Setting a text field to display conditionally based on age.

I have a text field in a jasperreport that I want to display if the animal is over 7.  

I created a variable (boolean) that was set to the expression

YEAR(TODAY())-YEAR($F{patient.entity.datefBirth})>7

I also tried

YEARS($F{patient.entity.datefBirth}, Today())>7

both still return false even when the patient is 15 on file.

​$P{dataSource}.getExpressionDataSource("reminder:getReminders(openvpms:get(.,'patient.entity'), date:add(date:today(),'-1d'),date:now())")

 

I additionally noted that if I tried to rpelace the date:now() function with $F{startTime} the function returned a jxpath error which is strange considering the getReminders function takes a java.util.Date as the param which is what that variable is

You have a typo in your field name. It should be:

$F{patient.entity.dateOfBirth}

The easiest way to diagnose these problems is to create a field for each part of the expression you are having trouble with i.e. create a field for each of:

  • $F{patient.entity.datefBirth}

  • YEAR(TODAY())

  • YEAR($F{patient.entity.datefBirth})

The first will display null indicating there is a problem with that field

Any ideas on the other issue with the reminder report data source and filtering it based on startTime as opposed to the current date

Try:

​$P{dataSource}.getExpressionDataSource("reminder:getReminders(openvpms:get(.,'patient.entity'), date:add(date:today(),'-1d'),openvpms:get(.,'startTime'))")

or:

​$P{dataSource}.getExpressionDataSource("reminder:getReminders(openvpms:get(.,'patient.entity'), date:add(date:today(),'-1d'),$F.startTime")

The $F. and $P. prefixes allows JasperReport fields and parameters to be exposed to jxpath functions.
