In your program it should be yyyy.mm.dd. When you perform a SY-DATUM assignment to a program variable, the system returns a date in the yyyy.mm.dd format. You should work with this format until the end, until you do an output. All system date functions work on and expect yyyy.mm.dd.

SLS_MISC_GET_USER_DATE_FORMAT

Use the above FM

or use the below code to get it

DATA: w_datfm TYPE xudatfm,

w_value TYPE domvalue_l,

wa_dd07v LIKE dd07v,

w_rc LIKE sy-subrc.

CONSTANTS: c_langu TYPE langu VALUE 'EN',

c_domname TYPE domname VALUE 'XUDATFM'.

• If no user specified, get date format from current user's profile

CLEAR w_datfm.

IF user_name IS INITIAL.

SELECT SINGLE DATFM

INTO w_datfm

FROM USR01

WHERE BNAME = SY-UNAME.

ELSE.

SELECT SINGLE DATFM

INTO w_datfm

FROM USR01

WHERE BNAME = user_name.

ENDIF.

IF w_datfm IS INITIAL.

w_datfm = '2'. "MM/DD/YYYY

ENDIF.

w_value = w_datfm.

CALL FUNCTION 'DD_DOMVALUE_TEXT_GET'

EXPORTING

DOMNAME = c_domname

VALUE = w_value

LANGU = c_langu

IMPORTING

DD07V_WA = wa_dd07v

RC = w_rc.

IF w_rc = 0.

date_format = wa_dd07v-ddtext.

ELSE.

date_format = 'MM/DD/YYYY'.

ENDIF.
