Hi Ram,

You can do it by assigning the date to a char variable with a datatype char6.

I tried it like this.


data: v_date type sy-datum,
         v_dat type char6.

v_date = sy-datum.
v_dat = v_date.
WRITE: / v_dat .

This code will truncate the date and you will get the output as yyyymm.

Hope this is helpful.

Cheers,

Vivek.

Hi,

You can create your own search help or discuss with FI consultant for report name which contain such kind of input help, I think there are may report in FI used such kind of input.

If you are using the web dynpro you have to define the OVS (Object value selector) for input search help
