I created a table with column zdate char 10 , now i need to change it to sy-datum how i can do it.

The likelihood is that you won't able to save the data as it will be corrupted.

The first thing you need to do is change the data type in your table then run transaction SE14 for the table. Make sure though that that flag 'Save Data' is selected before executing the transaction.
