Function module CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL

[Former Member]

Function module CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL is used to convert date to SAP internal format.Does it work if the flat file date is in "DD/MM/YYYY" format or "MM/DD/YYYY" format?

Hi Arun,

Sure it will work , but your flat file date format should be matched with user External format. say your file has format YYYY/MM/DD and your external format is same then it will work otherwise it fails.

Hi Arun,

          This FM CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL will only accept the date format which is in only dd.mm.yyyy . The other it will not accept. Once try this FM in SE37 .

Thanks,

No Sheshadri,

It accepts the format same as user external format set in transaction SU3. go to SU3 change your external format of date then Try. It works only if date format is same as external format set in SU3.

Hi Sheshadri,

               I tested in se37.As said by Ashish it works fine only if flat file date is in same format as date in SU3.
