Conversion routine for date fields

Former Member — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 03:55:14 GMT

Hi Techies,

I have defined a conversion routine which converts

User-specific date(yyyy.mm.dd) format to Standard SAP format

(yyyymmdd) and vice versa.

Can I assign this conversion routine to different date fields in

same table. It works for one date fields, When I try for the second

date fields, it does not work .

Is there any procedure to make it happen

Thanks

Santhosh

Hi, Khanna

You will have to create a Domain in Definition Tab there a Field Convers. Routine give you you Routine name here.

than create Data Element using this Domain and create the Parameter or Select-Option with reference to this data element.

hope above will solve out your problem,

Faisal

first thing is there are too many date related posts, please search you will get yourself an answer.

forum rules:

now,

each conversion routine is associated to a domain. create a Z domain, assign the conversion routine to it. then assign the Z Domain to a Z data element, use this dataelement in your table.
