Changes in date format while creating/downloading the file

Hi All,
Can any one let me know how does the system determines which date format should it apply while creating/downloading the file.
Issue :
When I create/download the file generated by report RTXWCF02 using unix level acess the Date format of a field in file is DD.MM.YYYY where as in user profile i can see its in MM/DD/YYYY.
I dont understand how system determines the date format and How we can change it. Please suggest.
Regards,
Ravi Kasnale

I would suggest you to use ALV_XXL_CALL if your want to keep your data formats intact.
like this -   CALL FUNCTION 'ALV_XXL_CALL'
       EXPORTING
            i_tabname           = 'T_GRID'   " Name of your internal table
            it_fieldcat         = t_fcatk[]      "Your LAV grids catalog.
       TABLES
            it_outtab           = t_grid         "Internal table itself
       EXCEPTIONS
            fatal_error         = 1
            no_display_possible = 2
            OTHERS              = 3.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    MESSAGE e806(bk).
ENDIF.
hope it helps.

Need help at date format while creating External Tables from Flat file

Hi All,
I have a flat file generated from SQL Server 2005. In that generated flat file the date format is in the format as "YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS.Millisec" like example "2007-09-08 13:32:36.568".
My task is I have to load this flat file data into Oracle database table running on 9i, but its failing at the creation of external table itself because of this date format. The target table in Oracle the date column data type is "date" only not the "TIMESTAMP".
Can any body suggest how to resolve this?
Thanks,
Sankar

Or:
SQL> select cast(to_timestamp('2007-09-08 13:32:36.568',
2 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss.xff') as date) dt
3 from dual;

Hi,
You need to rectify the issue by applying attached corrections in SAP Note 1094336 - Error message F5 275 if requirement date is deleted.
Summary
Symptom
The "Requirement date" field (EBAN-BADAT) was set to changeable in the the field selection. If the "Requirement date" field is deleted for a purchase requisition item, the system issues error message F5275 "For the xxx fiscal year variant, no period is defined for 00.00.0000".
You can leave the process only with /n.
Other terms

Kindly help me on this.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to change date format for ‘Created’ field in the getVersions web service.
Per my knowledge, you can get the date format for ‘Created’ field as “MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm a”.
For more information, you can refer to:
Versions.GetVersions Method (Versions)

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 ?

Tried to "Open As" in PS a NEF file I modified in LR. Got the following error message: "Could not complete your request because the file format module cannot parse the file." I can "Open" the file in PS, but then the changes I made in LR (and saved in the associated meta data file with the "Control S" command) are not applied to the opened PS file. HELP!

If you are working with a file you modified in Lightroom, you should go to the Lightroom Photo menu and choose Edit in... and the version of Photoshop you want to open it in.
There a dialog will ask if you want to transfer the LR settings you made to your photo when you open in Photoshop.

Formscentral - how do I change required date format to long date (e.g. January 2, 2014) in a form field?

Formscentral - how do I change required date format to long date (e.g. January 2, 2014) in a form field? I can't seem to change it from the short date format.

Hi,
I would suggest you to change the form language to English (UK), Here are the steps:-
1. Open your form in FormsCentral
2. Clik on Options tab
3. Click on Language and Formatting and check out the selection for Form Language and make sure English (U.K.) is selected and the default date format should be day/month/year.

Change display Date format from 06.2011 to june 2011 in output of Query

Hi All,
Change display Date format from 06.2011 to june 2011 in output of Query Execution. i used time charcteristics 0calmonth in query, output display is coming 06.2011, i want to display output in june 2011 format, anyone tell me how to convert this Date format.

Hi Nandish,
as tibollo said you just need to mark 0CALMONTH with text in RSD1.
Kindly note that you don't need to do data load for this object.
It will automatically derive by system.
Just change the Info object 0CALMONTH in RSD1, Go to Master Data/text column and check mark on with text.
Then activate it.

Problem in Date Format when user chages the date format in preferences

I want to generalize my code so that user can change what ever Date format he wants, I will get the date from the page in the format yyyy-mm-dd, and if the Date Format is
set to MM/dd/yyyy in prefernces i need to use MM/dd/yyyy and if the Date Format is set to dd-Mon-yyyy in prefernces i need to use dd-MMM-yy, so my question is how to know what Date format is set in the preference so that i can have all the possible date format for inserting the date
Thanks
Babu

Babu,
The date format in OAF Pages is controlled by profile ICX: Date format mask.This profile can be set at site as well as user level for the individual users to set the Date format.
But I would advice not to go for setting different profile values at user level, because i remember some old threads, where seeded Oracle pages fail, as code their is not generalised to handle date formats.
If your are planning to have this in ur custom page, go ahead, but do check the entire flow is working fine for different values of this profile at user level.

Can we avoid the message while opening downloaded excel file.

Hi,
I have an interesting issue.
In my scenario I am downloading characteristics value from COID.
Through background job we are getting that report in our Out look mail box. Report format is XLS.
While opening the attached XLS file we are getting one message.
The message is as follows
The file is not in a recognizable format
     If you know the file is from another program which is incompatible with Microsoft excel click cancel, then open this file in its original application. If you want to open the file later in Microsoft excel. Save it in a format that is compatible, such as text format.
     If you suspect the file is damaged, click help for more information about solving the problem.
     If you still want to see what text is contained in the file, click OK. Then click finish in the text import wizard
if we ok it the file is opening properly
So My question is Can we avoid this message ?
