hi,

For finding the difference between two dates, there is no need of function module. We can get it by just simple subtraction.

data:

date1 like sy-datum,

date2 like sy-datum.

v_diff = date1 - date2.

Please find the link

Here you can find the function modules with examples.

hi Clara,

why do you need FM for that..

data: date1 type sy-datum,
      date2  type sy-datum.

data: diff type i.

diff = date1 - date2.
