Calculating age in months and days

Users

Hi,

Im trying to calculate age in months and days in Commcare. The calculation
will be done as 'current date - DOB'

I know you can do the calculation seperately as months, years, weeks or
days, but is there anyway to set a claculation and show the output as
months and days (e.g. 24 months, 15 days)?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi Sabeth,

There is an operator you can use in CommCare logic called "mod". You can
use it to get the remainder of days after you divide to get the number of
months.

We have some documentation here that might be helpful: https://confluence.
