Adding Minutes to date and time

Former Member — Tue, 09 Jan 2007 00:34:56 GMT

hi,

Is there any direct way/FM to add minutes to date and time..

keeping in mind that adding minutes may change the date ...

Use this FM.

DATA V_DATE TYPE SY-DATUM VALUE '20060726'.

DATA V_TIME TYPE SY-UZEIT VALUE '170746'.

DATA V_DATE1 TYPE SY-DATUM VALUE '20060726'.

DATA V_TIME1 TYPE SY-UZEIT VALUE '170746'.

CALL FUNCTION 'CATT_ADD_TO_TIME'

EXPORTING

idate = V_DATE

itime = V_TIME

stdaz = '2400' -->Specify hours with minutes

IMPORTING

EDATE = V_DATE1

ETIME = V_TIME1.

WRITE:/ V_DATE1, V_TIME1. -->Will contain new date and time afte adding STDAZ hours with mintues.

Hi Anuradha,

Pass the negative value to the same FM and check it out.
