      DP_TIMEOUT              = 16
      OTHERS                  = 17.
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
* MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

Hi Addu,

Use below peace of code to change date format from DD.MM.YYYY to YYYYMMDD.

Data : lv_date2 type sy-datum.

CONCATENATE wa-date2+6(4) wa-date2+3(2) wa-date2+0(2) INTO lv_date2.

Hi Addu,

Try like this

Data : lv_date type sy-datum.

CONCATENATE wa-date2+6(2) wa-date2+4(2) wa-date2+0(4) INTO lv_date.

condense lv_date no-gaps.

Then Modify the particular field in internal by transporting it based on index.

Hi ,

Declare your variable outside the loop.

Data : lv_date2 type ekes-eindt. "sy-datum.

lv_index type sy-index.

clear :wa,lv_index.

loop at gtab into wa.

lv_index = sy-tabix.
CONCATENATE wa-date2+6(4) wa-date2+3(2) wa-date2+0(2) INTO lv_date2.
condense lv_date2 no-gaps.
wa-date2 = lv_date2.

modify gtab from wa index lv_index transporting date2.

Endloop.

clear: wa.

Yes you have to write code below the GUI_UPLOAD function module.

Please reward points if useful.

ENDIF.

loop at gtab from 2.

    split gtab-line at ',' into wa-ebeln wa-ebelp wa-ebtyp wa-date2 wa-menge.

I am getting error at modify statement that date2 is no component exit with name2 it is saying

Hi Addu,

Use below peace of code in order to change date format from DD.MM.YYYY to YYYYMMDD.

Data : lv_date2 type sy-datum.

CONCATENATE wa-date2+6(4) wa-date2+3(2) wa-date2+0(2) INTO lv_date2.

CONDENSE lv_date2 NO-GAPS .

If changes are not visible in excel ,just change your Excel sheet settings:

In excell go to the date field , right click and goto format cell, then under category select date and proide the type you need.

if nothing helps,

Go to T_code : SU3

or system-> User profile-> Own data

Now adjust the date parameters as per requirement

Problem still persits then check with Basis team regarding your profile .

Best Regards,

Sachin.
