When you set the Created Date and Revised Date fields of a publication, you can choose Today as an option. When you do that, the date remains the same unless you change it manually. So if you produce an output a month later, it will still have the previous month in the output. If you want the date on the outputs to always track to the current date, use the steps in this procedure.
Before you begin
You must have a setting in the Created Date field because it’s always required.
Open the publication, right-click the publication object, and select Properties.
On the Properties dialog, set the Revised Date to a date at least 5 years in the past.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
This functionality is only available on the Revised Date field. And it has to be implemented using a date because the date fields require a date selection.
Click the ellipsis next to the Revised Date field.
Click the month and date at the top of the date selection dialog.
STEP RESULT:
The display will change to show the current year at the top and the months under the year.
Click the left arrow at the top of the dialog to scroll to previous years.
Click a month to select something at least five years in the past.
