Thanx you for your help

hai Fabrice
The numeric field is converted into a character field. The character field is then converted into a date field (see corresponding table).

How can i convert the date from M to MM ?

Dear Guru ,
I need to upload my list to SAP table , and in the list , we are using YYYY/M/D format ( Eg. 2010/5/20 , 2010/10/1 ) .
And now i want to convert all date format to YYYY/MM/DD , Is it possibile to do that ?
Here is my code , but it doesn't work . It returned "2009//3//5" format .
data: ld_date_int type datum.
data : test(10) type c.
test = '2009/3/5' .
ld_date_int = test .
WRITE : SY-SUBRC , LD_DATE_int .
Does SAP provide a standard function can convert the date format ?
Thanks .
Best Regards,
Carlos Zhang

Hi Dear
You can try in this way :::
data: ld_date_int type string.
DATA : ld_string TYPE string.
data : test(10) type c,
       ld_res1(4) TYPE c,
       ld_res2(2) TYPE c,
       ld_res3(2) TYPE c.
DATA : ll_res2 TYPE i,
       ll_res3 TYPE i.
test = '2009/03/5' .
ld_date_int = test .
ld_string = strlen( ld_date_int ).
CASE ld_string.
WHEN 10.
   WRITE : SY-SUBRC , LD_DATE_int.
WHEN OTHERS.
    SPLIT ld_date_int at '/' INTO ld_res1 ld_res2 ld_res3 in CHARACTER MODE.
    ll_res2 = strlen( ld_res2 ).
    ll_res3 = strlen( ld_res3 ).
    IF NOT ll_res2 eq 2 and not ll_res3 eq 2.
      CONCATENATE: '0' ld_res2 INTO ld_res2.
      CONCATENATE: '0' ld_res3 INTO ld_res3.
      CONCATENATE ld_res1 '/' ld_res2 '/' ld_res3 INTO ld_date_int.
      WRITE : SY-SUBRC , LD_DATE_int.
    ENDIF.
    IF ll_res2 eq 2 and not ll_res3 eq 2.
      CONCATENATE '0' ld_res3 INTO ld_res3.
      CONCATENATE ld_res1 '/' ld_res2 '/' ld_res3 INTO ld_date_int.
      WRITE : SY-SUBRC , LD_DATE_int.
    ENDIF.
    IF NOT ll_res2 eq 2 and ll_res3 eq 2.
       CONCATENATE: '0' ld_res2 INTO ld_res2.
        CONCATENATE ld_res1 '/' ld_res2 '/' ld_res3 INTO ld_date_int.
         WRITE : SY-SUBRC , LD_DATE_int.
    ENDIF.

How can i convert the data from mutiple-table to the other database(MSSQL)?

Dears,
How can i convert the data from mutiple-table to the other database such as MS-SQL?
I have a third party system based on MS-SQL 2000.
Now we want to make a integration between SAP R/3(Oracle) and SQL server.
When my user releases the purchase order in R/3, the application we coded will convert the releated data to the temp database on the SQL server.
But i don't know which tools will help me reach the purpose. BAPI, LSMW, IDoc... ???
Would anybody tell me which way is better and how to do?
Thanks a lot!
Kevin Wang

Hello Kevin,
The question to use which method depend on your detail requirements. If you use BAPI, you need to find which Bapi can provide the data you want. Bapi normally use as a function called by external system. So you need to develop an external program like VB/Java to call this Bapi and move it to SQL. LSMW is use when you want to upload data from an external system to SAP. So it does not serve your requirement. Idoc can be use to export data to an external system. Again like Bapi, you need to find what Idoc can provide the data you want. However, it does not any programming from the external system. If I were you, based on your requirements, I think writing an Abap program that read the data you want and download it to NT/SQL server will be faster and easier.

Need to have 'variable name' node in the converted XML data.

i am converting the abap data to xml using cl_xml_document. in the converted xml data, i need to have one more node. in the below example, i want a node <variable name="productionOrderDetails"> to come after the Data node.
?xml version="1.0"?>
<Data>
     <item>
          <DISPO>100</DISPO>
          <PLNBEZ>F126</PLNBEZ>
          <GAMNG>300.000</GAMNG>
          <ERFMG>285.000</ERFMG>
          <PRE_PROD>100.000</PRE_PROD>
          <PRE_BLOG>0.000</PRE_BLOG>
          <BLOG_MTD>144.000</BLOG_MTD>
          <BAL_PLAN>144.000</BAL_PLAN>
     </item>
</Data>
thanks in advance

Hi ,
you can use class IF_IXML_NODE, first you need to read (go thru ) XML then need to Insert a New Node.

Loading & converting geographical data to/in hana

Current situation:
source system: MS SQL Server 2008 containing spatial data
SAP DS is our core loading technique
SAP HANA our target.
In HANA there is the column type ST_GEOMETRY or ST_POINT that can hold the geographical specific data. There are also functions how to use them (ST_Distance for example)...... but the main question is: how can i load this kind of data to HANA?
Within SAP DS there is no special column type like ST_GEOMETRY:
When trying to use blob (binary like spatial data) the DS failes. So my main question is, how can i correctly load geographical data from a non SAP system?

Hi Henk,
Officially only loading spatial data from HANA and Oracle is certified with Data Services 4.2. When loading from Oracle, Data Services is generating a Sql statement that contains a function to convert the Oracle spatial field to WKT. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well-known_text
You could try to build a view in Sql Server that does the same. The geometry field in HANA is recognized by Data Services as a long (Hana sps7) or blob (Hana sps8), so you need a query statement that converts the output of your spatial field from the view into the appropriate data type in Hana. I'm not sure if its correctly loaded into Hana, but its the best you can do with the latest Data Services version.
Another option would be to load Esri shape files into Hana, but thats a manual operation.
Best regards,
Stefan Koster

How can I convert a .dat to a .zip on a Mac?

Hi -
I friend wanted me to update his company's website which runs on a MS Exchange Server/Sharepoint set up. He zipped all the html, jpeg, and assorted text files and attached that zip file to an email. When I received it on my Mac it had been converted to a ".dat" file. He tells me that this is the result of sending a zipped file over the MS Exchange Server mail system to a Mac. (Whatever happened to cross-platform?)
Is there a Mac utility I can use to convert this dat file back to a zip file that I then can open on my Mac?
TIA

Convert a date in String format to a Date

Hi,
How can I convert a date in String format to a Date object?
I have tried:
import java.text.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.Locale;
import java.sql.*;
public class casa {
public static Connection con = null;
public static Statement s = null;
public static String sql = null;
public static String mydate = "01.01.2001";
/** Creates a new instance of casa */
public casa() {
public static void main(String[] args) throws SQLException{
try {
DateFormat shortFormat = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT);
Date date = shortFormat.parse(mydate);
//Open Database
con = getConnection();
s = con.createStatement();
sql = "select date1 from table1 where date1 <= '"+date+"'";
ResultSet rs = s.executeQuery(sql);
while(rs.next()){
String aba = rs.getString("datum");
System.out.println("New Datum = "+aba);
} catch (Exception ex ) {
ex.printStackTrace();
closeConnection(s, con);
//Connection
private static Connection getConnection() {
Connection con = null;
String user ="aouzi";
String passe ="aouzi";
String url = "jdbc:db2:EjbTest";
try {
//Datenbanktreiber laden
Class.forName("COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2Driver");
//Verbindung herstellen
con = DriverManager.getConnection(url,user,passe);
}catch(ClassNotFoundException e){
} catch(SQLException e){}
return con;
//close Connection
private static void closeConnection(Statement s, Connection con) {
try {
s.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {}
try {
con.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {}
I'm getting the following errors:
COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2Exception: [IBM][CLI Driver][DB2/NT] SQL0180N
The syntax of the representation of a date/time of day value as character sequence is false. .SQLSTATE=22007

I'm pretty sure it won't understand what date.toString() returns. If you know what format the database understands, you do it like this:
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMM-yy"); // e.g. 18-Apr-02
String datestring = sdf.parse(date);
and use that instead of date in your sql string. Some databases understands it if you do
"to_date('18-Apr-02')"
so you could include that in your sql string as well..
You could also try to make it a java.sql.Date and hope your jdbc driver knows how to convert it to a string that the database understands if you don't know the format:
con = getConnection();
PreparedStatement ps = con.prepareStatement("select date1 from table1 where date1 <= ?");
ps.setDate(new java.sql.Date(date.getTime()));
ResultSet rs = s.executeQuery(sql);

ABAP code in update rules to convert the date

Hi,
Could any one send me the ABAP code that is written in the update rules to convert the date (DD/MM/YYYY -- lenght 10) to YYYYMMDD --- length 8 format.
Also please let me know where I should write this code; while creating update rules or while creating infosource.
Thanks,

Hi Bharath,
Hi Bharath,
I suggest you do the conversion of dates in the transfer rules. Here is the correct code you need:
* Assuming the source data field is called MYDATE
* Place the ff. in the routine in the transfer rules:
concatenate tran_structure-mydate+6(4) tran_structure-mydate+3(2) tran_structure-mydate(2) into result.
replace MYDATE with the name of the source field (10 chars) in the transfer structure. Hope this helps.

Sample code converting binary data to image file

Hi experts ,
I need sample code to convert binary data (bytes) in to an image file.
any help will be appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Naresh

You need to show binary and decimal? Or now just decimal?
If binary and decimal, you can right click on your indicator and choose "Display Format...". If you select the Advanced Editing Mode, you can make soft interesting display formats. This includes showing the same value in mulitple ways in the indicator. Try something like "%032b - %d" for the format string.

Converting a date time to a date only

Post Author: Dockman
CA Forum: Formula
I am working on a report that has a running total field. The running total field keeps a running total and resets every time that a date changes. the problem is that my dates include times, therefore the running total resets on every line. How can I convert my date (in date time format) to be only a date so that it does not reset on every line?
Obviously, I am not a programmer so I apologize if this is a stupid question.

Converting a Date in UTC to the current timezone

I have a library which returns a Date in UTC.
I need to convert this Date to the current timezone, and then format it using SimpleDateFormat.
I've been trying for a while now, and I can't figure it out? Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Adam

SimpleDateFormat takes a timezone.
Date d = getDateInUTC();
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy");
TimeZone tz = TimeZone.getTimeZone("PST")
sdf.setTimeZone(tz);
String sDate = sdf.format(d);
