You can use F.M. HRVE_CONVERT_TIME

Pass time_type = 'A' .

input_time = sy-uzeit.

and you will get your desired result in output_time and output_am_pm.

Hope this helps.

DATA: lv_time TYPE sy-uzeit,
lv_am_pm TYPE char2.

lv_time = sy-uzeit.

CALL FUNCTION 'HRVE_CONVERT_TIME'
EXPORTING
    type_time             = 'A'
    input_time            = lv_time
*   INPUT_AM_PM           = 'AM'
IMPORTING
   OUTPUT_TIME           = lv_time
   OUTPUT_AM_PM          = lv_am_pm
EXCEPTIONS
   PARAMETER_ERROR       = 1
   OTHERS                = 2
          .
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
WRITE:/ lv_time, lv_am_pm.
ENDIF.

You can also make a variable type string and concatenate lv_time and lv_am_pm if you want to use it combined.

Use FM HRVE_CONVERT_TIME .

CALL FUNCTION 'HRVE_CONVERT_TIME'

EXPORTING

type_time = 'A'

input_time = sy-uzeit

IMPORTING

OUTPUT_TIME = <Time>

OUTPUT_AM_PM = <AM/PM Value>

CONCATENATE the two importing parameter to get the exact value.

Virtually everything around date or time formatting has been discussed before. Please make sure you look for available information before posting.

Un-marking this as question.
