate (timestamp of the last script execution if omitted) it is possible to move the day
used as the upper boundary of the period.
Examples:
Assume last reload time = 1999-11-18
yeartodate( '1998-11-18') returns false
yeartodate( '1999-02-01') returns true
yeartodate( '1999-11-18') returns true
yeartodate( '1999-11-19') returns false
yeartodate( '1998-11-18', -1) returns true
yeartodate( '1999-11-18', -1) returns false
