Hi,

What do you mean by AA in the date format YYYYMMAA?

If it is YYYYMMDD format, it is an SAP standard format. If you want to set the user profile settings Go to SU3 transaction and in the Defaults tab set the date format to your desired format.

 concatenate v_datum+0(4) v_datum+4(2) v_datum+6(2)  into v_date.
 
write : v_date.

Hi,

First refrain from posting multiple threads for same question.

What do u mean by AA?

Is it YYYYMMDD?

Variable of type sy-datum always stores date in the format YYYYMMDD. But when u output it displays the seperater.

If u don't want that then simply take it into one character variable.

Check below code.


DATA: date TYPE sy-datum,
      char(8) TYPE c.
date = sy-datum.
char = date.
WRITE: date, char.

Thanks,

Vinod.
