Ensure that in your subscriber you check that what user entered contains your token, then return properly formatted time for your filter token. - `OnResolveDateTokenFromDateTimeFilter(DateToken: Text; var DateFilter: Date; var Handled: Boolean)` (integration): Use this event if you want to add support for additional filter tokens that user will be able to use as date in DateTime filters. Parses and translates a date token into a date filter. - `OnResolveTimeTokenFromDateTimeFilter(TimeToken: Text; var TimeFilter: Time; var Handled: Boolean)` (integration): Use this event if you want to add support for additional filter tokens that user will be able to use as time in DateTime filters. Parses and translates a time token into a time filter. ## Procedures - `MakeDateFilter(var DateFilterText: Text)`: Turns text that represents date formats into a valid date filter expression with respect to filter tokens and date formulas. Call this function from onValidate trigger of page field that should behave similar to system filters. The text from which the date filter should be extracted passed as VAR. F... - `MakeTimeFilter(var TimeFilterText: Text)`: Turns text that represents a time into a valid time filter with respect to filter tokens. Call this function from onValidate trigger of page field that should behave similar to system filters. - `MakeTextFilter(var TextFilter: Text)`: Turns text into a valid text filter with respect to filter tokens. Call this function from onValidate trigger of page field that should behave similar to system filters. - `MakeDateTimeFilter(var DateTimeFilterText: Text)`: Turns text that represents a DateTime into a valid date and time filter with respect to filter tokens. Call this function from onValidate trigger of page field that should behave similar to system filters. ## Calls From the extracted call graph of BC29 (graphify-al on the snapshot checkout): calls whose target is known from a declared type or an `Object::"Name"` argument. Interface dispatch and calls through events are not counted, so the list is not complete. - [Codeunit 58 "Filter Tokens Impl."](../codeunit/58.md) (4 calls: `MakeDateFilter → MakeDateFilter`, `MakeDateTimeFilter → MakeDateTimeFilter`, `MakeTextFilter → MakeTextFilter`, …) ## Called by - [Codeunit 58 "Filter Tokens Impl."](../codeunit/58.md) (5 calls: `MakeTextFilter → OnResolveTextFilterToken`, `ResolveDateFilterToken → OnResolveDateFilterToken`, `ResolveDateText → OnResolveDateTokenFromDateTimeFilter`, …) - [Page 113 "Budget"](../page/113.md) (1 call: `ValidateDateFilter → MakeDateFilter`) - [Page 221 "Resource Allocated per Job"](../page/221.md) (1 call: `DateControl → MakeDateFilter`) - [Page 228 "Res.

The call sections above are our own, per object, from the BC29 call graph. For a procedure body or the calls of one procedure, ask bc-code-atlas (external, by Stefan Maron, MIT; default corpus w1-28), which the bc-observatory plugin connects: `bcatlas_resolve_node(object_type: "codeunit", object_name: "Filter Tokens")`, then `bcatlas_get_procedure_body` or `bcatlas_get_neighbors` on the returned id.
