Date function

Former Member — Thu, 06 Sep 2007 02:17:03 GMT

Im trying to find a function module that allows me to add dates to a current date. I would like the user to insert the number of days for shipping and have the program automatically calculate the delivery date based on SY-datum. Any help is appreciated. Thanks you for your time.

If you simply want to add calendar days, then you can do this.

data: new_date type sy-datum.
data: days type i value '7'.


new_date = sy-datum + days.

Check this

DATA: datum TYPE sy-datum.
datum = sy-datum + 45.

WRITE : datum.

Hello Cullen

Since you are posting your question in the OO forum I can recommend class <b>CL_RECA_DATE</b>.

Have a look at its several useful methods.
