Auto-Names offer two types of date options: static (%D1, %D2) and real-time (<D1>, <D2>). When static date options are used, dates are stored in the folder Auto-Name using the regional settings of the workstation that created the folder. These dates are displayed in the same format regardless of the regional settings on the workstation that retrieves the folder, which may make date formats appear inconsistent when folders are created and viewed from workstations with different regional formats. Because these dates are stored as text strings, they cannot be used to sort folders chronologically by dates in the Auto-Name.

If dates in Auto-Names should be displayed using the regional settings of the workstation that retrieves the folder, use the real-time date options. Real-time date options can also be used to sort folders chronologically by Auto-Name.

Note:

The OnBase Client always appends a leading zero to single-digit days and months, even when it retrieves folders configured with real-time date options. If Auto-Names use the static date options (%D1), then folders created in the OnBase Client will have dates with leading zeros in the Auto-Name, regardless of the workstation or application that retrieves them.
