Dear MSP

I am not sure if you are aware, but see the following documentation for the
codes used to create the "current date" in the program rule.

https://docs.dhis2.org/2.30/en/user/html/configure_program_rule.html

Please see *Table 21.14. Standard variables to use in program rule
expressions  *

>From what I am aware, these variables are applicable to past versions also
(therefore should work for 2.29 and 2.28 as I have used them in 2.28).

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,
Terence
