Modifying dates in Ticket Design

A work-around if there is not a solution is to hardcode: Gift Certificate expires 1 year from this date - <insert today’s date>

If there is a solution…I will be implementing this one!

Hello,

I am putting together a new receipt format for our Gift Certificates.  I would like to add a data element for expiration date.  The expiration date should be one year from the original sales date of the gift certificate.

There is a data element called GC Original Date which works great for printing the original date of issue, but how do I now add one year to that date and then print it on the ticket?  Is there a way to sneak code into the Mask format that will allow me to adjust the date by a year?

This is for printing to the ticket printer.  Once I get this figured out I will move on to the form design to print the same information with Gift Certificate Batch Printing report.

Thanks in advance for your help!
