Hi mayank,

You can write the code fo this one in the Flow logic --> program lines, In the Program line, just write this lines.

Lets say your date field id G_date.

Data: L_date type sy-datum.

Data: C_date(10) type C.

Move G_Date to L_Date.

Write L_date to C_Date.

So, here the C_Date field will have the user format date.

We need to make sure that all dates are printed in the format DD-MMM-YYYY where MMM is a description (ie Jan, Feb, Mar, etc)

Use the SET DATE MASK In order to get this done.

Example:

/: SET DATE MASK = 'DD- MMM-YYYY'

&DATE&

To get the abbreviated and full forms of the names of the months are stored in the language dependent TTDTG table under the following keys

u2022 %%SAPSCRIPT_MMM_mm: abbreviated month name

This gives month in MMM format u2013 example u2013 JUN
