Hi,

Use the followin fn module, it will not accept dd/mm/yyyy format. But if you give date it will change it to dd/mm/yyyy format. SO use this, pass the date, if sy-subrc ne 0, then user has given DD/MM/YYYY format .

Hi,

Use DATE_GET_WEEK FM.

It takes a date and should return a week. If FM returns error it would mean that a date is invalid.

EX:

CALL FUNCTION 'DATE_GET_WEEK'

EXPORTING

date = sy-datum

IMPORTING

week = ws_curr_week

EXCEPTIONS

date_invalid = 1

OTHERS = 2.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

• MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

• WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.
