Using Effective Date Operator in the Connected Query Manager Page

Effective date operator is available in the Connected Query Manager page as a part of the field mapping process. You can select an effective date operator for any of the member queries if a child query has an EFFDT value selected as a related field.

This example shows the Connected Query Manager page and the Eff Date Operator (effective date operator) list.

Connected Query Manager page and the Eff Date Operator list

Note that the effective date operator list:

  • Is available only if a selected field has a format of EFFDT.

  • Is available in the Connected Query Manager but not available in the Connected Query Quick Start.

  • Has a default operator—an equal operator—like other fields.

  • Need not be saved in the database before you preview the XML of a connected query.
