SAPScript.. DATE MASK problem

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I wonder SET DATE MASK works only on SY-DATUM field or any other fields which are displaying date??

Reason I'm asking in PO output &CDPOS-VALUE_NEW& and &CDPOS-VALUE_OLD& displaying dates.. If apply DATE MASK on these fields it's not working...

Any suggestions please......

Hi,

Yes, the date mask will work only for the variables with type DATS. i think the value_new and value_old are character fields and the mask will not work.

you might need to pass this values to a temporary variable and use it for Date mask.

Hope this helps

/: SET DATE MASK = 'MM/DD/YYYY'

• &CDPOS-VALUE_NEW&

declare the fields VALUE_NEW and VALUE_OLD type sy-datum,

then in sript use SET DATE MASK command immediately before placing the vaue.
