i have selected some fields from a table .in the date column there are some invalid values.i would like to get rid of the values.

then DATE_CHECK_PLAUSIBILITY is right FM in such cases...

DATA : p_date(8) TYPE d VALUE '20081301'.

CALL FUNCTION 'DATE_CHECK_PLAUSIBILITY'

EXPORTING

date = p_date

EXCEPTIONS

plausibility_check_failed = 1

OTHERS = 2.

IF sy-subrc NE 0.

WRITE 😕 'Invalid date'.

ENDIF.
