Function module for DATE

[Former Member]

I want to add days (numeric vales) to date. For example 03/27/2006 + 3 days = 03/30/2006.

Is there any FM for this?

Hi Arpit,

You can try this FM <b>RP_CALC_DATE_IN_INTERVAL</b>.

call function 'RP_CALC_DATE_IN_INTERVAL'
         exporting
              date      = sy-datum
              days      = 3
              months    = 0
              signum    = '+'
              years     = 0
         importing
              calc_date = wa_date.

Hope this will help.

Hi,

another option can be use function module SALP_CALC_DATE

IN_RECTYPE D (for Days)

IN_NBR_DWXMQY 10 (no of days)

IN_DATE (start date)

thanks

Hi Arpit,

You can directly add days to any date.No FM is required.

First you need to get the data into internal format. Then you can just add 3 days to it.

report zrich_0001 .


data: date(10) type c value '03/27/2006'.
data: datum type sy-datum.

start-of-selection.

  call function 'CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL'
       exporting
            date_external = date
       importing
            date_internal = datum.


  datum = datum + 3.

  write:/ datum.

Hi,

U can use the function module 'DATE_IN_FUTURE' to add or subtract days to date.

If your date is in a field defined as a date field, just add your number to it.
