Time Difference

Hi All

Am trying to find out time difference and add hours to it. The following is what I am trying to do:

In the following case lets assume the system time to be 12:30:20'.

DATA : lv_end_time TYPE uplend VALUE '130000',

lv_total_hours_to_add type i value 5,

lv_hours_done type uplend,

lv_hours_left type ???????.

lv_hours_done = lv_end_time - sy-uzeit. (will have '00:29:40').

Now I want to subtract this from the lv_total_hours_to_add and store the result in

So in my lv_hours_left, I want the value 4 hours 30 minutes and 20 seconds, how would I do this. I tried all the function modules suggested in the forum but still am unable to figure it out, guess its that part of the day where my mind goes to hibernation :).

Would appreciate help with the above.

Thanks

Found out the answer myself. Easier than what I thought, will post the solution I have.

You could make lv_total_hours_to_add and lv_hours_left the same type as the other time fields (uplend) and set the value to '050000'. Then you should be able to just use:

lv_hours_left = lv_total_hours_to_add - lv_hours_done.

I hope this helps.

Here my solution, may not be sleek but serves the purpose :).

REPORT zsa_temp2.

DATA : lv_end_time TYPE uplend VALUE '140000',

lv_seconds TYPE sytabix,

lv_total_seconds TYPE sytabix,

lv_rem_seconds TYPE sytabix,

lv_temp_hours TYPE uplend.

lv_total_seconds = 5 * 60 * 60.

CALL FUNCTION 'SWI_DURATION_DETERMINE'

EXPORTING

start_date = sy-datum

end_date = sy-datum

start_time = sy-uzeit

end_time = lv_end_time

IMPORTING

duration = lv_seconds.

lv_rem_seconds = lv_total_seconds - lv_seconds.

lv_rem_seconds = lv_rem_seconds MOD 86400.

lv_temp_hours = lv_rem_seconds.

WRITE 😕 lv_temp_hours.
