Authorization in BDC session (date format)

Hi All,
I have a very peculiar problem, When I am executing a Background job (XK15) sometimes the job is successful and sometimes it is failing. When I am checking the error (SM35)it is showing as Date format (MM/DD/YYYY). My data format is same as MM/DD/YYYY but observed that under authorization it is taking different users.Sometimes it is taking my user id and the jobs are successful.
I feel that when it is taking different user ids for the sessions executed by me it is taking the date format of those user ids and I am getting the date format error.
Formatting error in the field RV13A-DATAB;
see next message XK15 1 SAPMV13A 1806 2 E 0
Enter date in the format ____/__/__
Please let me know why it is taking different userid's and how to resolve this issue ?
Early response is highly appreciated.
Thanks
Supriya

Hi,
Goto tableUSR01.
Take field value 'DATFM' for every user.
Depends on this use FM, 'CONVERSION_EXIT_PDATE_OUTPUT' to convert date.
or do manual processing using concatenate statement to get user specific date format.
If you struck up anywhere revert back,
Thanks,
Krishna.

The date format for the column join_dt is dd-mon-yyyy.
But I want to modify the date format for this column as 'MM/DD/YYYY'.
For that I tried
ALTER snapshot EMPLOYEE_CRIS_MVIEW modify(TO_CHAR(join_dt,'MM/DD/YYYY'));
But I got the error
ERROR at line 1:

Could you please help me to change the change the date format of the column of the snapshot
with out dropping the snapshot.
Please help me.
Thanks in advance.

What people are saying is that date columns (of DATE datatype) are stored internally using a fixed internal notation, which is essentially a series of bytes that describe the date.
e.g.

14 rows selected.Here, you can see from the dumped dates that they are all stored as 7 bytes of data, which sort of resemble the date you see on the screen in some way, but not quite. It's an internal format that Oracle understands and uses, and it's important it's stored in this way so that date arithmetic and date range comparisons can be performed easily (and quickly) in queries.
If we were to alter our sessions date format (the display format for our session only) and query the data again in the same way...
SQL> alter session set nls_date_format='YYYY-MM-DD';
Session altered.

14 rows selected.... whilst the hiredate is now showing on the screen in the format we've chosen, the actual internal storage of those dates remains completely unchanged. i.e. we don't have to change the format of the internal storage of dates to make them display differently.
Likewise you can format dates manually as part of your query using to_char function...
SQL> select empno, ename, to_char(hiredate,'DD Month YYYY') as hiredate, dump(hiredate) as dump_hiredate from emp;

SQL>Again, the internal date format remains the same.
It is important that, when you store date information you store it as DATE datatype and let oracle use it's internal format, so that it can accurately do the date arithmetic, date range searches and date ordering etc., that everyone likes to do in queries. If you try and store it as VARCHAR2 then not only can information be lost (i.e. is '01/02/2010' representing 1st February 2010 or is it 2nd January 2010?) but you prevent date arithmetic, range searches and ordering in your queries from working correctly (i.e. '03/01/2009' would work out to be a greater date than '01/02/2010'). To prove it...

BDC - Session Method - No batch input data for screen SAPMZ_TPSCREEN02 100

Hi ABAP Experts,
I have written a Dialog Program For a Screen Which contains 5 fields namely,
carrid,
connid,
fldate,
price,
planetype.
I have written the PAI logic to insert whatever entries entered in the fields, into Database Table SFLIGHT.
I created a Transaction and Tested whether the entries are succesfully entetered into the Database Table and it works just fine.
Now i planned to write a BDC program for the above Transaction so that i can upload data to the Database table from a flat file.
I went to SHDB transaction and created a new recording and transferred the program to generate a source code.
include bdcrecx1.
start-of-selection.
loop at itab.
perform open_group.
perform bdc_dynpro      using 'SAPMZ_TPSCREEN02' '1000'.
perform bdc_field       using 'BDC_OKCODE'
                              '=CREA'.
perform bdc_field       using 'BDC_CURSOR'
                              'SFLIGHT-PLANETYPE'.
perform bdc_field       using 'SFLIGHT-CARRID'
                              'AA'.
perform bdc_field       using 'SFLIGHT-CONNID'
                              '0017'.
perform bdc_field       using 'SFLIGHT-FLDATE'
                              '11/01/2007'.
perform bdc_field       using 'SFLIGHT-PRICE'
                              '767'.
perform bdc_field       using 'SFLIGHT-PLANETYPE'
                              'A310-200F'.
perform bdc_transaction using 'Z_TPSCREEN02'.
perform close_group.
Then i defined an internal table which contains the same fields as those in my Screen and Transaction.
I populated the internal table from a flat file using GUI_UPLOAD function module.
I want to clarify - I got this flat file by using the GUI_DOWNLOAD module and later i uploaded the same file using GUI_UPLOAD.
I tested whether the internal table is populated or not using LOOP AT ITAB. WRITE Statements.
Its working just fine.
Finally my code look like this.
report ZVMREC

perform close_group.
endloop.
I checked for errors, activated and executed.
I gave session name and executed, it generated same number of sessions as number of records.
I went to SM35 and Processed one of the sessions in foreground.
It brought my screen up with all fields fill up by the fields of first record in the internal table and with
OK Code popping up.
I check the OK Code.
Now the problem has come up, its says
*No batch input data for screen SAPMZ_TPSCREEN02 1000 *
My session was now incorrectly processed,
Please help me to fix this problem.
I searched so many forums and google it a lot.
But i didn't find any clue.
Kindly take your time and have a look at this problem and let me know how can i fix it.
Thank you very much all.

Date format in flat file of bdc

Dates Format in Promts using Session Variables

Hi Experts,
I have an issue in controlling date format in prompts using session variable which I am using to set default value.
By default date format is timestamp E.g '2010-12-19 12:00:00 AM'.
As per requriement(s) I customized the date format in Reports as 19-Dec-2010 and I saved it as "System Wide Default for <Date Column Name> "
So, I got desired format in Reports and Date Prompts.
Now, I need to set a default value in Date Prompt. So, in RPD I created a Session Variable which returned me date in
DD-MON-YYYY format. Using follwing SQL :
SELECT REPLACE(CONVERT(VARCHAR(11), Getdate (), 106), ' ', '-') AS [DD-Mon-YYYY]
But in reports takes this value as string and not Datetime. So i got an error message.
A datetime value was expected (received "19-Dec-2010").
If i do not use above SQL to CONVERT date then default date in prompt get displayed as timestamp format and give me desired results but Formatting looks very odd in prompt
Is this a way so I can persist the [DD-Mon-YYYY] Formatting for default value which comes using variable and still run the report.
Above problem also exist vice versa that is if i SET that session variable and pass the datetime value to server. But there i guess I can use ToDate or some Casting in RPD column expression to handle that. Tell me if i am right ?
Thanks
Saurabh

That almost works. I had to adjust the syntax to the following...and then there are other issues doing this.
select cust_no, name,'@{session.currentUser}' from customersMy write-back SQL is this:
UPDATE customers SET NAME='@{c1}',LAST_EDITED_BY='@{c2}' WHERE CUST_NO=@{c0}But I don't want to display the cust_no column to the user. So I hide it in the UI. But if I do that I get the below error during write-back. Apparently sometimes when you hide a column on a direct query (numeric maybe?) the value doesn't transfer over to the write-back. If that's the case, this won't work for me. Hmm...

Date Format Issue in Session

z =14-feb-2011
err_mesg_out =0I want to get the 'z' variable value in 'MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS' format in my session. Why I think so is because the same format/value need to be passed to
a procedure "my_proc" - which is currently commented out. Even if I hardcode the 'z' param value while calling the "my_proc" it still throwing exception
my_proc(10001,20002,'02/14/2011 11:46:24',err_mesg_out);
ORA-01843: not a valid monthWhen this procedure is getting executed from the application code with the same value/format it's working fine and I think something need to be done in my SQLPLUS session. Can anyone suggest how I can set the date format to resolve this ?

Hi,
As Blushadow said, format (such as the difference between '16-Feb-11' and '02/16/2011 05:08:13') is something that applies only to strings, not DATEs. All DATEs have the same (purely internal) format, which has nothing to do with how they appear when you display them.
By the way, assuming you want the variables x and y, the following code does exactly the same as what you posted:
DECLARE
     err_mesg_out     NUMBER (1)     := 0;
     x          DATE;
     y          VARCHAR2 (50)      := Null;
     z          DATE;
BEGIN
     select      scheduled_date
     into      x
     from      CONTRACT_SCHEDULED_FULFILLMENT
     where      CONTRACT_ID          = 94875672
     and      fulfillment_type_id     = 9;
     dbms_output.put_line ('x =' || x);
     y := TO_CHAR (x, 'MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS');
     dbms_output.put_line ('y =' || y);
     z := x;
     dbms_output.put_line ('z =' || z);
--     my_proc (10001, 20002, z, err_mesg_out);
END;
/ There's no need to query the table more than once, and it's just plain silly to convert a DATE (such as scheduled_date) into a string (such as y), just so you can convert it back to a DATE (such as z) again.
If all you want to do is call my_proc, then the following is all you need:
DECLARE
     err_mesg_out     NUMBER (1)     := 0;
     z          DATE;
BEGIN
     select      scheduled_date
     into      z
     from      CONTRACT_SCHEDULED_FULFILLMENT
     where      CONTRACT_ID          = 94875672
     and      fulfillment_type_id     = 9;
     dbms_output.put_line ('z =' || z);
--     my_proc (10001, 20002, z, err_mesg_out);
END;

BDC Session Saves Data Only in Foreground

I have created a bdc program to create an SM35 session of CA02. The wierd thing is that the session will run in background with no errors, but the data is not updated. If I run the session in foreground the data is updated. Have I overlooked something simple?

To see what is going on, I commented out the save at the end to force it to error out. If I run the session in foreground the data is changed. If I run it in display errors only mode, the data is not changed. So it seems not to have anything to do with the save at the end. Perhaps it is now appropriate to post some of the code.
After the data file is uploaded into the itab and the bdc group has been created, for each routing group I do the following:
PERFORM dynpro USING:
* ***   Initial Screen   ***
      'X'   'SAPLCPDI'       '1010',
      ' '   'RC271-PLNNR'    gk_rec-groupnum,
      ' '   'BDC_OKCODE'     '/00',
* *** Header Overview ***
      'X'   'SAPLCPDI'       '1200',
      ' '   'BDC_OKCODE'     'MTUE'.     "open material allocation screen
Then for each material allocation the data file says to delete:
PERFORM dynpro USING:
* *** Material Allocation ***
      'X'   'SAPLCZDI'         '1010',
      ' '   'RC27X-ENTRY_ACT' gv_entry,   "gv_entry holds row number to delete
      ' '   'BDC_OKCODE'       'ENT1',       "position button
      'X'   'SAPLCZDI'         '1010',
      ' '   'BDC_CURSOR'       'MAPL-MATNR(01)', "place cursor on the line to delete
      ' '   'BDC_OKCODE'       'LOE',                      "delete line
      'X'   'SAPLSPO1'         '0100',
      ' '   'BDC_OKCODE'       'YES'.                      "confirm dialog
then at the end of the session:
PERFORM dynpro USING:
        'X'   'SAPLCZDI'       '1010',
        ' '   'BDC_OKCODE'     'BACK', "leave material allocation screen
        'X'   'SAPLCPDI'       '1200',
        ' '   'BDC_OKCODE'     'BU'. "save
Then, I insert into the bdc session using tcode ca02. All this given the following subroutine:
FORM dynpro USING p_dynbegin TYPE any p_name TYPE any p_value TYPE any.
CLEAR gk_bdc_tab.
IF p_dynbegin = 'X'.
    MOVE: p_name TO gk_bdc_tab-program,
           p_value TO gk_bdc_tab-dynpro,
           'X'   TO gk_bdc_tab-dynbegin.
ELSE.
    MOVE: p_name TO gk_bdc_tab-fnam,
           p_value TO gk_bdc_tab-fval.
ENDIF.
APPEND gk_bdc_tab TO gt_bdc_tab.
ENDFORM.
It seems that the cursor isn't specifying the line to delete when run in background.

How to write date format in bdc

how to write date format in bdc report

Hi,
First you have a data decleration i.e data l_format(10) type c.
now if a variable say l_date which is of sy-datum type, you will have to <b>write l_date to l_format</b>, this will transfer the date in which you(user) have set the date format in user settings. Never hard code the format such as dd.mm.yyyy. or mm/dd/yyyy because the may have different formats, and the BDC will fails. After you have used write to to new l_format, pass this new value to BDC recording.
Reward if useful.

How to do Regional Setting Configuration in RDP session ( Eg Date Format, Currency, Decimal Seperator etc)

Hi All,
I am new to Windows Server 2008 R2 administration.
I would like to know is there a way to do Regional Setting Configuration in RDP session. i.e Date Format, Currency, Decimal Separator etc are based on users local machine.
Eg If a user from UK logs in he should see date format as DD/MM/YY and if user from US logs in he should date format as MM/DD/YY.
We are currently using citrix and we are managing this using logon script that runs based on citrix published application name.
Is there any way we can achieve the same in RDP ?
Thanks in Advance.
Thanks & Regards,

Date Format IN BDC

Hi,
In One Interview I was asked that How can You Handle Data Format when Writing BDC ?

Satya,
The date format depends on User settings. Its different for different login ID's.
It can be YYYY.MM.DD or MM.DD.YYYY or anything.
To handle the date format, you need to query on table USR01 and fetch DATFM field that stores date format.
Refer below piece of code
*/...Fetch the date format settings for the user
      SELECT SINGLE datfm
               INTO gv_date_format
               FROM usr01
              WHERE bname = sy-uname.
CASE gv_date_format.
    WHEN 1.     "DD.MM.YYYY
      CONCATENATE fv_impdate+6(2) '.'
                  fv_impdate+4(2) '.'
                  fv_impdate+0(4) INTO fv_expdate.
    WHEN 2.     "MM/DD/YYYY
      CONCATENATE fv_impdate+4(2) '/'
                  fv_impdate+6(2) '/'
                  fv_impdate+0(4) INTO fv_expdate.
    WHEN 3.     "MM-DD-YYYY
      CONCATENATE fv_impdate+4(2) '-'
                  fv_impdate+6(2) '-'
                  fv_impdate+0(4) INTO fv_expdate.
    WHEN 4.     "YYYY.MM.DD
      CONCATENATE fv_impdate+0(4) '.'
                  fv_impdate+4(2) '.'
                  fv_impdate+6(2) INTO fv_expdate.
    WHEN 5.     "YYYY/MM/DD
      CONCATENATE fv_impdate+0(4) '/'
                  fv_impdate+4(2) '/'
                  fv_impdate+6(2) INTO fv_expdate.
    WHEN 6.     "YYYY-MM-DD
      CONCATENATE fv_impdate+0(4) '-'
                  fv_impdate+4(2) '-'
                  fv_impdate+6(2) INTO fv_expdate.
ENDCASE.
This would convert the date into the format set for user.
Hope this is helpful.

Date format with alter session -- very urgent !!!!

The default format of date is DD-MON-YY.
I like to change as DD/MM/YYYY. So I tried to do so by going
through my login in SQLPlus and wrote
ALTER SESSION
SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT = 'DD/MM/YYYY'.
The format got changed and there after every query displayed
date in dd/mm/yyyy format. But once I exit sqlplus and reenter
in sqlplus, the format goes away and the default date format i.e
dd-mon-yy comes in existence.
I want to know, how can i make my date format permanent and too
for all users.
null

hello Khan,
You can set this format in 2 ways, one is
local setting and the other one is on server setting.
Edit your c:\windows\oracle.ini (local setting)
or your init.ora (oracle server setting)
and add this script
SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT = 'DD/MM/YYYY'
note: if there's no nls_date_format in oracle.ini, the server
nls_date_format in init.ora will be the current setting
on your PC
Hope this will help
