Chris,

This can be done a couple ways...

Code: Select all

<setVariable label="Set JulDate"      name="JulDate"      value="${ CurrentDate( 'yyDDD' ) }"     version="1.0" />

... will give you the current date in Julian Format.

Code: Select all

<timestamp version="1.0">
	<format outputVariable="JulDate" pattern="yyDDD" dayOfMonth="+14" />
</timestamp>

... will give you the date of today plus 14 days in Julian Format
