    Hi
    i think this can't be done through any code like oracle uses to_char, to_date function.
    Just follow this
    http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2007/12/19/oracle-bi-ee-101332-dates-dates-and-dates/
    With this, wherever you have this column, you will be getting this format dates..
    if you don't want in reports you can change it by mentioning the data format for that paricular column in report, but for the same column, if you want different format at different places (for prompts), you can't do that..

  • How to change date format for FM ?

    Experts !
    i am trying to use FM DATE_TO_PERIOD_CONVERT. for this FM the input date formate is mmddyyyy
    but my variable returns in yyyymmdd. bcoz of that my FM doesnt understand the input date.
    how do i do this? i am very poor in abap skills so will not do too much of codeing to convert.
    thanks

    Thanks Gharu !
    I do get the correct formate using your code. but the problem if i debug my code goes till the FM and then it kicks it out. i dont know why.
    The data type what you have define in your code is not what i have in my code. is it bcoz of that.
    In your code..l_date type sydatum
    in my code ...l_date like sydatum <-----Do you think i sould make it type ?
    Also, in your code ..
    l_olddate(8) type c,
    l_newdate(8) type c,
    while in my code..
    l_olddate  LIKE sy-datum
    l_newdate  LIKE sy-datum
    Do u think i should change data type ?
    If yes , then it will be big change for me. can you make it according to my DATA TYPE ?
    thanks..i am waiting....

  • How to change date format in BR?

    Hi all!
    Does anybody know how to change date format in BR?
    I created global variable with type DateAsNumber and usage type run-time promt and used it in BR
    Then I launched a BR on the form and chose necessary date. Date stored in MM/DD/YYYY format, but I need DD/MM/YYYY.
    I tried to change format through Planning but then I recieved uncorect result(for instance, I selected 4(April)/14/2009 but it was stored as 4/02/2010)

    Hi,
    the date is always stored the same in Essbase. I think it's YYYYMMDD.
    You can change the format you enter the date in webforms and business rules by changing your planning application settings (Preferences->Display Options).
    Cheers.

    Hi,
    In Prompt:
    Try using EVALUATE function.
    Eg: Evaluate('TO_CHAR(%1,%2)' as character(30),"D5.Times"."Day Date",'DD-MON-YYYY')

  • How to change date format in OBIEE

    I have a need to change the date column to a varchar column in OBIEE..
    The date column stores data in the format of 'YYYY/MM/DD', I need to change this to a varchar column with this format 'YYYYMM'..

  • How to change Data Format

    I'm using Sql Developer vers. 1.1.2. for Oracle 8.1.7 and I can't change Data Format. Even if first I run "alter session set nls_date_format = 'DD/MM/YYYY';" and after I run "select data_field from table;" in the SQL Worksheet, it goes on reporting the field in format "MM/DD/YYYY HH:MI:SS". It seems to me as if the "alter session" doesn't work.
    I've got a problem with decimal separator too. I mean when I run "select salary_field from table;" and the item is for example 2300,32 the report gets null column even if I've set Decimal Separator to "," from Tools>NSL Parameters>Decimal Separator.
    I need help.
    Thanks in advance
    Marco

    Marco,
    It isn't really a great help, as you need to access 8.1.7, but the current version doesn't have this problem - it uses the current NLS_DATE_FORMAT setting to format the date, regardless of the NLS preferences.
    I have vague memories (1.1.2 has largely faded from my memory) that when they first introduced the NLS preferences that they took precedence over the DB NLS settings (ie date formatted in SQL Developer based on NLS preferences).
    On the decimal separator, I have other vague memories of problems if you didn't set both the Decimal and Group separator, although a quick search on the forum didn't highlight something that seemed the same as your problem. After logging on (ie with the NLS preferences as the DB NLS settings), what do you get if you the NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS parameter in the NLS_SESSION_PARAMETERS view? This should have two characters - the first one being the decimal separator and the second being the group separator.

  • Changing date format for some of the date columns in a subject area

    Hi,
    I have a requirement to change the date format for some of the date columns to dd-mon-yyy for only a particular subject area. Is there a feature available in the RPD which can help me do this?
    In Answers - Column Properties for a Particular column of a report, we can save the style and formatting as system wide default for the particular column or the data type, but that applies across subject areas.
    I tried with the config files too , but that too applies to all suject areas.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Gaurav

    Why don't you create 2 logical column derived from same date physical col and then change the format for one logical column and use it in Subject Area ?
