SELECT SINGLE * 
         FROM table_name
         WHERE data_field  IN s_date.

  IF sy-subrc <> 0.

hi,

tried this.it definitely works.

REPORT ZEX_DATEVALIDATE .

Parameters p_date like sy-datum.

CALL FUNCTION 'DATE_CHECK_PLAUSIBILITY'

EXPORTING

DATE = p_date

EXCEPTIONS

PLAUSIBILITY_CHECK_FAILED = 1

OTHERS = 2.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

• MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

• WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

Write:/ sy-subrc.

If the value of Sy-subrc is 0 that means the date field has a valid value.

If the input is 01/01/2008 then the output of the above program is as follows.

Validate the date

0

If the input is 31/31/2008 then the output is as follows.

Validate the date

1

HI,

For date field validation you need not to do much

Just declare date field as type sy-datum and every validation will be managed internaly.

Syntax:

data:
   v_date type sy-datum.

OR

parameters:
         v_date type sy-datum.

Hi,

Wat exactly you want to validate for date filed?

If you input any wrong data(including format) in the date field, system will throw an error.

Hi,

As also said by others use the FM DATE_CHECK_PLAUSIBILITY:

If you are using a sekection screen than write it under the event at selection-screen on w_date, where w_date is your date field.

CALL FUNCTION 'DATE_CHECK_PLAUSIBILITY'
     EXPORTING
          DATE                                         = p_date
     EXCEPTIONS
          PLAUSIBILITY_CHECK_FAILED   = 1
          OTHERS                                    = 2.
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
 MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
         WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.

if sy-subrc is 0 then the date field is valid otherwise show a message to enter date in correct format.

With luck,

Pritam.

HI sunitha,

Sriram has said rightly,

if you enter a wrong format system throws an error.

let us know what validation you are looking for.
