      Hi Sebastian Alonsoabout

      Kindly download and import this sample app into your Joget Workflow, will work in both community and enterprise version 5+.

      The app has a form with example JS to substring the '#currentUser.username#' and '#date.EEEE, d MMMM yyyy' into 2 text field element. Works the same concept for form hash variable. Will also work on hidden fields too.

      The JS/Jquery code in the form sits in the CustomHTML field element, as follows:

      <script>
      $(document).ready( function(){
       var uName = '#currentUser.username#';
       var subUname = uName.substring(2, 5);
       $('#subUsername').val(subUname);
      var uDate = '#date.EEEE, d MMMM yyyy#';
       var subUdate = uDate.substring(16, 20);
       $('#subDate').val(subUdate);
      });
      </script>

      You can also use substring hash in beanshell using the Java syntax.

        Hi Andrew,

                         I'd just tried and I'm mising something in the writing. The next Hash Variable #form.0101_Solicitud.SubRubro# gives as result one string. How must I write the sentence in the hidden Field so as to get the first 3 chars from this string?

        Thanks in advance.

        Sebastian.

          Hi Sebastian

          You can use JS String.prototype.substring() to extract a substring from a hash variable or a Java beanshell.
