Conversion of Date field to 0FISCPER

Hi,
   I have a field ZDATE from old legacy system.
   The format of this field is like 05 - MAJ ; 06 - JUNI; 07 - JULI and so on.
   I need to map this field to 0FISCPER in the BW system
   Please advice a code for a conversion routine as such.

Hi john,
Greetings.
For converting it to 0FISCPER, you will need the information of Year as well.
We will have to perform the operation in 2 steps.
1). To convert the legacy date into YYYYMMDD Format.
2). Once we achieve the first part, we can use the Function module 'DATE_TO_PERIOD_CONVERT' by passing the date and it will return the period and year. and you can pass the period to the result.
Sample code is as below. Let me know if it helps.
CALL FUNCTION 'DATE_TO_PERIOD_CONVERT'
        EXPORTING
          i_date         = wa_result-calday
          i_monmit       = 00
          i_periv        = 'Z2'
        IMPORTING
          e_buper        = l_period
          e_gjahr        = l_year
        EXCEPTIONS
          t009b_notfound = 4
          INPUT_FALSE = 4.
     wa_calday-v_period = l_period.
Thanks

Date field - no date entered - conversion error

Hi,
i've a input text field with a datepattern attached in my jsp, whose requrired attribute is set to false. If i submit the page and no date is entered, JSF returns "Conversion error occured" for the date field.
For testing purposes i made a simple JSP which contains only this date field and a reload button, which only submits the form. When the button is clicked the conversion error is displayed as described.
What am i doing wrong here?
thx

Date field conversion

hi gurus! can someone give me a tip on a date field conversion.
I have a field that comes YYYYMMDD but i want to convert to DD.MM.YYYY
Can someone help me on this
Thk, Regards

REPORT Z_82235_TEST4                           .
data: date1(8) type c,
       date2(10) type c.
       date1 = 'YYYYMMDD'.
CONCATENATE date1+6(2) date1+4(2) date1(4) INTO date2 separated by '.'.
you pass your date to date1 in place of 'yyyymmdd' and you will gate ur desired output on date2.

Date field conversion in Import Manager

Hi,
I am getting the source Date field as 'Text' type and want to convert it to Date type.
Is it possible in import Manager?
What are the best way to manage the issue.
Appreciate your reply
regards,
reo

Hi Reo,
The data types of source data values are automatically
converted within the Source Values grid based on the data type of the
destination field to which the source field is mapped, even when stored
in the source data as text values.
Original source values appear with their original data type in the Value
column, and the converted values appear in the Converted Value
column with the data type of the mapped destination field and the
proper grid cell type for editing (e.g. text, numeric, measurement,
currency, date, time, Boolean). If necessary, individual values can then
be manually edited to override errors or omissions in the source data.

How to display date field in ALV in format 'YYYY-MM-DD'?

Hi experts,
I am not getting displayed the date field in ALV in the format 'YYYY-MM-DD' if it is different than my user setting's format (DD.MM.YYYY).
Tried with the edit mask
LVC_S_FCAT-EDIT_MASK = '____-__-__' but it does not work.
I could not find the conversion routine for this. Is it possible to write customer conversion routine?
I have to use DATE field, otherwise if I display this format in CHAR10 field , sorting in ALV does not work for this field.
PLEASE ANY HELP!

Date field difference calculation

Hi all,
I am new to Adobe and Java scripting so apologies if this has already been answered elsewhere - I have not been able to find it if it has.
I want to calculate the difference between two dates fields in hours and mins on a form.
I have two fields, both Date format (dd/mm/yyy HH:MM), a Start and End date and I want the difference between them in the Time format HH:MM.
Can anyone help me with the script for this? What I have so far is:
var strStart = this.getField("StartTime").value;
var strEnd = this.getField("EndTime").value;
if(strStart.length || strEnd.length)
var dateStart = util.scand("dd/mm/yyyy HH:MM",strStart);
var dateEnd = util.scand("dd/mm/yyyy HH:MM",strEnd);
var diff = dateEnd.getTime() - dateStart.getTime();
// One Day = (24 hours) x (60 minutes/hour) x
// (60 seconds/minute) x (1000 milliseconds/second)
var oneMin = 60 * 60 * 1000;
var mins = Math.floor(diff/oneMin);
event.value = util.printd("HH:MM",mins);
But this is not working...
Mary

The result can be formatted using:
// format result using "h:MM" format
event.value = util.printf("%,0 0.0f" + ":" + "%,002.0f", nHours, nMinutes);
One cannot use the date or time formats since the time values will be limited to the hours and minutes values for 1 day, so any time value that is over 23 hours 59 minutes is not possible.
A full script solution including document level functions for conversion of date strings to minutes and converting minutes to a time string:
// reusable document level functions;
function Time2Num(cFormat, cDate) {
// convert date value with format to number of minutes form Epoch date;
var oDate = util.scand(cFormat, cDate);
var nMins = null;
if(oDate == null) app.alert("Error converting " + cString + " using " + cForamt);
else nMins = oDate.getTime() / (1000 * 60);
return Math.floor(nMins);
} // end Time2Num format
function Num2Time(cFormat, nMins) {
// convert number of muniutes to h:MM or HH:MM format;
// return formatted string for valid formats;
// return null for invalid formats;
var cElapsed = null;
// test for nMins being a number;
if(isNaN(nMins)) {
app.alert("Minutes must be number",0, 0);
} else {
var nHours = Math.floor(nMins / 60);
var nMinutes = Math.floor(nMins % 60);
switch(cFormat) {
case "h:MM":
cElapsed = util.printf("%,0 0.0f" + ":" + "%,002.0f", nHours, nMinutes);
break;
case "HH:MM":
cElapsed = util.printf("%,002.0f" + ":" + "%,002.0f", nHours, nMinutes);
break;
default:
app.alert("Invalid format " + cFormat + "\nMust be \"HH:MM\" or \"h:MM", 0, 0);
break;
return cElapsed;
} // end Num2Time function
// end document level funcitons;
// custom calculation script;
event.value = ''; // clear result;
var strStart = this.getField("StartTime").value;
var strEnd = this.getField("EndTime").value;
if(strStart.length || strEnd.length) {
var nDateStart = Time2Num("dd/mm/yyyy HH:MM",strStart);
var nDateEnd = Time2Num("dd/mm/yyyy HH:MM",strEnd);
var nMins = nDateEnd - nDateStart;
// format result using "h:MM" format
event.value = Num2Time("h:MM", nMins);
// end custom calculation script;

Importing Date fields from Oracle always defaults to DT_DBDATETIME, and won't accept chages

Hi
I am trying to import date fields in an Oracle database in to SQL Server 2012, using SSIS. The package is using DT_DBTIMESTAMP type in the Data Flow, but this has the same range as SQL Server datetime, and it bombs out all the time.
I have tried to change the type used to DT_DBDATE, but no matter what I do the data type on the input columns is readonly and will not change.
Any help would be much appreciated
Andy
CRM 4, SQL Server and .Net developer using C#

Hi Andy,
From the Mapping of Integration Services Data Types to Database Data Types section of the document, we can get the detailed information about mapping the Oracle data types to Integration Services data types. To change the data type from DT_DBTIMESTAMP to
DT_DBDATE, we can use the following two methods:
Method 1:
Right click on the Source component and click “Show Advanced Editor”.
Switch to the “Input and Output Properties” tab, expand the XX Source Output node, and expand the Output Columns node.
Click the target column, and change the DataType property to DT_DBDATE.
Method 2:
Add a Data Conversion component to the Data Flow Task
Double click the Data Conversion component to open the Data Conversion Transformation Editor
Select the target input column, and change the Data Type to database date [DT_DBDATE].
If I have anything misunderstood, please feel free to let me know.

Dense_Rank() over order by date fields not working properly

Hi,
i have a pl/sql statement which looks like this:
WITH OrderedByDateTable     AS
     SELECT     gsp.*, DENSE_RANK () OVER (ORDER BY A_varChar_col1,
decode(upper('COMPLIANCETICKSDATE'),'TASKNBR',TASK_NBR,
'DESCRIPTION', DESCRIPTION,
'PARTNBR', PART_NBR,
'PARTSERIALNBR', PART_SERIAL_NBR,
'SORTDATE', TO_DATE(MIN_EST_DUE_DATE),
'COMPLIANCETICKSDATE', COMPLIANCE_DATE,
TASK_NBR
)DESC NULLS LAST,task_nbr,description,enrtask_id)     AS r_num
     FROM     GT_STATUS_PAGING gsp
SELECT     *
FROM     OrderedByDateTable
The result that i am expecting is that the dense_rank should order the compliance_date column in desc order and finally gives ranks to the rows.
But i am getting the resultset in some order all the time, but it is neither ASC or DESC.
But if for debugging purposes, lets say if i replace the COMPLIANCE_DATE column with DESCRIPTION column again it works perfectly fine giving me the descriptions in DESC order along with the ranks. But for both the date fields above it doesnt work.
Can anyone please help me on how to solve this?

Because the first parameters of your decode are strings, the COMPLIANCE_DATE column is also converted into a string. This string is then sorted alphanumerically. The default format mask is often DD-MON-RR. Therefore your date column would be sorted by day, then by the name of the month and so on.
Fast solution would be to do an explicit conversion from date into strings that match the ordering.
WITH OrderedByDateTable     AS
        (     SELECT     gsp.*, DENSE_RANK () OVER (ORDER BY A_varChar_col1,
                     decode(upper('COMPLIANCETICKSDATE'),

                               'SORTDATE', TO_DATE(MIN_EST_DUE_DATE),
                               'COMPLIANCETICKSDATE', to_char(COMPLIANCE_DATE,'YYYYMMDD HH24:MI:SS'), /* this is the important bit */
                               TASK_NBR
                               ) DESC NULLS LAST,task_nbr,description,enrtask_id)     AS r_num
                    FROM     GT_STATUS_PAGING gsp
SELECT     *
FROM     OrderedByDateTable     You should be careful, because the same problem also happens with your SORTDATE column MIN_EST_DUE_DATE.

Date field in a view need to be formatted

I have a view like this
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW order_view AS
SELECT company_id company_id,
branch_id branch_id,
Branch_API.Get_Description(company_id, branch_id) branch_description,
order_id order_id,
order_date order_date,

voucher_id voucher_id,
substrb(Payment_Type_API.Decode(payment_type),1,200) payment_type,
payment_type payment_type_db,
rowstate state
FROM order_tab
WITH read only;
This view return the order date like this '10/23/2005 4:30:30 PM'. But I want to get it like this 2005-10-23-16.30.30. Aslo is shoud be a date to be return. So I can't use to_char(order_date, 'YYYY-MM-DD-HH24.MI.SS') order date to do this.
Is there anyway to get this correct?
Thanks in advance..

2005/24/10 04:53:46i asked you to use TO_DATE becuase you wanted the data type to be DATE instead of varchar.
but the final output how you want to retrive has to be extracted again using the TO_CHAR in your application.
Infact if you don't require a conversion. if the field is date already, it will be date when you create the view. only when you want to select it use TO_CHAR and extract in the desired format.
eg. also show how to see the date in diff,. format in your sql*plus session.

Using DECODE() to insert to DATE field

I'm trying to use the DECODE function to test for NULL before inserting to a DATE field. However, it seems to only insert the DATE, with a "default" time of 12:00 - it isn't properly inserting the time.
Basically I need to test if Date1 is NULL. If it isn't I need to concatenate the DATE from Date1 with the TIME from Date2 to get a full date/time... then insert this new value.
Generic Example:
CREATE TABLE DATETEST (TestID NUMBER(1), TestDate DATE);
DECLARE
v_Date1 DATE;
v_Date2 DATE;
BEGIN
v_Date1 := TO_DATE('01-JAN-11 05:53:12', 'DD-MON-YY HH:MI:SS');
v_Date2 := TO_DATE('08-FEB-11 02:18:31', 'DD-MON-YY HH:MI:SS');
INSERT INTO DATETEST (TestID, TestDate) VALUES ('1', DECODE(v_Date1, NULL, NULL, TO_DATE(To_Char(v_Date1, 'DD-MON-YY') || ' ' || TO_CHAR(v_Date2, 'HH:MI:SS'),'DD-MON-YY HH:MI:SS')));
INSERT INTO DATETEST (TestID, TestDate) VALUES ('2', TO_DATE(To_Char(v_Date1, 'DD-MON-YY') || ' ' || TO_CHAR(v_Date2, 'HH:MI:SS'),'DD-MON-YY HH:MI:SS'));
END;
SELECT TestID, TO_CHAR(TestDate, 'DD-MON-YY HH:MI:SS') from DATETEST;
This example performs two inserts. One with the DECODE function, and one without. The one without inserts the time properly. Can anyone tell me why the one with the DECODE function doesn't? I realize I can use a simple if/then to check if the date is null above and put the date/time in a variable, but since my real scenario is in a large chunk of other stuff, I'm trying to keep it as streamlined as possible.
Edited by: BoredBillJ on Jul 14, 2011 6:39 AM

The problem you are having is due to the nature of how DECODE and CASE determine what datatype to return, and you nls_date_format settings. Both use the data type of the first returnable argument to determine all of them. So, in your decode statement, the first returnable value is NULL which, in the absence of a cast (either implicit or explicit), is a varchar2 column. So, if the date is not null, the implicit conversion to a varchar to match the retunr type, then back to date to insert into the table is losing the time. you need something more like:
   INSERT INTO test_date (Test_ID, TestDate)
   VALUES ('1', DECODE(v_Date1, NULL, TO_DATE(NULL),
                                      TO_DATE(To_Char(v_Date1, 'DD-MON-YY') || ' ' ||
                                      TO_CHAR(v_Date2, 'HH:MI:SS'),'DD-MON-YY HH:MI:SS')));Even if you use Solomon's method of generating the date, if you need the decode/case, then you will have to either use the TO_DATE(NULL) or use case instead of decode and reverse the test so the first returnable is a date like:
SQL> DECLARE
2     v_Date1 DATE;
3     v_Date2 DATE;
4 BEGIN
5     v_Date1 := TO_DATE('01-JAN-11 05:53:12', 'DD-MON-YY HH:MI:SS');
6     v_Date2 := TO_DATE('08-FEB-11 02:18:31', 'DD-MON-YY HH:MI:SS');
7     INSERT INTO test_date (Test_ID, TestDate)
8     VALUES ('1', CASE WHEN v_date1 IS NOT NULL
9                       THEN TO_DATE(To_Char(v_Date1, 'DD-MON-YY') || ' ' ||
10                                    TO_CHAR(v_Date2, 'HH:MI:SS'),'DD-MON-YY HH:MI:SS')
11                       ELSE NULL END);
12     INSERT INTO test_date (Test_ID, TestDate)
13     VALUES ('2', TO_DATE(To_Char(v_Date1, 'DD-MON-YY') || ' ' ||
14                  TO_CHAR(v_Date2, 'HH:MI:SS'),'DD-MON-YY HH:MI:SS'));
15 END;

Hi,
you have created 3 linetypes for table .
you have create loop for multiple records display.
in loop you have to pass table from which you are displaying inti output.
To internal table we get data from print program and create text for corresponding cells.
then it will pass those data to table.
2) create programlines for that.
in that mention table from which table is containing quantity.
that is import parameter specified .
export parameters are your output fields using for calculation.
AMOUNT = TAB3-NETWR.
Netamount = Netamount + TAB3-NETWR.
here input is tab3 table it contains quantity data.
lamount,netamount are output parameters.
like that you can display quantity.
or in global definitions currency/quantity fields tab is available you can pass there also.
for dat fields write logic for conversion of date and pass that variabl in form output.

Creating and using a calculated field in business rule from the currency conversion of another field.

Hello,
I'm creating a calculated field with a set currency for a business rule. I'm planning to use it as a deficiency criteria. I want the values to come from the currency conversion of another field. Can someone provide me the step by step procedure on how to do it?
Some documents would be great.
I've been trying to do it on my own but I've gotten lost.
Thank you.

Thank you for all your help above.
Just to confirm your advice, am I right with the following conclusions? :
1. The script (function) to fill the text field with the modification date of a different PDF file needs to be stored in a folder level .js file.
2. The document containing the text field needs to call the .js function either within the document script or within the custom script property of the text field itself.
Further to that can you just advise on the syntax for accessing the modification date of the other document.
Do I need to assign a variable to the address of the file to be used, and then use this variable in the text form filling script (as below) or can I use a direct file reference at the .modDate command.
var LastSync = "C:\sync\bin\lastsync.pdf";
var strMsg = util.printd("h:MM tt",LastSync.modDate) + " on ";
strMsg += util.printd("dddd, d mmmm, yyyy",LastSync.modDate);
this.getField("LastSyncDate").value = strMsg;
If the syntax is totally different to the above I would be very grateful for some guidance in the right direction.
I much appreciate your time to help me ... I'm almost there.
Kind Regards,
Nifty
