Use 'DATE_CHECK_PLAUSIBILITY' for date check

data: lv_date type sy-datum,
      lv_msg(50) type c.
lv_date = '20051314'.
 
CALL FUNCTION 'DATE_CHECK_PLAUSIBILITY'
  EXPORTING
    DATE                            = lv_date
 EXCEPTIONS
   PLAUSIBILITY_CHECK_FAILED       = 1
   OTHERS                          = 2
          .
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
 MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
         WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4 into lv_msg.
 write: lv_msg.
ENDIF.

The above said FM is used to check whether the date is valid or not.

Use CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL .

if sy-subrc = 1, then it is invalid.

in the control panel change ur date settings to mm/dd/yyyy

then use FM CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL , this will validate the date

[Former Member]

By Using the FM convert_date_internal. It is forcing me to correct the date in the flat file. I want to check the date is valid or not. If valid subrc = 0.

Hi chandu,

1. If valid subrc = 0.

The FM

CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL

is used in the same way as u want.

2. We pass the date

in the user format (mm/dd/yyyy)

and it will return sy-subrc = 0, if ok.

3. just copy paste to get a taste of it.

4.

report abc.

PARAMETERS : MYDATE(10) TYPE C DEFAULT '15.08.2006'.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL'

EXPORTING

DATE_EXTERNAL = MYDATE

• ACCEPT_INITIAL_DATE =

• IMPORTING

• DATE_INTERNAL =

EXCEPTIONS

DATE_EXTERNAL_IS_INVALID = 1

OTHERS = 2

.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

write 😕 'INVALID DATE'.

ELSE.

WRITE 😕 'VALID'.

ENDIF.

Chandu,

U can use the below logic.

lurdate = '08/16/2006'. "from your file

concatenate lurdate6(4) lurdate(2) lurdate3(2)into ldate.

CALL FUNCTION 'DATE_CHECK_PLAUSIBILITY'

EXPORTING

DATE = ldate

EXCEPTIONS

PLAUSIBILITY_CHECK_FAILED = 1

OTHERS = 2

.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

write: 'invalid date'.

Hi again,

1. The date will always be in the format

mm/dd/yyyyy

2. This format will be fixed

(independent of the user settings in r/3)

3. If thats the case, then

we can extract the year, month, date

from this character field (mm/dd/yyyy)

and check if date is ok or not.

4. Just copy paste.

(enter date on screen (in mm/dd/yyyy) format,

it will give message if ok / not ok.

5.

report abc.

data : DATE1 TYPE SY-DATUM.

*----

---

MM/DD/YYYY FORMAT

PARAMETERS : MYDATE(10) TYPE C DEFAULT '08/15/2006'.

*----

---

CONCATENATE MYDATE6(4) MYDATE0(2) MYDATE+3(2) INTO DATE1.

CALL FUNCTION 'DATE_CHECK_PLAUSIBILITY'

EXPORTING

DATE = DATE1

EXCEPTIONS

PLAUSIBILITY_CHECK_FAILED = 1

OTHERS = 2.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

WRITE 😕 'INVALID DATE'.

ELSE.

WRITE 😕 'VALID'.

ENDIF.

Direct Answer,

Use this Function Module: <b>RP_CHECK_DATE</b>

The input should be in MMDDYYYY (Std.) format.
