Question for the experts on how you'd accomplish this:
I have Webinar programs and I want to set status based on conditional dates.
Apparently this is not allowed:
IF {{system.datetime}} IS AFTER {{my.Webinar Date}} then CHANGE PROGRAM STATUS TO "Attended On Demand"
Else if
{{system.datetime}} IS EARLIER THAN {{my.Webinar Date}} then CHANGE PROGRAM STATUS TO "Registered for Event"
Hi Robb,
Did you try,
IF {{my.Webinar Date}} is BEFORE {{system.datetime}} then CHANGE PROGRAM STATUS TO "Attended On Demand"
Else if
{{my.Webinar Date}} is LATER THAN {{system.datetime}} then CHANGE PROGRAM STATUS TO "Registered for Event"
instead?
That might work. I did not execute the smart campaign I created to test it. But Marketo did not give an error (red underline) on anything on the flow step.
Other option,
Use a 'webhook' to compare 2 dates. At BrightHooks.com, I have a webhook that accepts 2 dates, compares them and returns 'true' or 'false' if date1 is earlier than date2. You can save it in a field and use it for conditional processing in the nest flow step.
Hope this helps

Doesn't work. I tried Fills Out Form After Date and I tried a conditional on the Change Program Status flow date. Dynamic values not allowed.
HI Robb,
Start with a vote here: Allow {{my.Tokens}} in visited web page triggers, filters, and choice steps
You could create a formula lead field which value would be {{system.datetime}}, but you will still not be able to compare it to {{my.webinar date}}.

GM - you need to finish that sentence with a BECAUSE....
Well,
BECAUSE , AFAIK, this simply not possible to use a token in a choice. Hence the Idea to vote for. But this is something I have not been testing for a while, so may be it would be worth giving it a try and I would be pleased to be wrong on this

You're correct. There's no way to compare dates.
