HI,

I am using a BDC to create an SO and the data is fetched from a table.

If i am entering the date in the format 20071001(yyyyddmm) in the table, i am getting the output as 10.01.0720 where as i should get as 10.01.2007. can anybody suggest a work around for the same

try using the statement

write w_date to f_date.

w_ date of type datum

f_date(10) type c.

or you can try using FM 'CONVERSION_EXIT_BEGDA_OUTPUT'

data v_date type d.

v_date = '20071001'.

data v_format type char10.

<b>write v_date to v_format using no edit mask.</b>

write v_format

use WRITE <S> TO <d> statement

Dear Peri,

This is a common problem, when carrying out BDC.

For example, while recording you met with the field --> MKPF-BUDAT.

• Go to SE11 --> MKPF --> Search for BUDAT --> Double click on the Data Element i.e. BUDAT --> Double Click on the domain DATUM --> You can see under the block Output Characteristics : Output Length = 10.

While declaring the TYPES Structure, make it CHAR(10).

Consider this technique as the Rule-of-Thumb while doing BDC.

try this one

write sy-datum to ZIE02-DATSL DDMMYY

[Former Member]

ur system format is mm.dd.yyyy

sap format is always yyyymmdd

data: v_date like sy-datum.

write date into v_date.

use v_date in ur program which will be converted according to logon date set in profile.

Hi,

Try this code.

Data: v_date(8) type c value '20070101'.

Data: v_temp type sy-datum,

v_final(10) type c.

v_temp = v_date.

write v_temp to v_final.
