How to get system date year and do the substring / concate ?
So dimension category source will be PLAN_<YYYY>, destination = FORECAST_<YYYY>
Dimension source = <YYYY>.JAN,<YYYY>.FEB,<YYYY>.MAR,<YYYY>.APR,<YYYY>.MAY,<YYYY>.JUN,<YYYY>.JUL,<YYYY>.AUG,<YYYY>.SEP,<YYYY>.OCT,<YYYY>.NOV,<YYYY>.DEC
Depend on year system date.
Thank you.

Stuart,How are you storing OnSaleDate. If you are using OnSaleDate as an attribute dimension then you can write a Custom Defined Function to either:1- query your system for the current date and return the number of seconds that have elapsed since 1/1/1970. This is by definition the begining of the Epoch and how Essbase treats Attribute Dimensions of the Date type.public static long getDateInSeconds() { Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(); return cal.getTime().getTime()/1000;}2- Write a Custom Defined Function that will accept the OnSaleDate and return the number of days sincepublic static double daysSince(double myDate) { return (getDateInSeconds()-myDate )/86400;}

How to get system date and time?

Can someone show me a code on how to get system date and time.
Thanks!

there is one really easy way to get system time, the api gives a great example of code on this. use gregorian calendar, which you'll find in the api under GregorianCalendar. You only need to create one instance of GC, ie Calendar time = new GregorianCalendar();
you save seconds, minute and hours into int values, so you don't have to access the system time every second, you can create a thread which adds one to the int second value, if oyu see what i mean, for example, i have saved the hours, minutes and seconds as int values;
int hour, minute, second;
i can then create a thread (Thread thread = new Thread(this) and run it like:
Calendar time;
int hour, minute, second;
Thread thread = null;
public MyTime() {
hour= time.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY);
minute = time.get(Calendar.MINUTE);
second = time.get(Calendar.SECOND);
if(thread == null) {
thread = new Thread(this);
thread.start();
public void run() {
Thread t = Thread.currentThread();
while(thread == t) {
thread.sleep(1000);
second++;
if(second > 59)
minute++;
if(minute>59)
hour++;
formatTime();
public void formatTime() {
second = (second > 59? 0 : second);
minute = (minute > 59? 0 : minute);
hour = (hour > 23? 0 : hour);
System.out.println(hour+":"+minute+":"+second);
public static void main(String[] args) {
new MyTime();
I know this looks like gibberish but it should work. If not, try to fix the problem, i have written from memory really but i guarantee you, this gets the time then every second, simply adds one to the second and then formats time. You can also access the day, month and year then format them using the above code. I don't like giving code since you should really do these things yourself but it is 2:04am, i have nothing better to do and i am not tired so i did you a favour - i have become what i always did not want to, someone ho stays upall night writing code.

How to get system date automatically in date field once page is loaded

How to get system date in as2

this is not working
var currDate:Date = new Date();
txtTest.text = currDate; box is empty
also when I find something that works, to parse out yyyy mm and dd
I have seen these examples, not sure at this point which one would work or both?
var currentDate=new Date();
var month=currentDate.getMonth();
var day=currentDate.getDate();
var year=currentDate.getFullYear();
or
var mm = currentDate.month
var yyyy = currentDate.fullyear
var dd = currentDate.day
I need to assemble the date like this: yyyymmdd, using it for date compares

If the first code you showed is not displaying the date, then your problem is likely with what you have done for the textfield... the code works when the textfield is properly configured.
Make sure you are assigning the instance name to the Textfield where it says Instance Name in the properties panel. Make sure the color of the text in the textfield is not the same as the background color.

How to get / configure data in Tcode "MCTG" for "SIS: Sales Office Analysis Selection "?

Hello SAP Guru's,
How to get / configure data in Tcode "MCTG" for "SIS: Sales Office Analysis Selection "? We have implemented SAP ECC 6.0 EHP4 version in the organization. If anybody have any idea, need help .
Thanks in Advance.
Prashant Kunjir

Have a look at the following note:-
Note 1573200 - How to restructure the statistic data of the sales information system (SIS)
But before trying to carry out the process as detailed in the above note, first check with other SIS reports like MCTA etc., and no reports are showing correctly, then you can proceed. Otherwise, you need to raise an OSS message with SAP.
