I am using RTC 6.0.2
i am writing a script to update one date filed from other date fields, and its not working, But when i use the same script to populate it in a string attribute it works
below is my code

var BetaReleaseDate = '';

var ReplannedReleaseDate = '';

var CurrentBetaReleaseDate = '';

BetaReleaseDate = dojo.date.stamp.fromISOString(workItem.getValue('com.ibm.team.workitem.attribute.BetaReleaseDate')); ReplannedReleaseDate = dojo.date.stamp.fromISOString(workItem.getValue('com.ibm.team.workitem.attribute.RePlannedSwBetaReleaseDate')); //CurrentBetaReleaseDate = dojo.date.stamp.fromISOString(workItem.getValue('com.ibm.team.workitem.attribute.CurrentBetaReleaseDate'));
if (BetaReleaseDate != null && ReplannedReleaseDate != null ) { return ReplannedReleaseDate; } else if(BetaReleaseDate != null){

  • Timestamp as an ISO-8601 standard string. Use
    dojo.date.stamp to convert a Javascript
    Date object to and from an ISO-8601 string. When converting a
    Date object to a string set the
    milliseconds and the
    zulu options to true.
    • To convert the value of a timestamp attribute with the id attributeId to a Date object use:
      var date= dojo.date.stamp.fromISOString(workItem.getValue(attributeId));
      					
    • To convert a Date object to an ISO-8601 string use:
      var string= dojo.date.stamp.toISOString(date, {milliseconds:true, zulu:true});
      					




you have to convert it back to an iso string using dojo.date.stamp.toISOString before you return it.
