Hi,

can you mention the error what it is throwing.

Hi Chandrika,

Error analysis

An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.

The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_TYPE', was

not caught and

therefore caused a runtime error.

The reason for the exception is:

The call to the function module "HR_99S_DATE_ADD_SUB_DURATION" is incorrect:

The function module interface allows you to specify only

fields of a particular type under "IM_DURATION".

The field "V_DURMM" specified here is a different

field type

.

Hi,

Step 1: take the date like Sy-datum in declaration.

Step 2: tkae the month by setting the offset 4(2) to the date.

Step 3: subtruct 6 from it.

You will get the result.

Check the code:

parameters:
p_date type sy-datum.

data:
temp_month type i.

temp_month = p_date+4(2) - 6.

p_date+4(2) = temp_month.

write:p_date.

change accordingly in your FM code

Hi friend,

if i have month FEB then this logic will not be applicable, i am right? date calcuation should be done dynamically as per the current date.

ex. if i run the report for every week and fetching the records for the past 6 months as of run date.

thanks,

Hi purna

Do coding like this

data : v_date type datum,
l_date type datum,
v_durmm type PSEN_DURATION.
v_durmm-durmm = 6.
move sy-datum to v_date.


CALL FUNCTION 'HR_99S_DATE_ADD_SUB_DURATION'
EXPORTING
IM_DATE = v_date
IM_OPERATOR = '-'
IM_DURATION = v_durmm
IMPORTING
EX_DATE = l_date.

write l_date.

Hi Purna,

data : v_date type datum,

l_date type datum,

v_durmm type PSEN_DURATION-durmm value 6.

move sy-datum to v_date.

CALL FUNCTION 'HR_99S_DATE_ADD_SUB_DURATION'

EXPORTING

IM_DATE = v_date

IM_OPERATOR = '-'

IM_DURATION = v_durmm

IMPORTING

EX_DATE = l_date.

write l_date.

u double click on function 'HR_99S_DATE_ADD_SUB_DURATION' and then click the tab exporting & importing to see what is the type of IM_DATE and EX_DATE and then u declare v_date and I_date of the same type ...

i hope this will help u..

Thanks & Regards
