Question:
Is there a way to use the various jnVariables found in
this jnVariables document in Global Expressions? I see you have variables for things like previous business day and the likes.
Answer:
Yes! Since most of the jnVariables are date-based, we'll use one of the date-based variables to show you how to format it:
CDate("jn_PreviousBusinessDayMMDDYY")
jn_PreviousBusinessDayMMDDYY is a special keyword that always returns the previous business date. You can use it anywhere. As a matter of fact, ANY of the keywords in the URL below can be used in Expressions (which can then be applied to parameters). Each keyword gives a sample of the code programmed in it. It's just an example and for previous business day, we execute different code depending on the day of the week.
