<b>date like sy-datum.</b> instead of type date

null

Hi ,

i cannot do this because it's existing code and it is in one of the include of VA02 ,

but how does it effect.

Thanks In Advance,

Hi,

What is the data type you have declared while placing this custom field in VA02. Try setting it as a date field.

Hi,

Declare in the include with customizing

date like sy-datum.

Hope it would solve the purpose..

Hi Kishore

As per my understanding, there is a custom field for date in Sales Order screen and it doesnt display you the dates on F4 Help.

As this is a custom field, please check the data type included for the same in Sales Order Tables: VBAK, VBAP...

Please check if the field is decalred with Built-In Datatype or with reference to a data element.

If itz with Built-In data type, please make sure that it is of type <b>DATS</b>.

If itz reference with a dataelement, try by changing to a different dataelement.

Hi ,

as you said it is a custom field on the sales order screen , but the F4 help is working for some(input selection) and it is not working for some others.

now that the code is so vast and highly customised changing the declaration of the field will affect in many places.

Hi Kishore

Maybe you can do a where-used list checking of the custom field in program SAPMV45A which might lead to some clues incase of any special handling.
