evanofjd opened a new issue, #6754:
URL: https://github.com/apache/hop/issues/6754
### Apache Hop version?
2.17.0
### Java version?
openjdk version "17.0.18" 2026-01-20 LTS
### Operating system
Windows
### What happened?
**Steps to reproduce the issue:**
In a pipeline, add the JavaScript step with the following code:
var dateTime = new Date();
var date3 = truncDate(dateTime, 3); // gives back today at
yyyy/MM/dd 00:00:00.000
Add date3 to the fields "exported" by the JavaScript step.
Write the value of date3 to log.
If this is run at 2026/03/10 11:53:53, the actual result would be date3 =
"2026/03/10 00:53:53".
**Expected result:**
If this is run at 2026/03/10 11:53:53, the expected result is date3 =
"2026/03/10 00:00:00".
That is what the documentation in the sample says (see example code above,
which was copied from the sample).
**Cause of functionality change**
This PR https://github.com/apache/hop/pull/5931 added "breaks" after each of
the switch options in the truncDate method in
plugins/transforms/javascript/src/main/java/org/apache/hop/pipeline/transforms/javascript/ScriptValuesAddedFunctions.java.
Therefore, with truncDate(dateTime, 3) ONLY the hour is truncated, not the
minutes, seconds, milliseconds.
