Conversion of DATE Format?

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Am importing the my_DATE value from front end as in the format of <b>MM/DD/YYYY</b>, but, my_bapi code needs to hv in the format of <i><b>YYYY/MM/DD</b></i>, then only my_bapi gives output!

I hv declared my_date as my_date LIKE RSPARAMS in my_bapi, under TABLES tabstrip.

So, How to convert from MM/DD/YYYY to YYYY/MM/DD? Wht is the FM?

thanq.

hi,

Chk this.

data : out_date(10) like char,
in_date(10) like char.
 
in_date = '10.02.2007'.
 
*take variables V1, V2, V3.
V1 = in_date+ 0(4).
V2 = in_date+ 5(2). 
V3 = in_date+ 7(2). 
 
Concatenate V1 V2 V3 into date separated by '/'.

Now, out_date will have DD/MM/YYYY

No FM needed....

FORM GENERATE_DATE USING L_DATE CHANGING L_NEW_DATE.

  CONCATENATE L_DATE+6(2) L_DATE+4(2) L_DATE+0(4)
  INTO L_NEW_DATE.

ENDFORM.

use offset command to convert desired output

if u want date in dd.mm.yyyy format u can use FM CONVERSION_EXIT_PDATE_OUTPUT u will get ur required date format as u ask dd.mm.yyyy.

FM - CONVERSION_EXIT_PDATE_OUTPUT

data : out_date(10) like char,

in_date(10) like char.

in_date = '10.02.2007'.

*take variables V1, V2, V3.

V1 = in_date+ 0(4).

V2 = in_date+ 5(2).

V3 = in_date+ 7(2).

Concatenate V3 V2 V1 into date separated by '/'.

Now, out_date will have DD/MM/YYYY
