Authorization in BDC session (date format)

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have a very peculiar problem, When I am executing a Background job (XK15) sometimes the job is successful and sometimes it is failing. When I am checking the error (SM35)it is showing as Date format (MM/DD/YYYY). My data format is same as MM/DD/YYYY but observed that under authorization it is taking different users.Sometimes it is taking my user id and the jobs are successful.

I feel that when it is taking different user ids for the sessions executed by me it is taking the date format of those user ids and I am getting the date format error.

Formatting error in the field RV13A-DATAB;

see next message XK15 1 SAPMV13A 1806 2 E 0

Enter date in the format ____/__/__

Please let me know why it is taking different userid's and how to resolve this issue ?

Early response is highly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

Goto tableUSR01.

Take field value 'DATFM' for every user.

Depends on this use FM, 'CONVERSION_EXIT_PDATE_OUTPUT' to convert date.

or do manual processing using concatenate statement to get user specific date format.

If you struck up anywhere revert back,

Thanks,

hi krishna,

I can do this or call the FM SUSR_GET_USER_DEFAULTS, but why is the authorization taking different user ids and sometimes even mine though in call the cases I am created the session.

Thanks
