Its not reverse. Its the default format for date YYYYMMDD.

Use a Character varaible to get the date in the DDMMYYYY using <b>offset</b> functionality.

CONVERT_DATE_EXTERNAL

Hi,

Try FM "CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERN_FORMAT" and also it depends on the user settings.

Other way around is pass it as a string STRING_REVERSE FM.

Reward if helpful.

Hi,

You can use WRITE: SY-DATUM TO W_VARIABLE DD/MM/YYYY. The '/' will be decided form user profile(whether it is dot. or slash /).

Alex,

If you have defined the parameter like sy-datum(basically and date field) ...the value in the parameter would be validated for date and stored in YYYYMMDD. In that case you can use the write statement to store it in different format in char field.

WRITE pdate to cdate DD/MM/YYYY.

Otherwise you can change your parameter to be of character type and it would take the value as you have entered but make sure that you would need to validate the date.
