date field

Hi,

how can we only print month from a date field in smartforms.

e.g. 21.08.2006(Ardat) . how can we print 08 from this field.

You will have to write a piece of code, to extract the date and put in a variable. Use that to print the month.

You can create a PROGRAM LINES object and write the code there.

Month = date+0(2).

Pass the data to one more variable and print in smart form.

Ex. g_month(2) type c.

g_month = date+2(2).

Hi Rahul

For DATS data type, you can use statement like below:

<b>write:/ sy-datum+4(2).

or as in your case:

write:/ ardat+4(2).</b>

Kind Regards

Hi,

Just store the date value in a variable.Use program lines to do the coding.

General declaration->v1(10) type c.

v2(2).

Input :

ardat

Output :

v1

v2

Coding:

v1 = ardat.

v2 = v1+3(2).

unpack v2 to v2.

Create text element and print v2 there.

Even you can avoid using v1 by assigning ardat+3(2) directly to v2.

Kindly reward if it helps.
