Which version of SAP are you using. In ECC 5.0 FM ISP_CONVERT_FIRSTCHARS_TOUPPER is not available.

Is your value 'MONDAY' in quotes?

It's better to use offset.

@Gaurav: translate <variable name>+1(249) to lower case

to lower case is not accepted. Can we use offset in TRANSLATE Keyword.

Let us know your solution... I tried this way. Copy paste and check.

DATA : e_head TYPE c,
       e_tail(20) TYPE c,
       Res(13) type c.
CALL FUNCTION 'C147_STRING_SPLIT_AT_POSITION'
  EXPORTING
    i_string   = 'MONDAY'
    i_position = 1
  IMPORTING
    e_head     = e_head
    e_tail     = e_tail.

TRANSLATE e_tail TO LOWER CASE.
CONCATENATE e_head e_tail into res .

WRITE : res
