Selection screen date time format

former_member551393 — Fri, 20 May 2022 05:11:05 GMT

Hey everyone,

I need to add a creation date in selection screen. But, the field available has both date and time.

eg : the format that is currently in 12.31.9999 00:00:00

the format required is : 12.31.9999 (DD/MM/YYYY or MM/DD/YYYY)

Is there a FM or any specific code to change this?

How did you add the timestamp field?

Why don't you add a field of type date instead of timestamp?

What program is it?

I am creating a custom pgm to update the master data table in apo. Currently a field is not getting updated. For this, the sel screen has to have 'creation date'. The field has both time and date as mentioned above. How to format it to only date either as MMDDYYYY or DDMMYYYY.

Currently it is 12.31.9999 00:00:00
