Get number of hours between two dates and two hours using factory calendar

Hello all,
I have the following requirement: I need to calculate the number of hours between two dates and two hours (start date- finish date and start hour-finish hour) or timestamps using a factory calendar. I must program it on CRM environment.
Does anybody know a function module that makes it?
Thanks in advance.
Carmen

Please check function module DURATION_DETERMINE.

How do i get number of days between 2 dates?

How do i get number of days between 2 dates?
and the result must be in int.
for example
Ex. startdate: 2006-06-01 enddate: 2006-06-30 and the result is: 30
how to do so? thx

mel
Iv'e used this method. It assumes startdate,enddate and days have been defined before but you could pass them as args.
void days()
    try
      Date d1 = DateFormat.getDateInstance().parse(startdate);
      Date d2 = DateFormat.getDateInstance().parse(enddate);
      long days = (d2.getTime()-d1.getTime())/1000/60/60/24;
      days = ""+days;
    catch (ParseException e)
      System.out.println("Invalid date format");
}It actually gets the duration in ms and divides down to days.

Chris

Getting number of days between 2 dates

Hello All,
I require the number of days between 2 dates.
The number of days is between low date : PR Date (not an input variable) and the high date.
I have created an customer exit variable to get sy-datum in made it as formula variable.
I have also created a formula variable for PR Date , and subtracted the 2 dates.
It is not giving the correct result.
Any suggestions.
Thanks & Regards,
VL

Read through this web link. It will show you how to calculate the days between 2 dates directly in your BEX query.
No exit needed to calculate this.

How to calculate number of days between fixed date and hire date in schema

i want to calculate the number of days between a fixed date en the hire date (infotype 041)
If i read the documentation right, i should use the following command:
HRS=YDXA02
Variable 3 (the x) is the fixed data.
My question is how do i program the variable x?
Let's say the date 01.01.2008
Any help would be welcome

I assume we are talking about PCR for payroll. In this case look at documentation for operation NUM:
OOOOOO
Xnnnnn
X     Table
nnnnn Table field
nn    Date type 'nn' from the Date Specifications infotype (0041)
     Date types are taken from table T548Y.
Your operation would look like:
NUM=Faaesb
      F          Fixed indicator for deadline calculation
       aa           Date type: Start date of period to be
                    calculated; if the date type is not 'nn,'
                    the second position is left blank.
         e          Unit, in which the duration is calculated:
                    T = days
                    W = week
s         End date of period to be calculated:
          (blank) End of current payroll period
          J        End of current calendar year
          A        Start of current calendar year
          B        Start of WPBP period
         No other specifications are possible.
So it depends on what kind of fixed date you need.
Hope it helps,
Carlos.

Firefox is displaying improper dates and times while using Google calendar, however they display correctly in Internet Explorer. Firefox has always worked right before, but not now.

The Google calendar's information is accurately saved on our end on this sample page.

Works for me on Linux.

getTime returns millsecond value of date object and the difference divided by no of milliseconds in a day should fetch you the difference in terms of days.This doesn't respect the DST. Use java.util.Calendar.

Substacting two dates and get result in months

Hi Friends
I have to subtract two dates and get the difference in months. Here's the sample data:
select DATE '2009-10-01' Date_value, 111 Cust_id, DATE '2009-10-22' Open_date from dual
union all
select DATE '2009-10-01', 112 , DATE '2009-10-15' from dual
union all
select DATE '2009-10-01', 113 , DATE '2009-10-5' from dual
union all
select DATE '2009-11-01', 111 , DATE '2009-10-22' from dual
union all
select DATE '2009-11-01', 112 ,DATE '2009-10-15' from dual
union all
select DATE '2009-11-01', 113 ,DATE '2009-10-22' from dualAnd here’s my query to get the difference in month:
SELECT cust_id, date_value, open_date,
       ROUND (ABS (date_value - open_date) / 365 * 12) diff_in_months
FROM tBut the output is unexpected:
CUST_ID     DATE_VALUE     OPEN_DATE     DIFF_IN_MONTHS
111     1/10/2009     22/10/2009     1

113     1/11/2009     22/10/2009     0Ideally, the output should be as per the following:
CUST_ID     DATE_VALUE     OPEN_DATE     DIFF_IN_MONTHS
111     1/10/2009     22/10/2009     0

113     1/11/2009     22/10/2009     1What is wrong in my query?

Hi Centinul
Found the resolution. When I use the following query, I get the perfect result:
SELECT cust_id, date_value, open_date,
       ROUND (ABS (MONTHS_BETWEEN (open_date, date_value))) months,
       ROUND (ABS (date_value - open_date) / 365 * 12) diff_in_months,
       MONTHS_BETWEEN (date_value,ADD_MONTHS (LAST_DAY (open_date), -1) + 1 ) final_val
FROM tAnd here's the output of all three columns:
CUST_ID     DATE_VALUE     OPEN_DATE     MONTHS     DIFF_IN_MONTHS     FINAL_VAL
111     1/10/2009     22/10/2009     1     1     0
112     1/10/2009     15/10/2009     0     0     0

Number of days between 2 dates

HI,
I am working on a program that needs to show number of days between 2 dates. When I scanned the function library, I only found a function to give you the number of years between dates. I can probably code this in ABAP but does anyone know if a function exists to do this.

Hi Suneela
Are you concern with the normal dates or do you have any concern with the Factory dates ?
Lets take both
1) Normal dates
It seems that you are trying to get the days between two dates , That you can simply get by subtracting one from the other or else by .
Assuming that you populated the dates just after the declaration .
Sample code
              Data : date1 like sy-datum,
                         Date2 like sy-datum ,
                         No_of_days type i.
              No_of_days = date1 date2.
Or Else the FM
     Days_between_two_dates
Sample code
   Data : date1 like sy-datum,
                         Date2 like sy-datum ,
                         No_of_days type i.
Call function days_between_two_dates
Exporting
    I_datum_bis   = Date2   Second date
    I_datum_von = date1    Start date
Importing
     E_tage = No_of_days
Exceptions
Days_method_not_defined = 1
Others = 2.
2) Factory dates
If You want to find out the difference based on factory calendar
Then convert the dates to factory calendar dates first and then simply subtract those factory calendar dates to get offset days based on factory calendar.
*Sample code *
   Data : date1 like sy-datum,
                         Date2 like sy-datum ,
                         No_of_days type i.
data: l_fac_date like SCAL-FACDATE ,   " Factory calendar: Factory
      l_fac_date2 like SCAL-FACDATE,
      l_fac_date1 like SCAL-FACDATE.
Perform get_factory_date using date1
                         Changing l_fac_date1.
Form get_factory_date using l_date
                         Changing l_l_fac_date.
IF NOT l_date1 IS INITIAL.
   CALL FUNCTION 'DATE_CONVERT_TO_FACTORYDATE'
     EXPORTING
CORRECT_OPTION                     = '+'
       DATE                               = l_date
       FACTORY_CALENDAR_ID                = 'AU' "
    IMPORTING
DATE                               =
     FACTORYDATE                        = l_l_fac_date
WORKINGDAY_INDICATOR               =
EXCEPTIONS
      CALENDAR_BUFFER_NOT_LOADABLE       = 1
       CORRECT_OPTION_INVALID             = 2
       DATE_AFTER_RANGE                   = 3
       DATE_BEFORE_RANGE                  = 4
       DATE_INVALID                       = 5
       FACTORY_CALENDAR_NOT_FOUND         = 6
       OTHERS                             = 7
   IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
     MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
             WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
   ENDIF.
ENDIF.
Endform.
Move l_fac_date to l_fac_date1.
*Do the same for the second date also i.e .
Perform get_factory_date using date2
                         Changing l_fac_date2.
No_of_days = l_fac_date1 - l_fac_date2.
Hope this will help you.

it's good for ideas but implementation a bit different
Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher Report Designer's Guide
This function provides a method to get the difference between two dates in the given locale. The dates need to be in "yyyy-MM-dd" format. This function supports only the Gregorian calendar. The syntax is as follows:
<?xdoxslt:date_diff(‘format’, ‘YYYY-MM-DD’, ‘YYYY-MM-DD’, $_XDOLOCALE, $_XDOTIMEZONE)?>
where
format is the time value for which the difference is to be calculated
Example:
<?xdoxslt:date_diff(‘d’, ‘2006-04-08’, ‘2006-04-01’, $_XDOLOCALE, ‘America/Los_Angeles’)?>
returns
-7

Pick list date must be between order date and cancellation date

Hi all
A client gets this error:
Pick list date must be between order date and cancellation date Message[173-89]
The date is between that range.
What else could be the reason for it.
Thanks

Hi
Since the message you received is very user friendly - date must be between....
I guess you have two situation
1.Either operation is incorrect
- Create a similar scenario in your test environment
-Are you receiving same error
-Test with only one item so far
-Check what is the result
2 . You probably need to upgrade your patch level
It might be coming from Application error
Hope this helpls

Number of days between to dates

Hello to all,
I would like to define a formula to calculate number of days between two dates and update the value in a key figure.
*operand: {Name of keyfigure,Fecha ini (Mes/Año),Fecha Fin (Mes/Año)}
DATA FECHAINI TYPE ZIOV_FEIN.
DATA FECHAFIN TYPE ZIOV_FFIM.
DATA INI             TYPE 0CALMONTH.
DATA FIN            TYPE 0CALMONTH.
DATA DIA_INI      TYPE D.
DATA DIA_FIN     TYPE D.
DATA DIAS          TYPE F.
FOREACH FECHAINI, FECHAFIN.
INI = FECHAINI.
FIN = FECHAFIN.
*C2DATE Determine end period date
DIA_INI = C2DATE(INI, E).
DIA_FIN = C2DATE(FIN, E).
DIAS = DIA_FIN - DIA_INI.
{ZIOV_DIAS,FECHAINI,FECHAFIN} = DIAS.
ENDFOR.
Problem: UPF057 type F conflicts with type D.
Help would be much appreciated.

Select a number of fields between one field and another

Hello,
Is there any way to make a SELECT to show a number of fields between one field and another,
without writting all the fields one by one ?
For example, I have one table with these fields:
TABLE EMPLOYEE:
ID_EMPLOYEE NAME PHONE CAR AGE MARRIED
and I just want to make a SELECT who shows only fields from NAME to AGE, but i don't want to
write in the SELECT all the fields one by one.
Is this possible?
Thank you very much.
Sorry for my english it's not very good.

Difference between master data and transactional data

Hi experts i have just started learning BW can u plz let me know the difference between Master data and Transactional data in bw ? and why is master data is first loaded before the transactional data ? thanks .....

Hi
Transaction data represents any transaction occured between two parties like Customer and Vendor.
We maintain id's to maintain the Customer and Vendor.
When we look at the id we don't have a clue like who is the customer, where does he live,,....
So all this info is maintained in Master data in three categories:
1. Attributes
2. Text
3. Hierarchies.
Collection of Attribute, Texts and Hierarchies is called master Data in BI/BW.
Eg: 0MATERIAL, 0CUSTOMER,,,,,
Master data: is data that remains unchanged over a long period of time. Master data contains information that is always needed in the same way. Characteristics can bear master data in BW. With master data you are dealing with attributes, texts or hierarchies.
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/58/a4513ce4af0a40e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
Master Data is one form of the historical data. There is no frequent changes in the data.Every application has it's own Master Data.
In BI the master Data has been divided into
Characterstics
Texts
Hierarchies
We can load Master Data through different ways.
Pls. find the below link

What is the Difference Between Sys Date and Effective Date ??

Hi Gurus,
Can any one pls let me know What is the Difference Between Sys Date and Effective Date ??
with regards
User600722

EFFECTIVE DATE usually refers to a date-tracked record (although not exclusively).
Date-tracked records in Oracle HR have an EFFECTIVE START DATE and an EFFECTIVE END DATE. The record is 'EFFECTIVE' between these dates. In reports, you often use SYSDATE to compare to these two dates to find the CURRENT effective record, e.g. SYSDATE BETWEEN EFFECTIVE START DATE AND EFFECTIVE END DATE.
When you make changes to a HR record, you can choose between DATE TRACKING options, such as CORRECT or UPDATE (there are others too). CORRECT will overwrite the record and replace the data with your changes. This is normally used when you need to correct something that is wrong. UPDATE will create a new version of the record from the EFFECTIVE START DATE you choose. It will also set the EFFECTIVE END DATE of the previous record to the day before your new record's EFFECTIVE START DATE. That enables a history of records to be maintained so you can see what your data looked like at ay one point in time.

Tim
