Date Format -"2010-08-29 10:00:01+03:00"

Hi All,
Would like to know what the data format for following date:
"2010-08-29 10:00:01+03:00"
I did try the below, but it does not work.
'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS+TZH:MI'
Appreciate your response.
Thanks,
Alex.

Omit the '+' and use THZ:TZM:
SQL> select to_timestamp_tz('2010-08-29 10:00:01+03:00', 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:sstzh:tzm') from dual;
TO_TIMESTAMP_TZ('2010-08-2910:00:01+03:00','YYYY-MM-DDHH24:MI:SSTZH:TZM')
29-08-10 10:00:01,000000000 +03:00
1 row selected.or (more clear):
SQL> select to_timestamp_tz('2010-08-29 10:00:01+03:00', 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss tzh:tzm') from dual;
TO_TIMESTAMP_TZ('2010-08-2910:00:01+03:00','YYYY-MM-DDHH24:MI:SSTZH:TZM')
29-08-10 10:00:01,000000000 +03:00

Change Date Format in VC from Mon Feb 20 00:00:00 GMT 2010

Hi Gurus,
Could someone please offer advice on how I'd change the following field, Mon Feb 20 00:00:00 GMT 2010 to a simple MON 20 FEB 2010?
Thanks,
Bim.

Hi Bim,
You can use the dynamic expression editor to get a short date format.
for example, set the value of a field to =DATE(2010,02,20).
I'm not sure this is what you've asked, if it doesn't help you can you please elaborate some more ?

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.

Problem with SQL*Loader and different date formats in the same file

DB: Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bi
System: AIX 5.3.0.0
Hello,
I'm using SQL*Loader to import semi-colon separated values into a table. The files are delivered to us by a data provider who concatenates data from different sources and this results in us having different date formats within the same file. For example:
...;2010-12-31;22/11/1932;...
I load this data using the following lines in the control file:
EXECUTIONDATE1 TIMESTAMP NULLIF EXECUTIONDATE1=BLANKS "TO_DATE(:EXECUTIONDATE1, 'YYYY-MM-DD')",
DELDOB TIMESTAMP NULLIF DELDOB=BLANKS "TO_DATE(:DELDOB, 'DD/MM/YYYY')",
The relevant NLS parameters:
NLS_LANGUAGE=FRENCH
NLS_DATE_FORMAT=DD/MM/RR
NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE=FRENCH
If I load this file as is the values loaded into the table are 31 dec 2010 and 22 nov *2032*, aven though the years are on 4 digits. If I change the NLS_DATE_FORMAT to DD/MM/YYYY then the second date value will be loaded correctly, but the first value will be loaded as 31 dec *2020* !!
How can I get both date values to load correctly?
Thanks!
Sylvain

This is very strange, after running a few tests I realized that if the year is 19XX then it will get loaded as 2019, and if it is 20XX then it will be 2020. I'm guessing it may have something to do with certain env variables that aren't set up properly because I'm fairly sure my SQL*Loader control file is correct... I'll run more tests :-(

Date format of footer in pdf

How to change the date format of footer from dd/mm/yyyy to Monday 09 August 2010 when we down load the report in pdf file

Hi,
Revenue is a sample column. You can pull any measure column used in the report.
And put this formula in a separate new column. And in the narrative view use this column number.For Ex- if the number of the column in the criteria is 15, then mention @15 in the narrative view.
NOTE-Rows to display in narrative view should be set to 1.
And in the formula-CEILING(CAST(COUNT("F1 Revenue"."1-01 Revenue (Sum All)") as DOUBLE)/ 25)
25 refers to the number of row count to display. You can define the number according to your requirement.

Bex Analyser : Date Format error.

Hi All,
We are facing date format error, while running the query in Bex analyzer.
We have one column in report i.e Net Payment Date, so when we run the query in analyzer the single date like "5-6-2010 is getting swapped like 6-5-10 & year also showing two digits i.e instead of 2010 it shows 10" & date like "12-09-2010 is coming perfectly."
Means the date which is in single digit we are facing this problem like 1 to 9 & the dates which are 10 & above showing perfectly.
In RSRT the query showing proper result, so i don't think it's BI problem.
The regional setting is DD-MM-YYYY & Date separator is '-' & we don't want to change this format.
Is there any SAP note or any solution for this..??
All the replays are gr8ly appreciated.
Thanks,
Santosh

Hi Santosh,
how about web display? is it ok? for me it seems more an Excel problem, so maybe you should check if there is special formatingin this.

Acrobat 9.3.4 doesn't enforce Date Formating

After we upgraded to Acrobat 9.3.4 from a previous version of 9.3 acrobat doesn't enforce date formating..before in a Text field formated as Date mm/dd/yyyy it would autocompelete if we typed in 9/21 to 9/21/2010.. now it doesn't, we can type any random text in the field and it isn't validated.
Ideas?

Just checked, its enabled.. when I say validate I'm referring to Acrobat's internal date format validation, not JavaScript.
For example if you create a text box, goto properties, format tab, format category = date, date options mm/dd/yyyy
now if you type:
"abcdef" in that text box it should say, "Invalid Date/time: please ensure that the date/time exists.
if you type 9/21 it will automatically turn it into 9/21/2010.
After Appling the 9.3.4 update no such validation takes place, any value entered is accepted..

DATE Format Error in ODI-11g(11.1.1.3)

I am using ETL transformations in ODI-11g. There's a dominant issue regarding date formattings when I map an ODI variable (storing date) with a TGT column(datatype=date) mappings.
In all the src-tgt mappings I am formatting the date by using TO_DATE() functions. But still getting the error:
"ORA-01830: date format picture ends before converting entire input string".
A point to Note: The same ETL in other env are ruuning fine but in my new dev env it's giving this date error.
I had checked with the DBA folks and they confirmed they set equal DATE settings in all the env.
The ODI Variable is defined as an "Alphanumeric".
Tx Used: #BUSINESS_CURRENT_DT=TO_DATE('Date','YYYY-MM-DD')
Require some urgent advice...Please let me know

Hi,
W store name-value pair in the Control table from where we exctract our data. Both (param name and param value) are varchars.
Well this looks pretty strange in 11g! Here's what we found out...
If you are trying to retrieve a date variable by using TO_DATE() in the refresh query the ODI Java driver (JDK 1.6) would call java.sql.timestamp and gracefully attach HH:MI:SS.NS along with the date (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MI:SS.NS). My target ia a date always..!
So, when I do: TO_DATE('20101010','YYYY-MM-DD) in the refresh query ODI stores it as '2010-10-10 00:00:00.0'
For this the Load always fails as Oracle would not be able to interpret a timestamp by suing TO_DATE()
The Java driver does this damage. However, it may be wise to store as a timestamp rather as a date if in case u do a Data capture and want the exact time credentials.
Unfortunately not a req, as of now for us so I had to chop-off the timestamp..!
Let me know if you find any other details...
Thanks.!

What people are saying is that date columns (of DATE datatype) are stored internally using a fixed internal notation, which is essentially a series of bytes that describe the date.
e.g.

14 rows selected.Here, you can see from the dumped dates that they are all stored as 7 bytes of data, which sort of resemble the date you see on the screen in some way, but not quite. It's an internal format that Oracle understands and uses, and it's important it's stored in this way so that date arithmetic and date range comparisons can be performed easily (and quickly) in queries.

SQL>Again, the internal date format remains the same.
It is important that, when you store date information you store it as DATE datatype and let oracle use it's internal format, so that it can accurately do the date arithmetic, date range searches and date ordering etc., that everyone likes to do in queries. If you try and store it as VARCHAR2 then not only can information be lost (i.e. is '01/02/2010' representing 1st February 2010 or is it 2nd January 2010?) but you prevent date arithmetic, range searches and ordering in your queries from working correctly (i.e. '03/01/2009' would work out to be a greater date than '01/02/2010'). To prove it...

Date format in apex 4.1

hello
we have custom table for an apex application. In that table we have DATE type for column1(for eg)
When column1 is inserted via APEX, we use standard apex date picker and DD-MON-RRRR format. After we insert and when we refreshh the apex page to see
we see values like 10-OCT-10 not 10-OCT-2010,,
any idea or fix..
I tried in the source sql select statement [for that region] with to_date(column1,'DD-MON-YYYY') ..but was not successful
Also i followed same for insert statment with no luck
please advise
kp

Hi,
As you mentioned, its a date field in column, there are two approaches.
Method1: Go to your report attributes, click the pencil icon next to it and look
In Column Attributes Block:Number/Date Format
Method2: As its a date field, change like this in your report query
to_char(column1, 'DD-MON-YYYY')

Date Format in calculations

Hi all,
we are currently upgrading our discoverer from version 3.1.25 to version 10.2.0.1.0.
we have an old report that had been created with the old version and saved on the computer (not in the database) with a date calculation on a date parameter as follows: <table_name>.<date_field> - :DATEPARAMETER (the date format of the two dates values is DD/MM/YYYY).
This calculation works fine on the old discoverer version when we run it, but when we try to run the report on the new discoverer desktop version (10.2.0.1.0) we get an error that the parameter is incorrect.
the thing is that if i convert the date format manually using the to_date function on the parameter, it works fine.
My question is what is the default date format for the calculations, and how can i set it myself?
i already added the NLS_DATE_FORMAT key in the registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> ORACLE, but it doesn't work, it changes the date format of the date fields that are presented in the table after a report execution.
In addition, if we save the report to the database using the desktop version and try to run the report on discoverer plus, we get the same error and need to perform the same solution (convert the parameter manually with to_date).

I am working with dates.
1st I want to calculate a time span for example calculate cell A2 - cell A1. In cell A1 it is written 01.01.2010 (so first of January) and in cell A2 01.02.2010 (so first of February). I wrote the dates in letters, too, to avoid misunderstandings due to different national date formats.
Since January has 31 days, the obvious result thereof is "31D". So far so good.
but now I want to multiply the 31 with a numeric value, but not the 31D, because if I do so, and let's say the numeric value is 3, then my result is 93 DAYS rather than just 93.
Are you sure you're asking in the right forum?
Using Numbers '08, with the following entries:
B2: Jan 1, 2010
C2: Feb 1,2010
D2: =C2-B2
E2: =3*D2
I get 31 (not 31D) in D2 and 93 (not 93 DAYS) in D2.
From your description, I think you're actually using Numbers '09, and Jerry's advice above applies.

Hello Shaun,
The function wb_rt_conversions.from_date is (at least in OWB10.2) overloaded and can with input-types as
date, timestamp_unconstrained, timestamp_tz_unconstrained, timestamp_ltz_unconstrained or varchar2.
If it doesn't work with varchar2 I would try Date:
For example: to_date('2010-01-01','YYYY-MM-DD')

Dates Format in Promts using Session Variables

Hi Experts,
I have an issue in controlling date format in prompts using session variable which I am using to set default value.
By default date format is timestamp E.g '2010-12-19 12:00:00 AM'.
As per requriement(s) I customized the date format in Reports as 19-Dec-2010 and I saved it as "System Wide Default for <Date Column Name> "
So, I got desired format in Reports and Date Prompts.
Now, I need to set a default value in Date Prompt. So, in RPD I created a Session Variable which returned me date in
DD-MON-YYYY format. Using follwing SQL :
SELECT REPLACE(CONVERT(VARCHAR(11), Getdate (), 106), ' ', '-') AS [DD-Mon-YYYY]
But in reports takes this value as string and not Datetime. So i got an error message.
A datetime value was expected (received "19-Dec-2010").
If i do not use above SQL to CONVERT date then default date in prompt get displayed as timestamp format and give me desired results but Formatting looks very odd in prompt
Is this a way so I can persist the [DD-Mon-YYYY] Formatting for default value which comes using variable and still run the report.
Above problem also exist vice versa that is if i SET that session variable and pass the datetime value to server. But there i guess I can use ToDate or some Casting in RPD column expression to handle that. Tell me if i am right ?
Thanks

That almost works. I had to adjust the syntax to the following...and then there are other issues doing this.
select cust_no, name,'@{session.currentUser}' from customersMy write-back SQL is this:
UPDATE customers SET NAME='@{c1}',LAST_EDITED_BY='@{c2}' WHERE CUST_NO=@{c0}But I don't want to display the cust_no column to the user. So I hide it in the UI. But if I do that I get the below error during write-back. Apparently sometimes when you hide a column on a direct query (numeric maybe?) the value doesn't transfer over to the write-back. If that's the case, this won't work for me. Hmm...
