Floating point to date conversion

[former_member767881]

Do any Function module is available for converting the Date into floating point value. I have tried using FM- CTCV_CONVERT_DATE_TO_FLOAT but straight away using it is not working.

Can some help me is there any custom logic/ code additionally to be written along with this FM

Why do you want to convert a date in Float ??

floating appointment? 😄

Converting to a timestamp gives a decimal number. Is that what you mean? Look up the abap keyword documentation for CONVERT.

This conversion works well as you can see, no need of a function module!

DATA(float) = CONV f( CONV d( '20211005' ) ).
ASSERT float = 738069.

Hello experts,
Thank you for your suggestions
I am trying to convert the date format into the float format.

This I am doing as I need to pass the dates through IT-AUSP table ATFLV Field.

And the date is user input (SY-Datum) while datatype of ATFLV field is Float. So conversion needed.

Please suggest

As you can see in my answer, the date format is converted into the float format. Or maybe you expect a different conversion method?

Or in fact, maybe you don't want any value conversion?

DATA(date) = CONV d( '20211005' ).
DATA(ausp) = VALUE ausp( atflv = CONV string( date ) ).
ASSERT ausp-atflv = 20211005.
