Extracting Records Where Date does not equal last day of previous month
Forums
I am new to this forum and to IDEA, so I apologize if this has been discussed before or is fairly easy to do, but I am trying to do a direct extraction of any records that have a date field that does not equal the last day of the previous month (i.e. if I run the extraction today on 11/17/2022, I want all records where the date field is not 10/31/2022). I am trying to write the formula in a way that I will be able to automate the extraction going forward with a script. Any help would be appreciated.

Basically, I'd like to identify and extract records where the two following scenarios occur:

Vendor Master in one DB and Employee Master in another

I'm trying to detect if I have in my ERP database vendor master file (Great Plains) employee names that reside in a different database (Vista/PDS). I tried joining the two on address ID but that didn't work very well. Is there another way to do something like this?
Can Virtual field removal cause IDEA crash
Forums
Hello all,
I wondered if anyone came accross any of the 2 situations below:
