Use Function Module DAY_IN_WEEK... pass the date to this FM and it will return the day in number..

Then use FM DAY_NAMES_GET and pass the number to this FM to get the actual Day as u want...

Hi,

You can use function module DATE_COMPUTE_DAY or DAY_IN_WEEK to get the numeric value of the day of the week. You can use function module WEEKDAY_GET to retrieve the language specific name of the week and an abbreviation of the name.

I hope this helps.

Sample code..

DATA : DATE like SCAL-DATE,

DAY LIKE SCAL-INDICATOR.

DATE = '20050728'.

CALL FUNCTION 'DATE_COMPUTE_DAY'

EXPORTING

DATE = DATE

IMPORTING

DAY = DAY.

CASE DAY.

WHEN 1.

WRITE 😕 'MONDAY'.

WHEN 2.

WRITE 😕 'TUESDAY'.

WHEN 3.

WRITE 😕 'WEDNESDAY'.

WHEN 4.

WRITE 😕 'THURSDAY'.

WHEN 5.

WRITE 😕 'FRIDAY'.

WHEN 6.

WRITE 😕 'SATURDAY'.

WHEN 7.

WRITE 😕 'SUNDAY'.

ENDCASE.

Cheers,

Simha.
