EMONTHS LIKE VTBBEWE-ATAGE,

EYEARS LIKE VTBBEWE-ATAGE.

PARAMETERS: FROMDATE LIKE VTBBEWE-DBERVON,

TODATE LIKE VTBBEWE-DBERBIS DEFAULT SY-DATUM.

call function 'FIMA_DAYS_AND_MONTHS_AND_YEARS'

exporting

i_date_from = FROMDATE

i_date_to = TODATE

  • I_FLG_SEPARATE = ' '

IMPORTING

E_DAYS = EDAYS

E_MONTHS = EMONTHS

E_YEARS = EYEARS.

WRITE:/ 'Difference in Days ', EDAYS.

WRITE:/ 'Difference in Months ', EMONTHS.

INITIALIZATION.

FROMDATE = SY-DATUM - 60.
