Dayofyear
- Description: Returns the number corresponding to the day of the year for the given date.
- Example: Dayofyear(April 5th 2023) returns "95"
Example:
A marketing team organizing an annual conference can schedule the conference date, plan pre-event promotions, and track registrations and attendee engagement throughout the planning process leveraging the Dayofyear function.
FromTimestamp
- Description: Creates date time from timestamp.
- Example: FromTimestamp(1581066895) returns Feb 7, 2020 02:44 PM
Example:
A retail company using the FromTimestamp function can leverage the FromTimestamp function in Zoho CRM to convert timestamps from order creation and shipment notifications into date-time formats, facilitating accurate order tracking and timely delivery management.
Numeric Formula Functions
IsPositive
- Description: Checks if the number is positive.
- Example: IsPositive(-345) returns false

A sales team within a company is achieving quarterly sales targets and increasing revenue generation across product lines. The sales manager using the IsPositive function can analyze sales metrics, assess sales team performance, and monitor revenue trends by determining whether sales figures meet predefined positive criteria
IsNegative
- Description: Checks if the number is negative.
