+### DATEFORMAT {#dateformat-function}
+
+The `DATEFORMAT` function formats values of type Date and time as strings using a specified pattern.
+
+This function was introduced in Mendix version 11.12.0.
+
+#### Syntax
+
+The syntax is as follows:
+
+```sql
+DATEFORMAT ( expression , pattern )
+```
+
+`expression` is a value of type Date and time.
+
+`pattern` is a pattern used to convert `expression` to a string value. Only string literals are allowed.
+
+#### Pattern Syntax
+
+The `DATEFORMAT` OQL function uses the same pattern syntax as date parsing functions in Studio Pro, see [Parse and Format Date Function Calls](/refguide/parse-and-format-date-function-calls/).
+
+#### Limitations and Database-Specific Differences
+
+When an OQL query is executed, `DATEFORMAT` is converted to the corresponding database function. Due to implementation specifics of database engines, different limitations apply:
+
+1. Format letters `u`, `F`, `G`, `k`, `K` are not supported.
+2. SQL Server does not support format letters `D`, `Y`, `w`, `W`.
+3. MySQL and MariaDB do not support format letters `S` and `W`.
+4. SAP HANA does not support format letters `Y` and `w`.
+5. Format letter `h` results in different values per database:
+
+    1. HSQLDB uses zero-based indexing and returns values `0` to `11`
+    2. Other databases use one-based indexing and return values `1` to `12`
+    
+6. In addition to listed limitations, there are other implementation differences between database engines.
+
+{{% alert color="warning" %}}
+Always test usages of `DATEFORMAT` with the database engine on which your app runs. OQL queries with `DATEFORMAT` may return different results in HSQLDB and in the production database.

+
+#### Examples{#oql-dateformat-example}
+
+Let's assume that an object has an attribute `StartDate` of type Date and time with value `30 December 2025 13:02:15.300`.
+
+| Function call                                 | Result | Notes |
+|--------------|------|-----|
+| `DATEFORMAT(StartDate, 'dd MMM yyyy')`       | 30 Dec 2025 |  |
+| `DATEFORMAT(StartDate, 'yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss a')`       | 2025-12-30 01:02:15 PM |  |
+| `DATEFORMAT(StartDate, 'EEE-ww-YYYY')`       | Tue-01-2026 | ISO date format is not supported by SAP HANA and SQL Server. `w` stands for the ISO week number, and `Y` stands for ISO year. |
