date conversion

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I want to convert my date format. From DD/MM/YYYY to DD/MM/YY. I am doing this using concatenation. Can any body tell me how to do this using 'WRITE TO'. Or please suggest me if any Function Module exists.

Thanks.

Praveen,

Try this Fn Module

DATE_CONV_EXT_TO_INT - user formatted date is converted to system date

Hi,

try this code

data: char type sy-datum.

char = sy-datum.

data: var(10) type c.

write char to var using edit mask '__/__/____'.

write:/ var.

clear: var.

concatenate sy-datum6(2) sy-datum4(2) sy-datum+2(2) into var.

skip.

write var using edit mask '__/__/__'.

thanks & regards,

Hi Praveena,

Anyways you are concatenating into a variable use that variable.

Concatenate date10(2) date12(2) date1+6(2) into date2.

Use date2.

Hi Praveen,

This is very simple...

Use like this:

WRITE d_temp TO field2 DD/MM/YY.

If it is a character field do like this...

DATA : DATE(10) VALUE '22/07/2007',

OUTDATE(8).

WRITE : DATE+0(6) TO OUTDATE(6),

DATE8(2) TO OUTDATE6(2).

WRITE : / OUTDATE.

But if it is a date field (type d or like sy-datum) do like this

DATA : IDATE LIKE SY-DATUM.

IDATE = SY-DATUM.

WRITE : / IDATE DD/MM/YY.
