Date field issues

Hello everybody
I have a client application that sends a date field as parameter to a servlet but the date sent is different from the date received by the servlet!
I send for example Feb, 22 2005 and the servlet receives Feb, 21 2005!
I think that my code is pretty simple. here it is:
client code:
output.write(("Date="+ Long.toString(logDate.getDate())+ "&").getBytes());
server side code:
String _logDate = request.getParameter("Date");
java.util.Date dt = new java.util.Date(Long.parseLong(_logDate));
thanks for any information

it would probably be safer to use SimpleDateFormatter to convert it from date to string and vice versa. using a long, means that each side will use it's regional settings/time of day to convert the raw number, and if they are different, get different results.

  • Dates fields issue in the sales orders through IDOC

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to create a sales order through Inbound IDOC using IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS.
    I have 2 custom fields in the sales order which are date fields.
    I'm populating them from the IDOC segments(using E1EDKT1-tdid, E1EDKT2-tdline) in the user-exit just before the call trasacation statement. These dates are not coming for a few orders... but are getting populated normally for few of them.
    But the tricky part is that... if I process the same IDOC for the second time.. the order created is having the dates.
    My issue is that.. i need all the orders to be populated with the dates which IDOC have.
    Could anyone please help me with this issue.
    All the answers/replies are highly appreciated!!
    Thanks for you help!

    hi,
    the following may be of help
    There are 2 major exceptions to the batch input internal table. All text data from the segments E1EDKT1/2 and E1EDPT1/2 are not part of the batch input session. Text elements from these segments are posted directly to the data base AFTER the sales order has been created (please note: in order that item texts are posted correctly to the sales order the field POSEX from segment E1EDP01 MUST be transmitted). Also, configurable material information from the IDOC is exported to a global memory and therefore will not be part of the batch input session. Configurable material data is performed in Form CHECK_CONFIGURATION and the data is exported to global memory in the following code:
    Exportiert IDOC Daten ins globale Memory     
    export IDOC data to global memory            
      call function 'CUXC_IDOC_TO_MEMORY'          
           tables                                  
                cfg_instref = xe1curef             
                cfg_ref     = xe1cucfg             
                inst        = xe1cuins             
                part_of     = xe1cuprt             
                value       = xe1cuval             
           exceptions                              
                error       = 1                    
                others      = 2.                   
    One extra piece of useful infomartion if you wish to debug the process is to set your breakpoints at the following points
    for Function module IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS
    include LVEDAF0F..
      CALL TRANSACTION 'VA01' USING bdcdata
                                MODE  input_method
                                UPDATE 'S'
                                MESSAGES INTO xbdcmsgcoll.
    Now input_method is A foreground process and N for background processing but try changing it to P (pass through mode)
    If you have breakpoints in va01, e.g. MV45AF0B_BELEG_SICHERN,(the part where the sales document is saved)
    they will be hit, e.g
    perform userexit_save_document_prepare.
    perform userexit_save_document.
    Lastly, don't forget using program SDJEDI , see note 380603 for more information on this
    Hope this is useful

  • CSS sheet covers up date drop down, and other Date field issues

    Portland needs a little help once again.
    My CSS stylesheet object acts like it has a higher "zIndex" then the date dropdown on an inputField.  This causes me to only see half the calendar or none of it.  Anyone else seen this and how did you get around it.
    Also, When I test my BSP page the date drop downs, tables, etc all look great.  However when the BSP page is rendered on an iView in EP6.0 they look terrible.  Colors change, etc.  What is happening here and how do I get around it.

  • Issue in displaying DATE field in Excel sheet

    Hi All,
    Kindly help me with the below issue:
    A report program when exexuted fetches the data's from database tables and populates in to an itab and the same is then moved to a itab which is declared like this:
    DATA: BEGIN OF t_downd OCCURS 0,
            line(4096) TYPE c,
          END OF t_downd.
    This T_DOWND will have all the obtained records and the same is used to pass the entries to GUI_DOWNLOAD function module inorder to save the excel sheet in '.csv' format to the desktop.
    The issue is the user wants the 'DATE' field to be displayed in 'DD-MM-YYYY' format in the excel sheet. So I have fetched the date based on the position(fdpos) and used the concatenate statement separated by '-'. Now when I run the program, some dates are not getting displayed in 'DD-MM-YYYY' format and some dates are getting displayed correctly as per the requirement.
    While debugging also, I could find the date value in T_DOWND in the 'DD-MM-YYYY' format only. Not sure where it is actually getting changed and why.
    Can some one please provide a soultion for this.
    Thanks,
    Deepa

    Hi Soumya,
    Thanks for the reply!
    I declared a constant in the below format for the quotes:
    constants : c_quotes type c value ''''. (i have put 4 quotes)
    Now i have concatenated the above quotes to my date value.
    But the output in the excel sheet is now getting displayed like this '30-02-2011
    All the dates are getting displayed in the correct expected format, but the only issue is we are getting an extra quotes in front of the date.
    Can you please suggest why this is happening.
    Thanks,
    Deepa

    Take the Substring Function From Text Functionsand mention the position from 0 to 10 to take the Date alone from the Whole String which is getting in Source Field.
    And after that apply the Transform date Function fron Date Functions and mention the source date format and the target date foramt that needs to convert into.

  • Issue loading ODS having single Data field when it is set to "No Updpate"

    Hi Gurus,
    I have a standard ODS object with 6 Keyfields & 1 Datafield.
    I am updating it from an Infosouce with help of Update Rules.
    In the Update rules:
    The 6 Keyfields are mapped from the Infosource fields which has relevant data.
    The one Data field needs to be set to "No Update" because there is no relevant field from the Infosource.
    Issue is surfacing with this Data field being set to "No Update"
    when I run the Infopackage even though there are relevant fields in Infosource for the 6 Keyfields none of them are getting updated.
    But when I set the Data field to "Overwrite" and for Update method give some constant or write some Routine and give the Result as 0, the rest 6 Keyfields are also getting updated from the Info source.
    My question is....
    If ODS is having only one Data field, is it mandatory that I have to update it with some value ?
    Can't I set it to "No Update" and load just the Key fields ?
    Thanks in advance,
    Venkat

    Thanks for the inputs.
    Even I had to agree if there is only one Data field in the ODS I have to set to some kind of Update...
    But.....I couldn't find it in writing (in  document) no where from the Web.
    Could anyone point out a document which confirms/explains this ?
    Thanks,

  • Issue with a date field

    Hi,
    I have a pl/sql page that is the output of a select statement with some conditions.
    One of the condition is like:
    AND MyColumn between (:P1_MyDateItem - 7 , :P1_MyDateItem)
    but as soon as I include an addition or substraction (:P1_datefield - 7) , I get ORA-06550: line 18, column 28: PL/SQL: ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected DATE got NUMBER
    How can I resolve that error?
    Also,
    I am trying to pass the date field to a second page in a hidden field. In a similar scenario as the one described above, how can I manipulate the date using the hidden field. ie. in my testing, I think it kind of converts the "date" into "char' format?? can I also do the same manipulation "Date-7" but this time using a hidden field instead?
    Thanks

Yes, if that's what you want to do. A date field is just a text box, made nicer with the jQuery Date Picker.
    so date picker:
    <input type="text" value="12/14/2011" />
    to a hidden item
    <input type="hidden" value="12/14/2011" />
    only difference being the display type.
    Just remember to convert it to a date in your pl/sql code.

  • Issue with fetching records when SalesForce Date Fields involved

    Using the Events application of Salesforce I enter a record of data.  The record has a Start Date of Monday and an End Date of Friday for a given week.  Crystal will not fetch/display the record in the report.  If I go back and change the Start Date and the end Date to teh same day, the record will print in Crystal.
    Is there some Date flag within Crystal that I need to toggle allowing a record to print based on date ranges?  I don't understand why a record would print when Start and End Date are the same but will not print when different?

    Here is the code....  I have also noticed that there are three fields - Start Date, End Date and Due Date.  Only when all 3 fields are set to the same value within Salesforce will the record print in Crystal.  I have tried removing any reference to the Date fields in the crystal report but its not helping

  • Cannot add hub-managed content type with external list lookup columns to a list -- Error:Id field is not set on the external data field

    This is a variation on the issue mentioned in this
    post
    We are using SP 2010 Content Hub to manage our content types.  On the content hub we've created a couple of exteranl lists, and then created some site columns as lookups against these lists.  We then added the columns to one of our content types
    and set it to publish.
    After the publishing job executed, I tried adding the content type (which now appears on the subscriber sites) to one of the document libraries on one of the subscriber sites.  When I did that it threw the following error:

    I checked the external  content type configuration and it did specify an "id column".  Anyone know if what I am attempting to do is possible and if so, what special configurations are required?
    Thanks

    The issue is not External Content type or external list but the look up column.
    It's not possible to publish a look up column via the Content Type Hub.
    If you need to do this then an alternate way is to use a Managed Metadata column instead, otherwise you will have to implement this via a feature.

  • Infoset Join condition on Key feilds and data fields

    Hi Guys,
    I have a requirement to biuld the Info set with join conditon on two DSO's  the info objects which i am using in the JOin condition are defined as data fieds in one DSO and defined as key fields in another DSO, is it possible to define join condition on key fields and data fields.

    Hi
    yes you can create join, you will get any issue in reporting level.
    example: Say i want to create Info Set on 0MATERIAL and Sales DSO.
    In 0MATERIAL Info Object it is key filed, but in my DSO 0MATERIAL is data field.Still we can create
    Creation of join is dependent on fields common in your source objects.

  • Data fields not filled in DSO Activation

    Dear All,
    I have written an End routine to extract data into a DSO to fill some data fields. The End routine will perform a lookup on another DSO and modifies the records of the result_package. The data fields are characteristics and hence in the transformation, they are set to No Transformation.
    When I extracted the data into DSO, the new table has all the data fields correctly filled. But, after activating the request, all the data fileds data are erased. However, the keyfields data is still available in the Active table.
    Can you please help me on this.
    Thanks,
    Srinivas

    Hi Srinivas
    I have faced the same issue.Data was coming till new table,but after activation fields were getting
    blank.
    There is no necessity for doing a dummy mapping. In the transformation screen you will be having an ikon near to the delete
    routine symbol with an arrow symbol
    similar to select all and unselect all, just clikc on it and then mention the setting as Update all the target fields need to be populated.
    This will solve the issue, if it is not solved, then you can make a direct mapping to any of the field in the source, it need not be the
    exact field in the target.
    Thanks,

  • DATE fields and LOG files  in context with external tables

    I am facing two problems when dealing with the external tables feature in Oracle 9i.
    I created an External Table with some fileds with the DATE data type . There were no issues during the creation part. But when i query the table, the DATE fields are not properly selected though the data is there in the files. Is there any ideas to deal with this ?
    My next question is regarding the log files. The contents in the log file seems to be growing when querying the external tables. Is there a way to control this behaviour?
    Suggestions / Advices on the above two issues are welcome.
    Thanks
    Lakshminarayanan

    Hi
    If you have date datatypes than:
    select
    greatest(TABCASER1.CASERRECIEVEDDATE, EVCASERS.FINALEVDATES, EVCASERS.PUBLICATIONDATE, EVCASERS.PUBLICATIONDATE, TABCASER.COMPAREACCEPDATE)
    from TABCASER, TABCASER1, EVCASERS
    where ...-- join and other conditions
    1. greatest is good enough
    2. to_date creates date dataype from string with the format of format string ('mm/dd/yyyy')
    3. decode(a, b, c, d) is a function: if a = b than return c else d. NULL means that there is no data in the cell of the table.
    6. to format the date for display use to_char function with format modell as in the to_date function.

  • Defining Key -field and data fields

    Hi all
    i have to define Key-Fields and data-Fields for a DSO(say DSO3).
    DSO1 is a combination of DSO2 and DSO3..
    DSO1 and DSO2 are SAP defined DSOs.
    DSO3 is a User defined DSO.
    my assumption:
       DSO3 has 30 fields
       DSO2 has 16 fields.
       can i create the DSO3 with remaining 14 fields which is there in DSO1?
       or i have to create the DSO3 with 30 fields(all DSO1 fields).
    can any body explain....
    Thanks & Regards
    krishna

    The problem is not how many fields you create where, the issue is where is the data is going to come from.
    Since you data is going from DSO3 to DSO1and if the field is already getting populated in DSO1 from DSO2, then you don't have to worry about populating those fields again, unless and otherwise you want to overwrite them.
    Remember any fields exist in both DSO3 and DSO2 which overlapping will be overwritten by the latest update.
    Again, going back to your question, you should consider does your datasource has missing fields (14 of them).
    thanks.
