Edit a Calculated Date profile variable

Change the name, description, or category for a Calculated Date profile variable, or update the Date profile variable it references.

1. Open the Community app and click Community > Profile Variables at the top of the page.
2. Click a Calculated Date type profile variable.
3. Optional: In the Profile Variables dialog, change the Variable Name.
   Note:

   • The variable name cannot:
     • Exceed 400 characters (including spaces).
     • Contain commas.
     • Use the same name as a removed profile variable.
     • Use the names of reserved system variables as a profile variable name:
       • begindate
       • communityid
       • datasettype
       • enddate
       • memberid
       • panelid
       • password
       • salt
       • statusupdatedby
       • statusupdateddate
   • If you are using scripting in a power survey to get and post profile variables, changing Variable Name after the power survey is live will break this functionality. You must update the scripts with the new profile variable names.
4. Optional: Edit the Description.
5. Optional: Click the Category drop-down list and select or deselect the categories to associate with the profile variable, as required.
   Note: The Category drop-down list is only available if at least one category has been created on the Manage Categories page.
6. Optional: In the Date Variable drop-down list, select the Date profile variable to base the calculated date on.
   If the Date Variable you select is a sensitive data field, your new Calculated Date profile variable will also be treated as sensitive data.
7. Click Save.
