convert the date in the desired format and then pass it to SAP Script.

If you dont convert it, it will automatially take default format from User profile.

Hi Jorge,

You can convert the date of 02.04.2006 to 02 de Junio de 2006 and then print the converted value.

Just refer this link which will tell u how to convert.

Hi,

are you sure ?, and both the places are you using the same variable &REGUH-VALUT&.

i doubt check it once you might be converting some where in your program.....

Then, its better to convert the date format manually in print program by taking offset positions and rearrange them in a variable by specifying dots between day month year.

or you can SET DATE MASK ddmmyyy.

In some documents with the same user and profile and language options the form shows 02.06.2006 ( is the correct ) sometimes and other shows 02 de Junio de 2006 ( Incorrect ) .

Hi Jorge,

that may be because of country specific date formatting within SAP... u can override all such side effects by using the SET DATE MASK command as suggested by other ppl.

just before ur variable in sapscript..

/: SET DATE MASK = 'DD.MM.YYYY'.

the next line contains ur date variable...similarly u can use this anywhere else...
