BIP eBusiness Suite Dates - How to include the last day of the month?

How can I get my report to include the last day of the month 'without' forcing my users to enter the non-intuitive first of the next month as a parm?
I have a report that will generally be run for a month but can be run for any pair of dates representing the first and last date to be included in the report.
When we pass the dates from Oracle Apps to the report it is truncating the date to midnight. This results in the last date entered 'NOT' being included in the report as the second date is marked as "midnight". When I attempt to simply add "=1" to the end date it fails due to formatting issues in apps (only). I have gotten this to work on our Enterprise edition server that we use for testing (only) but it fails in our apps environment.
In APPs we input the date in the format "01-AUG-2007", and this is how it shows in the parm line before the report is submitted as well as in the "View Details" after the report is executed: http://home.swbell.net/grog1//work/req_details_5607586.jpg
However it is odd in that we in the "View Log" entry it shows the date formatted as "2007/08/01 00:00:00": http://home.swbell.net/grog1/work/view_log_5607586.jpg
Even odder is that under diagnostics, "View XML" the date is formatted third way as: "2007/08/01 00:00:00.0" (note it now includes tenths of a second): http://home.swbell.net/grog1/work/view_xml_5607586.jpg
This of course makes it difficult to perform conversions and calculations on the date in the SQL.
Is APPs doing some sort of 'timestamp' conversion?
How can I get my report to include the last day of the month 'without' forcing my users to enter the non-intuitive first of the next month as a parm?
Any feedback is appreciated,
Scott

No. The problem/error occurs long before the data is formatted into xml for presentation to the format template.
The error occurs in the SQL in the 'data' template when I attempt to add a day to the date. It either does not like the implicit conversion with the "+1" and then the use of the "between" with another date or if I attempt to manually convert it has problems with the format mask.

Use java.util.Calendar

How to get the last day of the payroll period

Hi all,
I need to get the last day of the payroll period e.g. last day of Jan 2007 is 31 Jan 2007. Can anyone suggest as to how to get it?
Thanks,
Madhu

T549S contains the payroll periods with pay date. T549Q contains the begin and end dates of the payroll period.
You can select from the appropriate table (or from both depending on your given data) to get the end date of the period.
Hope that helps.

How to get the last day of a month?

HI,
I want to know how to get the last day of a month.
In my JClient form, I tried to get it by using oracle.sql.Date method, that is:
lastday=oracle.sql.Date anydate.lastDayOfMonth();
But it does not work. The result is lastday=anydate.
Why?
Stephen

You can use the Calender class...
Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
and then something like...
c.add(c.MONTH, 1);
int dayOfMonth = c.get(Calender.MONTH);
c.add(c.DAY_OF_MONTH, - (dayOfMonth-1) );
other usefull functions are:
System.out.println(" YEAR : " + c.get(Calendar.YEAR));
System.out.println(" MONTH : " + c.get(Calendar.MONTH));
System.out.println(" DAY_OF_MONTH : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH));
System.out.println(" DAY_OF_WEEK : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK));
System.out.println(" DAY_OF_YEAR : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR));
System.out.println(" WEEK_OF_YEAR : " + c.get(Calendar.WEEK_OF_YEAR));
System.out.println(" WEEK_OF_MONTH : " + c.get(Calendar.WEEK_OF_MONTH));
System.out.println(" DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH));
System.out.println(" HOUR : " + c.get(Calendar.HOUR));
System.out.println(" AM_PM : " + c.get(Calendar.AM_PM));
System.out.println(" HOUR_OF_DAY (24-hour): " + c.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY));
System.out.println(" MINUTE : " + c.get(Calendar.MINUTE));
System.out.println(" SECOND : " + c.get(Calendar.SECOND));
System.out.println();*/

How to get the last day of the previous month

Hello Team,
If my input date is today , then i need to find out the last day of the previous month for the same.
Can someone help me to find out .. how can this be done.
Regards,
Ravi

Hi,
Try the below code.
     // get a calendar object
    GregorianCalendar calendar = new GregorianCalendar();
    // convert the year and month to integers
    int yearInt = Integer.parseInt(year);
    int monthInt = Integer.parseInt(month);
     int dayInt = Integer.parseInt(day);
    // adjust the month for a zero based index
    monthInt = monthInt - 1;
    // set the date of the calendar to the date provided
    calendar.set(yearInt, monthInt, dayInt);
    int day = calendar.getActualMaximum(GregorianCalendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
    return Integer.toString(day);

How can I find the last day of the current month

Is it possible to get the last day of the month in reports. Suppose I enter JUL in one of the text field. Now in reports I want to show that JUL contains 31 days. How can I retrieve the last day of the month.
Any ideas?

The first (and fast) solution I think is this:
There is a function MONTH(CURRENT_DATE) that returns the number of the month of the current date.
Now, you could use CASE WHEN expressions to determine the number of days returned since you now how many days does every month have.
For instance, you could do:
CASE
WHEN MONTH(CURRENT_DATE)=1 THEN 31
WHEN MONTH(CURRENT_DATE)=2 THEN 28
WHEN MONTH(CURRENT_DATE)=3 THEN 31
WHEN MONTH(CURRENT_DATE)=4 THEN 30
END
PD. This is faster that use OR expressions like 1 or 3 or 5 because you dont have to try every option.
Hope it helps...but maybe there is another way more automatic.

How to get the last day of the next month?

Hi all.
I need to get the last day of the next month. E.g. if the date is 20.03.2008 I need to get 30.04.2008.
Is there any FM for it?
TIA, Nikolai.

hi Nikolai,
pls. have a look athe following piece of code:
PARAMETERS : p_date TYPE sy-datum.
DATA : gv_res TYPE sy-datum.
CALL FUNCTION 'CALCULATE_DATE'
EXPORTING
*   DAYS              = '0'
   months            = '2'
   start_date        = p_date
IMPORTING
   result_date       = gv_res.
==> Now you have (gv_res) 2 months later as today
gv_res+6(2) = '01'. ==> gv_res is first day of next-next month
gv_res = gv_res - 1. ==> gv_res is last day of next month
hope this helps

How do I set a reminder for the last day of every month

Have I missed something? But how do you set a reminder for the last day of every month to recurr indefinatley in iOS6? Sorry if this is really simple but I just can't seem to work it out. Any help gratefully received.

Hey Mattye88 not sure if you have seen but actully you can do this, but for some reason you have to use Siri. If you bring up Siri and say "set a reminder ever 4 weeks from next wednesday to check the gas meter" it will set one and it will work just fine, I have reminders to water a Bonsai every three days and it works fine it just shows as custom repeat on the user interface. Alas it seems you can not use Siri to set one for the end of the month though which is why I am in this threed. Still hope it helps you to know how to sort this problem atleast.

How do I set a recurring event for the last day of the month on iphone 4s calendar?

I want to set a recurring event for the last day of every month - regardless of the date/number of days in the month. I'd prefer not to have to use an app to do this.

Hi,
You can do this using the custom repeat in iCal. You'll need two events to cover the second and fourth Mondays.
Create the event on the second Monday of the month. In Repeat select Custom... > Frequency: Monthly > On the: second Monday.
Do the same for the Fourth Monday.
Best wishes

select single * from t247 into xt247
        where spras = sy-langu
          and mnr = e_date+4(2).
monthnumber = xt247-mnr.

determine the previous month.
bforwardmonth = monthnumber - 1.
From here I need to determine the last day of the previous month How can I do?
Thanks for your help.

Hi all,
here's the shortest solution:
REPORT z123.
PARAMETERS p_datum LIKE sy-datum DEFAULT sy-datum.
DATA ultimo LIKE sy-datum.
<b>ultimo = p_datum - p_datum+6(2).</b>
WRITE: / p_datum, 20 ultimo COLOR 2.
it's not my solution :
it's from <a href="http://www.abapforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1434&highlight=ultimo">Andrew_</a>

Formula to calculate the last day of the subsequent month

Hi - I am trying to create a formula in CR9 that will take a date field and translate it to the last day of the subsequent month. For example, I have a date of today, 2/3/2009. I need it to print on the report 3/31/2009. I have made some progress to get me the 1st day of the subsequent month, but I need it to be the last day of the subsequent month.
The formula I am have currently is:
DateSerial(Year({Name.JOIN_DATE}), Month({Name.JOIN_DATE}) + 1, 0)+1
this will give me 3/1/2009, but I need 3/31/2009.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi Joe,
You can use the following logic which also takes into account the extra day in a leap year. You will need 5 formulas for this:
First create a formula that calculates current month, call it @Current Month MM
Month(Name.JOIN_DATE)+1
Next create another formula called @Current Month Start Date which will give you the beginning of the month.
totext(Date (year(currentdate),tonumber({@Current Month MM}) ,1 ))
Next create another formula called @Current Year yyyy
Year(Name.JOIN_DATE)
Next, create a formula called @DaysofMonth with the following logic:
if tonumber({@Current Year yyyy}) mod 4 = 0 then
choose(month(date({@Current Month Start Date})),31,29,31,30,31,30,31,31,30,31,30,31) else
choose(month(date({@Current Month Start Date})),31,28,31,30,31,30,31,31,30,31,30,31)
Lastly create a formula called @Ending Date of Month
totext(Date (year(currentdate),tonumber({@Current Month MM}) ,{@DaysOfMonth} ))
I hope this information proves useful.

Zack H.

Define event to repeat on the last day of each month?

(I've searched the forum and can't find this question addressed)
I want to create a repeating event for the last day of each month. Is this possible?

Unfortunately Apple does not have an option available that allows you to add an event repeating on the last day of the month. An "OK" way around this would be to repeat on the 1st of every month and send a reminder a day earlier. I know this is less then perfect but the only option currently available. If you happen to find a 3rd party program that allows such integration please don't hesitate to mention it here as I have been looking for this sort of option for quite some time now!

Function to get the last day of the current month

Hi friends
Now I need to know a function to get the last day of a month. I had between my notes that function but I do not find it and I think you can give the answer faster.

I know emoticons are a bit naff but in the absence of a UBB markup to indicate humourous intent they do serve to indicate a joke. This is useful in a purely verbal domain like these forums, especially given that many participants don't have English as their first lanaguage and so often miss the wordplay.
