Formatting Date and Time in Smartforms.

Hello,
I'm a newbie and I'm working with smartforms.
My requirement is to get the following format of date and time in a text within a template.
'MMM DD HH:MM'
Like : Jan 01 12:45
I have tried SAPScript Commands like 'SET DATE MASK' but that doesn't appear to work.
Do I have to use a Function Module?
Please help out. A sample code will be appreciated!
Regards & Thanks,
Arun G Nair

Hi,
please see this code
DATA: V_DATE1 TYPE STRING
SELECT SINGLE LTX FROM T247
   INTO MONTH_NAME
   WHERE SPRAS = SY-LANGU
   AND MNR = SY-DATUM+4(2).
CONCATENATE MONTH_NAME SY-DATUM+6(2) DATE1(4)
    INTO V_DATE1 SEPARATED BY SPACE.

Convert XML string into an abap format date and time

Hi,
Does anyone know of a method or a function module in ABAP which converts XML string into an abap format date and time.
Here is a part of the xml that I want to convert.
<ns2:EventDateTime>2009-07-02T10:13:45+10:00</ns2:EventDateTime>
<ns2:EventMessageTransmissionDateTime>2009-07-02T10:13:45.987+10:00</ns2:EventMessageTransmissionDateTime>
Currently EventDateTime and EventMessageTransmissionDateTime are type XSDDATETIME_Z and these are converted to proper dates and times. We will be changing these fields to a STRING instead of XSDDATETIME_Z. The reason for this is to make the field more versatile. The customer would be receiving dates with Zulu (2009-09-23T12:00:00Z), with offsets (2009-09-23T12:00:00+10:00/-10:00) and just local timestamp (2009-09-23T12:00:00). With this, we need to make the date fields as string
to be able to accept the various date formats (esp. the local timestamp).
I am looking for a standard function module or method that will convert the xml string to a proper date and time abap format.
Would appreciate anyone's help!
Thanks.

Hi,
I didnot under stand your first question coulf you be more specfic.
2. Ans : In general , we will follow the below steps
--First we we check for the file is picked or no, if not see the Sender side CC parameters like mode and path details
--If file was picked then we need to check whether we are using the File content conversion parameters or not if yes we need to check the FCC parameters ,
Goto RWB-Channelmonitoring by the following link
http://host:port/mdt/channelmonitorservlet
select the sender side CC name and check for errors
If no errors in above, goto SXMB_MONI for Integration Engine xml processing , check for successful or error occured black or red color
--if success in SXMB_MONI then we need to check in RWB as above channel monitor now select the receiver side CC
If no errors then check for output file is placed intarget or not
Please reward points if it helps

Menu bar date and time format in Lion

Is there a way to change the formatting of the date and time shown in the menu bar in Lion? I've been googling for a while, but can't find a solution. At the moment the time has a very unusual format of <hh:mm.ss>. Note the '.' before seconds. What I want to achieve is to change that dot to a colon as it normally is (and was in Leopard and earlier, don't know about Snow Leopard), ie. <hh:mm:ss>. I've checked the date and time formats in system settings several times, but those have no effect on the menu bar. When I set the clock to display an analogue icon and click on it, the date and time in the popup menu are shown correctly using the full format.

Well ofcourse I am. And no, I am not using a third party utility. This functionality has been available in OSX for ages.
I never noticed that option!
It works ok for me (with a colon, not a dot).
Is it possible you have a dead pixel where the top dot of the colon should be?

Aperture was not able to adjust the date and time of the master file "2008-06-22 at 14-41-14.jpg" because it has a format that does not permit date modification.

I can't seem to find a way to update the date/time of a master file. There is a format issue but I can't seem to figure out how to correct it.

Can you post an ipconfig /all from the server and the DC?

Validation on data and time format

Hi
In a flat file a date and time fill in but user. And the data and time format should always be fill in with the format <DDMMYYYY> <HHMMSS>
is there a FM which check whether user has put the wrong date format such as <YYYYMMDD> or <MMDDYYYY> instead for the the one mention above.
Please advise whether there is a FM which check on the format on the time stamp also.
Note: the input of the data and time is done by the user.
Thank

Hi,
       use the new OOPs concept,
PARAMETERS dateTYPE c LENGTH 10.
DATA matcher TYPE REF TO cl_abap_matcher.
* For date
matcher = cl_abap_matcher=>create( pattern = `[0-9]{1,2}/[0-9]{1,2}/[0-9]{2,4}`
                                   ignore_case = 'X'
                                   text = date ).
IF matcher->match( ) IS INITIAL.
MESSAGE 'Wrong Format' TYPE 'I'.
ELSE.
MESSAGE 'Format OK' TYPE 'I'.
ENDIF.
like dis pattern for time :
[0-9]{1,2}:[0-9]{2}
pattern for timestamp:
[0-9]{1,2}/[0-9]{1,2}/[0-9]{2,4} [0-9]{1,2}:[0-9]{2}

How to change date and time format

Hi experts,
Can i know how to change the date and time format?
I want the date format to be dd-mmm-yyyy and time format to be hh:mm:ss
These date and time is in my sapscript form.
I make use of PERFORM function in sapscript.
This is the code in my print program.
FORM get_actlog_QA TABLES in_tab STRUCTURE itcsy
                       out_tab STRUCTURE itcsy.
   DATA: object TYPE string, "
        qaname LIKE JCDS-USNAM, "NAME for engineering process, QA Manager

MOVE in_tab-value TO object.
select * into CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE lt_jcds

    AND ( stat = 'E0005' )
    AND inact = ''.
Loop at lt_jcds into wa_jcds.
      qaname = wa_jcds-USNAM.
      qadate = wa_jcds-UDATE.
      qatime = wa_jcds-UTIME.
   READ TABLE out_tab INDEX 1.
   MOVE qaname TO out_tab-value.
   MODIFY out_tab INDEX sy-tabix.
   READ TABLE out_tab INDEX 2.
   MOVE qadate TO out_tab-value.
   MODIFY out_tab INDEX sy-tabix.
   READ TABLE out_tab INDEX 3.
   MOVE qatime TO out_tab-value.
   MODIFY out_tab INDEX sy-tabix.
endloop.
clear wa_jcds.
ENDFORM.
This is my PERFORM in sapscript.

I want to change the date format to 12-MAR-2008
and the time format to 11:55:36
Can anyone please suggest on how to solve this?
Thank you.

Hi,
Before assigning the QADATE value you can write the logic to display 20080312   as 12-MAR-2008 taking the offset values .
Like
qadate = wa_jcds-UDATE.
qatime = wa_jcds-UTIME.
lw_year    = qadate(4).
lw_month = qadate+4(2).
lw_date    = qadate+6(2).
case lw_month.
when 1.
when 2.
        concatenate lw_date '-FEB-' lw_year into qadate.
when 3.
      concatenate lw_date '-MAR-' lw_year into qadate.
endcase.
READ TABLE out_tab INDEX 2.
MOVE qadate TO out_tab-value.
MODIFY out_tab INDEX sy-tabix.
And you can also change the timeformat also .
then assign that value to qatime .Then
READ TABLE out_tab INDEX 3.
MOVE qatime TO out_tab-value.
MODIFY out_tab INDEX sy-tabix.
I think this helps you.

Rajitha.

Date and time formatting not responding

I'm trying to total a column based on a date or date window. My formula looks like this.
SUMIF(Date,B1,'$')
I have 2 tables. The table with the formula references the other table, and compares Date in table 1 to B1 in table 2. B1 is a date I enter to see a specific total for that day only. It only works if all the times of the date window are 12:00:00 AM. , and the B1 times are the same ..... Even though times are unimportant to the totals I need, and both are formatted to "none" and do. It show.
So, how do I total a specific date with various times, but all the same date? I have a sample file if it will make more sense to see it.
Not that it matters, but I am doing this on an iPad, but the formula still did not respond correctly on Mavericks either. Unless I set all times equal to B1.
Sorry if I didn't explain very well. I'm new at this formula thing.
Thanks
Jeff

Hi Jeff,
The entered date in B1 will have it's time part set to 00:00:00 (midnight, at the beginning of that date). To use SUMIF to filter the date and time values in Table 1, you would need to write a single condition that would accept all date and time values falling on the date in BI, and reject all date and time values falling on days before or after that date.
SUMIFS allows you to specify multiple conditions, all of which must be met to acept a test value and add its associated sum value to the total. Here's an example:
The formula in B1 of Table 2 is shown below:
B2: =SUMIFS(Table 1 :: B,Table 1 :: $A,">="&B1,Table 1 :: $A,"<"&(B1+1))
Syntax: =SUMIFS(sum-values,test-values,condition,test-values,ˆcondition)

How do you change the date and time format in Pages

I've tried changing the date and time format a number of times for Pages but it does not change. I'm going to the System Preferences/Language and Text and Formats. I make the changes click on OK and go back to Pages. NO change.

Hi Uncle,
Page 116 of the Pages'09 User Guide: Control Click the date, Edit Date and Time.
Date and time can also be in a table. Format the table cell.
The User Guide is well worth a read. Download it from the Help menu in Pages.

Please fix date and time formatting in Hub and Calendar

Hello,
During initial setup I have used "English" as a setup language, but have since then changed it to "Croatian".
In BlackBerry Hub, Calendar and Lock screens day and month names are still displayed and formatted in English.
I noticed this bug briefly reported in another thread, but it is burried and not clearly visible, hence I'm putting it here by itself.
This screenshot of Hub list proves language is in Croatian, but you can see "Friday, Augus..." in the swipped BlackBerry Hub.
In addition to resolving this bug, please consider implementing "formatting" setting under "Date and Time" so that a user can pick a formatting that is indipendent of their language. For example, a short list of predefined selections such as:
<Day name>, <Month name> <Day number>, <Year>
<Month day> <Month name>, <Year>.
<Year>-<Month number>-<Day number>
Thank you in advance for your consideration. Regards,
Hrvoje Solc

Can you describe your problem a bit more. How are you passing the data, what is the error being seen in excel

Not able to adjust date and time - format does not permit

Hello,
I just scanned one old photo as a JPG and then imported it to Aperture 2, I renamed the file 1976-07-01_01.jpg based on the date the pic was taken. Then I tried to adjust the date and time in Aperture but got this error window:
"Unable to adjust master file
Aperture was not able to adjust the date and time of the master file "pic.jpg" because it has a format that does not permit date modification."
What next?

I am having a similar problem. The time is off by 12 hours exactly (ahead). When I touch date and time, screen goes black for less than a second and then reverts to main screen with all of the icons. I have first generation touch and just noticed this problem. All of the software is up to date. Any one know of a fix for this?

Date and time format please

I have a date and time held separately eg. int day, int month, int year. same with hours seconds and minutes
Is there an easy way to format this information into date and time please!!

You might just build a string and convert it to a Date.
                 import java.util.*;
                 import java.text.*;
     /** getDateFromString converts a String to a Date according to the szPattern format.
      ** The szPattern format is based on a SimpleDateFormat custom format
      ** or the Date.toString( ) output format as a default
     public     Date     getDateFromString( String stringDate, String szPattern )     {
          SimpleDateFormat dateFormatter;
          Date myDate = new Date( );
          if( szPattern.length( ) <= 0 )
               szPattern = new String( szDefaultPattern );
          dateFormatter = new SimpleDateFormat( szPattern, currentLocale );
          try {
               myDate = dateFormatter.parse( stringDate );
          } catch( ParseException e ) {
               P.rintln( e );
          return( myDate );
     }The following class variables are defined elsewhere:
currentLocale = new Locale("en","US");
szDefaultPattern = "EEE MMM d HH:mm:ss z yyyy";
