Convert float to date

[david_fryda2]

Hello everyone,

I need to convert "2.006123100000000E+07" to a date format.

How can I do it ?

Thanks in advance.

JUST EDITED THIS ONE, NOW U GET THE VALUE INTO THE STRING>>>

REPORT GEN.
DATA : float TYPE f.

DATA : string(15) TYPE c.

float = '21.12345'.

CALL FUNCTION 'FLTP_CHAR_CONVERSION'
EXPORTING
DECIM = 0
* EXPON = 0
input = float
* IVALU = ' '
* MASKN = ' '
IMPORTING
flstr = string
.

WRITE :/ float.
WRITE :/ string.

Hi Rahul,

If I put the following float "2.006123100000000E+07" instead "41.356661234", it gives me a dump.

Thanks.

Hello David,

You could it like this:

DATA:

zlv_float TYPE f VALUE '2.006123100000000E+07',

zlv_integer TYPE i,

zlv_date TYPE d.

zlv_integer = zlv_float.

write zlv_integer to zlv_date.

Regards,

John.

Hi John,

Looks good logic but when i give the f value '2.006123200000000E+07' it is printing the date as

32122006. This date is not valid

Hope we need to validate the date while conversion.

DATA:

zlv_float TYPE f VALUE '2.006123200000000E+07',

zlv_integer TYPE i,

zlv_date TYPE d.

zlv_integer = zlv_float.

write zlv_integer to zlv_date.

write zlv_date.

HI PLEASE TRY OUT WITH THE CODE I HAVE GIVEN, IT WORKS PERFECTLY ACCORDING TO THE REQUIREMENT

BY THE WAY THIS IS JUST THE WAY TO GET FLOAT INTO ANOTHER VARIABLE... IF U WANT THAT TO BE VERIFIED THEN U NEED TO DO THAT MANUALLY USING SOME CODE

Hi Aluru,

Just add 'DD/MM/YYYY' and you will get a perfect date:

write zlv_date dd/mm/yyyy.

hi ,

use convert key word.

that is

syntax

CONVERT TIME STAMP tst TIME ZONE tz INTO DATE d TIME t.

Example

CONVERT TIME STAMP lv_timestamp TIME ZONE SY-ZONLO INTO DATE d TIME t.

lv_timestamp type should be TIMESTAMP or TIMESTAMPL,

Hi david,

try CTCV_CONVERT_FLOAT_TO_DATE.

date = CONV char8( CONV i( float ) ).
