Date Type programming

Former Member — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 22:28:11 GMT

We need to write an ABAP program, which includes getting access to the Dates in a Transaction. These Dates are dynamically computed at run time, based on Date Rules, which are created when configuring Date Management in the IMG. Has anyone does this? Are there Function Modules, which are delivered to assist?

The way it works is that a date is entered, such as Start Date, then a Date Rule is chosen for End Date, adn teh system automatically computes the End Date and displays it in the transaction.

Our specific case is to get to the CRM system Opportunity Milestone dates; however, since IMG Date Management and Configuration is available in all SAP systems, I assume there are also other transactions in other SAP systems (R3, etc) which also dynamically calculate dates based on teh cofigured rules - so that is why I open this question out to anyone who may have been called upon to do similar Date calcluation programming.
