'DATE_TO_PERIOD_CONVERT'

ABAP function to convert Current Date to Current Period

FIRST_DAY_IN_PERIOD_GET'

to check if its the first day of the period

) 'LAST_DAY_IN_PERIOD_GET'

to check if its the last day of the period

The function module 'LAST_DAY_IN_PERIOD_GET' and 'FIRST_DAY_IN_PERIOD_GET' do not take into consideration the Factory Calendar.
