      day(2).
year = '2006'.

date+0(4) = year.

How to convert any date format to default US format using javascript???

Hi,
I was trying to convert a date format to default US date format. The date format will vary according to different regions (It can be dd/MM/yyyy or MM/dd/yyyy or yyyy/dd/MM or any). I need to convert it in to MM/dd/yyyy always (US Format). Please give some
solutions for the same.
Warm Regards,
Tony Joy

hi
it is not trivial task in common case. We faced with similar issue when tried to localize date times in display templates in Sharepoint 2013 depending on site's locale, which can be done only via javascript. In order to do it you need to add date time locale
information from server side to client side, e.g. by defining global variable. See the following article for details:
Localize datetimes in display templates in Content by search web parts in Sharepoint 2013. I extended OTB global object _spPageContextInfo with new property (as far as I remember this object is also available in Sharepoint 2010):
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(function() {
if (typeof (_spPageContextInfo) != "undefined" &&
_spPageContextInfo != null) {
<%
var ci = new CultureInfo(1033);
var cultureSerialized = new JavaScriptSerializer().Serialize(
new
name = ci.Name,
dateTimeFormat = ci.DateTimeFormat,
numberFormat = ci.NumberFormat
%>
_spPageContextInfo.currentCultureSerialized = <%= cultureSerialized %>;
</script>
Having different date time formats for your locale, you may use
Date.localeFormat function from MS Ajax for formatting the date in specific format. If in your case format is predefined you may hardcode it without adding DateTime formats from server side.

Function module to change Date from YYYYMMDD to DD.MM.YYYY

Hi
PLease tell me the function module that will convert date from YYYYMMDD to DD.MM.YYYY
Thanks

Hi,
data lv_date1 type sy-datum.
data lv_date2(12).
lv_date1 = '20070123'.
concatenate lv_date16(2) lv_date14(2) lv_date1+0(4) into lv_date2
separated by '.' .
is what you require to do;
now lv_date2 = 23.01.2007.
Also look for conversion routine "CONVERSION_EXIT_PDATE_OUTPUT"
EG: call function CONVERSION_EXIT_PDATE_OUTPUT
exporting input = lv_date1
importing output = lv_date2.
Thanks,

I am trying to load data from r/3, and i have date format as MM.DD.YYYY in source system.how can i convert this into YYYYMMDD format in transfer rules(I know that we have to write a routine in transfer rules).Could anybody help me out pl?..pl give me conversion routine for it.
Here BW Filed is 0DATE and R/3 Filed is ZZDATE.
regards
murali.

Hi,
Try to under stand what I am asking :
<b>What is the domain(or data type) used for the ZZDATE field.</b>
Ok ,
If some records are having proper format and others are having wrong format, even we canot correct this with routine also. So in this case you have to edit manually at PSA, then do upload.
You are right, when we are populating data to ODS , if there is any wrong format of value, it will not disply the error at the time of loading .It will through the error at the time of activation.

Working with SAP Data Format yyyy.mm.dd in data services

Hi,
I had 2 questions about date formats coming from SAP to DS .
1) I am trying to convert date fieild from SAP that is formated to yyyy.mm.dd to mm/dd/yyyy but I am not having any luck .. I am using the to_date function when I run this below I get null values in my template table . I think it has to do with me not stating my input date format but cannot seem to get the correct syntax's any ideas ?
2) Does Data Services recognize dates which are formatted as yyyy.mm.dd ?? When I put I added a column to a template table and added the sys date command it returned the sys date as yyyy.mm.dd BUT when I try a fiscal_day function (which should brings back the number of days between the input (my SAP source date ) and the sys date which are formatted the same (yyyy.mm.dd) I get a format error (input parameter 2009.03.10 is not valid) . any ideas ?
Thanks for your time,
Brett

Hello Brett
to_date convert STRING to date based on input format.
As i understand your source data not in string format.Is this correct?
Use combination to_char->to_date for your transformation
