Split SY-DATUM

[Former Member]

Hi.. I am new in abap.

Tell me which function module which splits SY-DATUM into its constituents parts.

Function modules hampers performance for a program as whole function group is load into program memory at runtime.

So if it is for minimal requirement

Use: offsets.

Data:W_Date type sy-datum value sy-datum,

W_month(2),

W_day(2),

W_year(4).

w_year = w_date+0(4).

w_month = w_date+4(2).

w_day = w_date+6(2).

Hi,

try this function module.

HR_IN_GET_DATE_COMPONENTS

OR

write : sy-datum+0(4).( gives year )

sy-datum+4(2) (gives month )

sy-datum+6(2) (gives day )

data : date(2) type c,
       month(2) type c,
       year(4) type c.

date = sy-datum+6(2).
month = sy-datum+4(2).
year = sy-datum+0(4).

not sure, but you can assign it to a string type variable then do the usual

str_year = str_var+0(4).

str_mon = str_var+4(2).

str_day = str_var+6(2).

Hi,

You can try this FM

CALL FUNCTION 'HR_IN_GET_DATE_COMPONENTS'
  EXPORTING
    IDATE                               = sy-datum
  IMPORTING
    DAY                                 = lv_day
    MONTH                               = lv_month
    YEAR                                = lv_year
    STEXT                               = lv_stext
    LTEXT                               = lv_ltext
EXCEPTIONS
   INPUT_DATE_IS_INITIAL               = 1
   TEXT_FOR_MONTH_NOT_MAINTAINED       = 2
   OTHERS                              = 3.

Hi ,

Better option will be to use offset , as the sy-datum is always of the format YYYYMMDD.

Hi,

I hope you know that using function module to the program includes the whole function group in the program till the program terminates which takes lots of space in the memory and might effect on runtime....

hence its better to use the normal code instead of going for a function module...

to split ituse offsets which would be the best way..

data = sy-datum+6(2).
month = sy-datum+4(2).
year = sy-datum+0(4).

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION :

to know more on data validations and leap year check you can go to wiki and type in the respective keywords say data validations and leap year.

hi:

Data:

my_date like sy-datum,

year(4),

month(2),

day(2).

year = my_date(4).

month = my_date+4(2).

day = my_date+6(2).

Another way is to use the function module HR_IN_GET_DATE_COMPONENTS

Hi,

Test the following Sample Code.

DATA: date LIKE sy-datum,
      day(2),
      month(2),
      year(4),
      stext LIKE t247-ktx,
      ltext LIKE t247-ltx,
      userdate(10).

date = sy-datum.

CALL FUNCTION 'HR_IN_GET_DATE_COMPONENTS'
  EXPORTING
    idate                         = date
  IMPORTING
    day                           = day
    month                         = month
    year                          = year
    stext                         = stext
    ltext                         = ltext
    userdate                      = userdate
  EXCEPTIONS
    input_date_is_initial         = 1
    text_for_month_not_maintained = 2
    OTHERS                        = 3.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
* MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
*         WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.

WRITE: / day,/ month,/ year, / stext, / ltext, / userdate.

Kind Regards,

Faisal

DATA: day(10) TYPE c,
      month(2) TYPE c,
      year(4) TYPE c,
      date type sy-datum.
date = sy-datum.
CALL FUNCTION 'HR_IN_GET_DATE_COMPONENTS'
  EXPORTING
    idate                               = date
 IMPORTING
   day                                 = day
   month                               = month
   year                                = year.
WRITE: day, month, year.
