Convert date format from 'dd/mon/yy' to 'mon/yy'

I know there's probably a load of questions already on this but I can't locate a simple straightforward explanation with examples on how to change the date 'DD/MON/YY' format to a month/year format 'MON/YY'.
Can anyone assist with a useful response, Thanks

Thanks both of you for the prompt responses.
I used the to_char(sysdate,'mmyy') from dual response, but also found the other useful.
Just another quick question, this field was in date format, why did I need to change it to CHAR?DATE datatype have NO format & are stored as BINARY values.
The only datatype that can be presented to screen, CRT, or data file are ASCII CHARACTERS!
Your Mileage May Vary below

Hi,
if I understood you correctly you want to transform from ddMMyyyy (your format in the external file) to yyyyMMdd (format of ABAP datatype DATS):
Then all you need to do is to use the standard function TransformDate (as already described above).
Enter in the field "Format of source Date": ddMMyyyy
Enter in the field "Target Format": yyyyMMdd
That's it.

Helmut

Hi Varalakshmi,
Plese try to use UDF for date conversion and include logic which would check the Space value from the source structure.
so if there is space return as such
else.
perform the conversion logic.

Need help in converting date format

Hi,
Need help in converting date format from 'DD-MON-YYYY' to 'YYYY-MM-DD' in an .rtf template as I believe xml publisher supports the date format as 'YYYY-MM-DD' only.
Thanks,
Raj.

I got the same problem, anyone know how to solve this problem? I allready found some date functions on http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/2008/09/date_functions.html . I also tried <?xdoxslt:month_name(xdoxslt:get_month(xdofx:substr(NEED_BY_DATE, 4,3)), $_XDOLOCALE), 0, 'nl-NL')?>, but then it returns a namespace error (Caused by: oracle.xdo.parser.v2.XPathException: Namespace prefix 'xdofx' used but not declared.). Anyone know how to fix this?

Convertinf Date format from YYYY-MM-DD to MMDDYYYY

Hi Experts,

i tryed using date tranfer funcion source as yyyy-MM-dd and target as MMddyyyy this is giving error.
Please help me out,
Thanks,

Hi,
From the error it looks like the date value is coming as blank in the source. please give the date in the same format as you have provided in datetrans function and test it again. It will work.
It might be possible that there are some other date fields in your source where you are not passing any value and using datefunction. please look carefully at all the source structure and data.

Hi,
You can get it from "User" or "Shop" business object.
Try to get User or Shop Business Object as shown below.
BusinessObjectManager bom = (BusinessObjectManager) userSessionData.getBOM(BusinessObjectManager.ISACORE_BOM);
User user = bom.getUser();
char decimalNotation = user.getDecimalPointFormat().getGroupingSeparator();
If you are seeing "1,234.00" then above code will return "."
I hope this information help you to resolve your issue.
