SE37 and test function module

[Former Member]

I have an importing parameter in function module interface, type BEGDA (type DATUM), default value SY-DATUM.

When I execute test function module via SE37 and F8, the default value gets value "02....20.3" instead of 03.02.2012 as set up in SU01 for my user.

What can be wrong?

Hi,

Please check the user profile once again.

I checked in my system. User profile has DD.MM.YYYY

In SE37->F8, it shows 06.03.2012 only.

Hi ,

You just enter ddmmyyy format that and run.

it is a custom function module Z*. I created the same function module on another system and during test in F8 date is displayed correctly.

I cannot put there date in internal format YYYYMMDD because in test mode user has to put external date format defined in user settings.

Hi,

Then try with conversions.

type DATUM has built in conversion.

It is a pure problem with SE37 and test mode, so if do not read with understanding the problem, please do not answer obvoius things.

At the risk of also incurring your scorn, let me add that I cannot make this fail, using exactly what you have in the original post. Obviously, something unusual is happening this client/instance, or in code that is manipulating the incoming date value.... my dd.mm.yyyy input defaulted to sy-datum shows 20120306 in begda duringe execution (in debug). Without being able to debug the mentioned FM at every step, it would be hard to pinpoint a specific problem.
