Hi,

 

 

I'm unclear your requirement. If you run the workspace at July 31, for example, what date string should be created?

Create an attribute for date with constant value in attribute creator instad of using time stamper.

Takashi, I am running a data that is June and I run the FME on July 1, So when I run it displays results as with July date because I have TimeStamper, but I would like it to display June.

 

 

Pratap, I am bit confused with how attribute creator can give me previous month date.  Since I am very new to FME , I am still learning.

 

 

Thank you
