Automatic date in layout FBL1N basic

arturm — Wed, 23 Nov 2022 13:46:36 GMT

Hi,

I have a question related to layouts which can be made in t-code FBL1N.

Is there a possibility to set default net due date as current date + for example 4 days?

Also is there a possibility to set date like creation date to update everyday? Something like =today formula in excel. It will avoid changing creation date day by day in workflow. It will update automically.

Thank you.

If you need more details about this case please let me know. If Tag isn't related, please forgive me. It's my first question here.

Artur

I assume you mean default parameters in selection variants (not layouts of data displayed by the report).

The answer is: yes, it is possible to set date fields in such a way that the default values are dependent on current date. To achevie this:

1. On selection screen first click Ctrl-S - a screen appears that contains the definition of the selection variant being created.

2. Find the name of your field in the list of screen fields and use one of these options:

There are several options you can play with.

good luck

Wow, thank you.

Good to know that it is possible to personalize this.

I need to test different variants 🙂
