Display just DD (Date) and SS (Seconds) in Infopath form

Question

I'm using Infopath Designer 2013.

I need to create a unique ID of YYMMDDHHMMSS , with no symbols.

I have used "concat(Request Type, TodayYear(substring(now(), 1, 4)), TodayMonth(substring(now(), 6, 2)), TodayDate(substring(now(), 9, 2)), TodayHour(substring(now(), 12, 5)), TodayMinute, TodaySecond)"

However i cannot get the TodayMinute to display just MM and TodaySecond to display just SS with no symbols i.e. ":".

Can anyone help with this?

Found a work around

Year - substring(now(), 1, 4) - 1st letter return 4
Month - substring(now(), 6, 2) - 6th letter return 2
Date - substring(now(), 9, 2) - 9th letter return 2
Hour - substring(now(), 12, 2) - 12th letter return 2
Minute - substring(now(), 15, 2) - 15th letter return 2
Second - substring(now(), 18, 2) - 18th letter return 2
