Date format...

[Former Member]

Hi all,

May I know how to retrieve the day,month and year separately from a data stored in date format. What is the internal structure of date format?

Thanks & regards,

YYYYMMDD

DAY = SY-DATUM+6(2).

MONTH = SY-DATUM+4(2).

YEAR = SY-DATUM+0(4).

HI Herath,

1. Dates are always stored in YYYYMMDD format only.

2. u can retrive using offset

day = mydate+6(2)

mon = mydate+4(2)

year = mydate(4)

Hi,

as it internal format yyyymmdd

then you can try this way..

year = date+0(4).

day = date+6(2).

month = date+4(2).

Hi,

Use this..

s_date = sy-datum.

CONCATENATE s_date6(2) '/' s_date4(2) '/' s_date(4) INTO date_string1.

this way u can move ur date and u can also move them to different variables based on ur requirement.

Cheers,

Date formatting

The following code demonstrates a number of ways to format a date value:

• Using the WRITE statement

***************************

data: gd_date(10).

"field to store output date

• Converts date from 20020901 to 01.09.2002

write sy-datum to gd_date dd/mm/yyyy.

• Converts date from 20020901 to 2002/09/01

write sy-datum to gd_date yyyy/mm/dd.

• Converts date from 20020901 to 01.09.02

write sy-datum to gd_date dd/mm/yy.

• Using data manipulation techniques

************************************

data: gd_date(8). "field to store output date

• Converts date from 20010901 to 01092001

gd_date(2) = sy-datum+6(2).

gd_date2(2) = sy-datum4(2).

gd_date+4(4) = sy-datum(4).

• Using Function modules

************************

data: gd_date(8). "field to store output date

• Converts date from 20010901 to 01SEP2001

gd_date = sy-datum.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_IDATE_OUTPUT'

EXPORTING

input = gd_date

IMPORTING

OUTPUT = gd_date.

Hai Ananda

Check the following Code

Parameters : P_date(8) type c default '20060225'.

data : day(2) type c,

mon(2) type c,

year(4) type c.

day = p_date+6(2).

mon = p_date+4(2).

year = p_date+0(4).

write 😕 day,

/ mon,

/ year.

Hi Herath,

Internally date is stored as yyyymmdd. Please check the following,

Data : date type sy-datum,

day(2),

month(2),

year(4).

date = sy-datum.

year = date+0(4).

month = date+4(2).

day = date+6(2).

write : / date, day, month, year.

Hope it helps u.
