Aruna creating a view on contact within the past two hours of the current time
Hi Guys,
I have requirement, I need to create a view on Contact within the past two hours of the current time .
I think this cannot be done using based on currentdate, because our call center is open 24 hours. so If a Contact is created at 11pm on tuesday then the view would display the record up untill 1 am on wednesday.
can any one suggest me on this how to create the viwe according to my requirement.
is it possible or not.
Thank you
Aruna
It is 2 hours
1 day =24 hours
1 hour= 1/24 = 0.0416
2 Hours= 2 * 0.0416 = 0.083

Use this to create formula field value and filter by it in list.

How can I create an age or duration field in a days, hours, or minute format?
This solution applies whenever you want to express a duration or age, for instance if you want to compare when a record was modified to when it was created, you would compare the "LastModifiedDate" field with the "CreatedDate" field.
To do that, you can create a formula field type of "number", called for instance "D2subD1" that contains this :
{!LastModifiedDate} - {!CreatedDate}
However, the result of this formula is a number whose integer part is the number of days, and whose decimals are hours and minutes expressed as a fraction of 1 day.
For instance, it would return "13.5" for 13 days and 12 hours.
To express this number in the format "13 days 12 hours 0 mn", you need to create another formula field of the type text that contains:
IF ( {!D2subD1__c} > 0,
TEXT(FLOOR( {!D2subD1__c})) & " days " &
TEXT( FLOOR( 24 * ( {!D2subD1__c} - FLOOR({!D2subD1__c}) ))) & " hours" &
TEXT( ROUND(60 * (ROUND( 24 * ( {!D2subD1__c} - FLOOR({!D2subD1__c}) ),8) - FLOOR(
ROUND( 24 * ( {!D2subD1__c} - FLOOR({!D2subD1__c}) ),8)) ),0)) & " mn "
, "")
This can be applied for any subtraction of 2 date/time fields.

Hi,
This solution is not working , I need to pull the records which are created in past 2 hours.
I think I need to go for the Vf and Apex.
can any one tell me how to write a query to get the records which are created in past 2 hours.
Thank you

Create custom text formula field with this code:
if((NOW()-CreatedDate)<=0.083,'Yes','No')
Create list view with filter
Custom Field Name equals Yes
You will see just records created last two houre.

Can someone help me add seconds to this formula as well as days, hours, and minutes
Thanks

1 day =24 hours
1 hour= 1/24 = 0.0416
1 minute=1/(24*60)=1/1440
1 second = 1/(24*60*60)=1/86400
