Calendar element indicating

[Vijaylakshmi_2 (Vijaylakshmi R)]

Hi,
I need to get dates from the calendar where it should navigate to the years/months and select the date that it’ll be reading from the queue. But I am having trouble indicating the element on the website with the correct selectors in the UI Explorer.
It’s selecting the dates from the calendar as I have to get start date and end date, so when I click on start date the calendar pops up, so I use click activity to click on October 2024 to get other years or months, but it is selecting idx in the selector after indicating the element, which I should not be using according to my requirements.
I am not able to read it (click on it) without idx. Has anyone any suggestion or solution regarding it.

Hello @Vijaylakshmi_2 ,

I had something similar a while ago.

I did it with an if where I decided if I want to select the next year or the current year.

In Case of this year I worked with the selector and variables in the selector:

<webctrl aaname='« {{thisYear}} » Today Clear' tag='TABLE' />
<webctrl aaname='{{thisYear}}' tag='TH' />

The Calender changed a litte depending in which state it was after clicking.

<webctrl aaname='{{thisYear}}' parentid='date-picker' tag='SPAN' />

<webctrl aaname='{{TariffMonth}}' parentid='date-picker' tag='SPAN' />

where

{{myVariable}}

is my Variablename.

So you could also try to work with variables in your selector to select the right date.

Kind Regards

Hi Lukas,
I have passed variables in the selector dynamically.
I have attached the images on how the calendar navigates to the years, using a click activity, so I have passed a variable in the year click activity (where the years are navigated) for getting the required year.

Hello @Vijaylakshmi_2,

you will have to try around by yourself. Because I don´t have the exact same calendar as you.

Mine looks like this:

With a click on 2024 in the “UI-Explorer” I get this:

which I used to click on it with my variable depending on which year it is. .

Maybe you can try it like this?.

Hi,
I have passed the variables for year and I am getting variable is not defined in the current scope. The scope is correct scope only, and I have been getting the values for the variables in the immediate panel, so also getting the data from the queue as I am getting the values for the variables I am passing dynamically.
What is this error about any solutions there?

Hello @Vijaylakshmi_2,

I honestly don´t know what to tell you. Are your variables the right format, “string”, “int32”?

maybe you can get rid of excess attributes like “class= table-condensed” or “Visibleinntertext='…” and it will work?

I have it pretty simple (slim selector) and it works fine. I did the year selection with an Int32 and the Month with a string.

Edit:

1. you could try using “Default” values for your variable to try if it works then.
2. you could try writing the value of your wished variable into the selector to see if it works
   
   

Kind Regards.
