I have a search as follows

earliest="08/01/2016:00:00:01" latest="08/01/2016:23:59:59" getABCsWin("XYZ","abc12345678")

Now how can I add the time format string as mentioned below for all the searches contains unique search string "getABCsWin"

timeformat="%d/%m/%Y:%H:%M:%S”

Is it something I need to add in macros.conf if yes. How can I add it?

You can edit the getABCsWin macro from the GUI. All (permissions) macros can be found at Settings > Advanced Search > Search macros.

It looks like the macro already exists. When you click on "Search Macros", it will list all the macros. Find the one called getABCsWin edit the definition & save.
