FM DATE_CREATE

Former Member — Tue, 22 Jan 2013 09:15:17 GMT

Hi Abap experts,

Does anyone knows the function module Date_Create?

There is no documentation about this FM. I would like to know the aim of this FM and the contexts where we can use it.

Thanks.

Hi,

I would like to understand this FM since it's used on a BW user exit.

What don't you understand in "Determines New Date from a Date, Interest Days and Calendar Days", nevertheless this FM should become obsolete, replaced with FIMA_DATE_CREATE. Did you execute some where-used and perform an OSS note search ?

Did (not) the author of the user-exit left some documentation or at least some comment ?

Those FMs are widely used in SAP to execute date calculation (add years, months days or calculate or check end of month, etc.)
