Shortcut key for *now*


I'm looking for the shortcut to enter the date and time of now in Microsoft Navision. I know about 't', which will enter today's date, but that leaves the time-part empty.

So basically: What key goes at the place of the ?

Key     Result
't'     06/03/15 00:00:00  
?       06/03/15 14:36:28 

Note: The exact letter depends on the language of your specific Navision client. In english, the letter is 't'.


Solution

  • Google can be your friend after all. Seems I had to threaten it with a question here first.

    As found on KRIKI’S DYNAMICS NAV BLOG the answer is

    t t
    

    Quoted from the blog:

    Everyone (at least, I think so) knows that you can use ‘t’ (or ‘w’ for workdate) in a datefield to get the current system date. Not everyone knows that you can use ‘t’ in a time field to get the system time. But do you know you can use ‘t t’ to get the current system date + time in a datetime field? The first t is for the date and the second for the time. And you can also use ‘w t’ to have the workdate + system time.
