the date format is different from country to country.........., the necessity to change the date format based on requirement...

<b>WRITE .... <f> <option>.</b>

WRITE DATE <option>.

Option Function

DD/MM/YY Separators as defined in user’s master record.

MM/DD/YY Separators as defined in user’s master record.

DD/MM/YYYY Separators as defined in user’s master record.

MM/DD/YYYY Separators as defined in user’s master record.

DDMMYY No separators.

MMDDYY No separators.

YYMMDD No separators.

<b>example:</b>

WRITE: sy-datum,

/ sy-datum yymmdd.

output:

you can also use these function modules to convert date..

CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL.

CONVERT_DATE_TO_EXTERNAL.
