CONCATENATE date and time into a text variable

[Former Member]

Hi ABAP Gurus,

I would like to retrieve current system date and time and concatenate into a variable. I would really appreciate if someone could help me. I have the following code and i seem to get some kind of error.

I would like my output to be like:

"22.JUN.2006 Some Text 12:30:22"

Code:

data: emtext like TEMSG-EMTEXT.

data: date_output(50) TYPE C.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_SDATE_OUTPUT'

EXPORTING

INPUT = SY-DATUM

IMPORTING

OUTPUT = date_output.

SHIFT date_output RIGHT DELETING TRAILING SPACE.

CONCATENATE date_output ': Some Custom Message '

INTO emtext.

Also, is there a function to convert time to text or conversion is not necessary?

Thanks.

You can do something like this.

report zrich_0001 .

data: date(10) type c,
      time(10) type c,
      str type string.


write sy-datum to date.
write sy-uzeit to time.

concatenate date time into str separated by space.

write:/ str.

Here is something a little closer to your requirement.

report zrich_0001 .

data: date(20) type c,
      time(10) type c,
      str type string.

data: xT247 type T247.

select Single * into xt247 from t247
          where MNR = sy-datum+4(2).

concatenate  sy-datum+6(2) xt247-ktx sy-datum(4)
          INTO date separated by '.'.

write sy-uzeit to time.

concatenate date 'SomeText' time into str separated by space.

write:/ str.
