Year Month validation

Former Member — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 14:38:54 GMT

Hi,

In report selection screen, I require a Year & Month parameter(YYYYMM or any year & month format), currently I am using NUM6 field and doing the validation manually using substring function to validate month & etc. Like to know whether any standard SAP domain/data element available... is there any way I can use some SAP standard functionality instead of doing it manually?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Balaji Viswanath.

Thanks for your answers, indeed it's valuable. But mainly I am looking for validation part than popup/f4 help.

Well if you use the popup, you dont have to do any validations.
