I need to build a numeric string for a time stamp of exactly YYYYMMDDHHMMSSCCC

Is there an alternative to using if() statements on everything in order to force 07 for the month of July, 09 for 9am etc

The person who developed the corresponding program showed me the c# code which uses padleft to insert 0s but appian padleft only allows for spaces to be inserted. Is there any other function to save from having 6 if() statements to generate this string?

You could look at the explicit formatting available in the general text() function in Appian:
