Check this...

DATA: v_char(6).

v_char = '121706'.

DATA: v_date TYPE sydatum.

v_date+4(2) = v_char(2).

v_date6(2) = v_char2(2).

CONCATENATE '20' v_char+4(2) INTO v_date(4).

CALL FUNCTION 'DATE_CHECK_PLAUSIBILITY'

EXPORTING

date = v_date

EXCEPTIONS

plausibility_check_failed = 1

OTHERS = 2.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

WRITE: / 'INvalid date'.

ELSE.

WRITE: / 'Correct date'.

ENDIF.

hi

good

try this function moudle

DATE_CHECK_PLAUSIBILITY Check to see if a date is in a valid format for SAP. Works well when validating dates being passed in from other systems.

thanks

try to pass this as a parameter .

this should be like ur user settings date .

like mm/dd/yyyy or mm.dd.yyyy

since u r referring to type sy-datum in the selection screen itself if u pass a wrong format this will throw an error .

execute the code ..

parameters : p_datum like sy-datum.

CALL FUNCTION 'DATE_CHECK_PLAUSIBILITY'
EXPORTING
date = p_datum
EXCEPTIONS
plausibility_check_failed = 1
OTHERS = 2.
IF sy-subrc <> 0 .
WRITE: / 'Wrong format in date'.
ELSE.
WRITE: / 'Correct date'.
ENDIF.
