Today I placed a default value for a date User Parameter as
@DateTimeFormat(@DateTimeAdd(@DateTimeNow(),-14,'day'),'%Y%m%d')

essentially the date widget in FME flow would go back 2 weeks, this used to work fine….
But alas, in 2026 it is now returning something wild

Where is this highlight in Change logs? I read something about ‘better support for SQL date’… but nothing about Date\Time functions
Am I supposed to use this now ?

Here is the help documentation https://docs.safe.com/fme/2026.1/html/FME-Form-Documentation/FME-Form/!Transformer_Parameters/Date-Time-Functions.htm
When we upgrade transformers, will the @DateTimeNow() functions get transformed into @CurrentDateTime ?
Also the @DateTImeAdd is this going to be converted to @AddDateTime
I can see the syntax
@AddDateTime(<datetime>,<interval>)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601#Durations
So this
@DateTimeFormat(@DateTimeAdd(@DateTimeNow(),-14,'day'),'%Y%m%d')
has become
@DateTimeFormat(@AddDateTime(@CurrentDateTime(),P-14D),'%Y%m%d')
The above didn’t help in Flow workspace app
