Date format in XML Forms

Hi all,
I already have done my article using XML FORMS. I added into the article the date field that I needed. So, I would like to format the date output in Render List as dd/mm/yyyy instead of mm/dd/yyyy. Its possible? Anyone knows how to do it?
Thanks in advanced,
Alcides Flach

Hi,
By adding in the Additional Metadata parameter the entry "customFormat=dd.MM.yy", you'll force the display of this property to this format. Look at SAP note 816761 for more info about this.

You could go to System - User Profile - Own Data would take you to the "maintain user profile screen"
Click the defaults button and change the date format.This changes date format for all the dates in your login.

Hi Dharam,
you can change the date format in the KM Layout set as described here:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/thread?threadID=240057
but the XML Forms functionality does not refer to the additional format information set on he property as you can read here:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/thread?threadID=105044
Hope this helps,

Date format in xml file

I am relatively new to XML and JSP.I am on a project where i have to transfer data to and from an Oracle 8i database to XML using JSP.everything worked fine except for the follwing:
the date format in xml is always 'yyyy-mm-dd HH:MM:SS'.
the datatype is date in oracle and string in jsp.when i try to upload the data in XML to oracle it gives me date format not recognised error.I ve tried using trunc and to_char in the query which fetches records into a recordset in JSP but to no avail.i keep getting the same format.
Can someone please help with with having the date format as 'dd-mon-yyyy'.
Thanks a heap for the help

Hi,
I ve tried out the solutions suggested by you and tried using java.sql.Timestamp
as follow:
<%@ page import="java.sql.*" %>
<%@ page import="java.io.*" %>
<%@ page import="oracle.sql.*" %>
String dateString = rset.getString("installation_dt");
java.sql.Timestamp date = new java.sql.Timestamp.valueOf(dateString);
But tomcat throws up the following error
:104:
cannot resolve symbol
symbol : class valueOf
location: class java.sql.Timestamp
java.sql.Timestamp date = new java.sql.Timestamp.valueOf(dateString);
Hope you can help me.
Thanks a heap

Time format in xml forms

Hello.
I'm having a problem with the time format in the xml forms generated from one of the pdf forms I have made in live cycle. The time is already set to be HH:MM:SS, but when my users are submitting at e.g. 8:00 the time in the xml file is 8:00:00 and not 08:00:00, which I would like it to be, because of the validating going on in my database.
Is that possible?
Best regards
Mathias

Try with the below patterns for the Date Time field..
Display Pattern: time{HH:MM:SS}
Edit Pattern: time{H:M} //I am assuming the users will not enter the seconds in the input.
Data Pattern: time{HH:MM:SS}
Thanks

Date format in XML conversion

Hello,
I am using oracle8i. The date format is not giving the proper date values in XML conversion..
create table test(dt date);
insert into test values(sysdate);
insert into test values(sysdate);
insert into test values(sysdate);
TEST.WORLD> select * from test;
DT
28-NOV-04
28-NOV-04
28-NOV-04
set autoprint on
set long 100000
set linesize 100000
set longchunksize 100000
var g_clob clob
declare
l_ctx dbms_xmlquery.ctxType;
l_clob clob;
begin
l_ctx := dbms_xmlquery.newContext('select dt from test');
dbms_lob.createtemporary(:g_clob,true,dbms_lob.session);
dbms_xmlquery.setdateformat(l_ctx,'yyyy-mm-dd');
:g_clob := dbms_xmlquery.getXml(l_ctx);
end;
Here is the output . It is dispalying the 03 For the month november.
<?xml version = '1.0'?>
<ROWSET>
<ROW num="1">
<DT>2004-03-28</DT>
</ROW>
<ROW num="2">
<DT>2004-03-28</DT>
</ROW>
<ROW num="3">
<DT>2004-03-28</DT>
</ROW>
</ROWSET>

When you call DBMS_XMLQUERY.SETDATEFORMAT, you must supply the mask using the syntax defined by java.text.SimpleDateFormat.
You need to use "yyyy-MM-dd".
In your case, "yyyy-mm-dd", the lower case "mm" is the mask for minutes.

Date format problem in forms?

I basically want the following.. in a date text item.
1st Jan 2008
if DD is 1 character and
20th Jan 2008 if DD is 2 characters.
not
01st Jan 2008
20th Jan 2008
In SQL i can do this with date format 'FMddth Mon, YYYY'
In forms though this does not work.. any ideas?
Thanks

Looks like the pl/sql version used by Forms has a flaw in handling the fm and ddth parts of the date format together.
If it is a display-only column, you can change its datatype to char, remove the format mask, and instead, change the Column Name property to something like:
to_char(date_column,'fmddth Mon YYYY')

Date format Problem in forms&reports Services 10g

Hi Dears,
I Faced a problem during running reports ( i am using forms& Reports Services 10g), when i pass the parameters via parameter form to the report (built in forms10g Rel 2.0) its appearing in arabic like (25-يناير-2010) as my Date Formate is (DD-YYYY-MON) and NLS_LANG parameter is defined as Arabic_Saudi arabia.AR8MSWIN1256 so as a result report is not running due to unknown Date formate, how can i change the Same Date format (DD-YYYY-MON) to appear in english like (25-2010-JAN)
Thanks

You could specify the parameter as type VARCHAR2, explicitly cast it (maybe to DD.MM.YYYY) when you pass it from forms and cast it back in your query, like TO_DATE(:P_PARAM, 'DD.MM.YYYY')

Strange date format from XML

Hi There!
We have an XML that we read into an XMLtype - and at a time we want to display it in a normal date type....
Its formatted as this: '2007-02-20T09:30:47.0Z' (Zero 0) - I guess it means no timezone in some ISO 86* standard
select TO_date('2007-02-20T09:30:47.0Z','YYYY-MM-DD"T"HH24:MI:SS.??????') from dual;
I have trie to find a format for reading it ... do you have an idea?
regards
Mette

Sorry, forgot to say that some of the dates in the XML field is in this format
'2007-02-20T09:30:47+100 ...... (yyyy-mm-dd"T"hh:mi:ssstzhtzm)

Change date format in PO form

Hi,
Currently, the delivery date printed in PO form is in the format of mm/dd/yyyy.
If I will change the month format into text, say for example, FEB-07-2011, how can I make this happen?
Is there any other way to accomodate this other than change the print program/form?
Thanks!
Best Regards,
Armie

Hi,
Date format copy from setting which you have done in t.code: SU3 or SU01 in Date Format in Default tab,If you want you can change it according to your requirement.
Or as you need check your SMARTFORMS which assigned to your PO message type ( NACE) with which you print PO and see possible conversion as required by you with your ABAPer.

Independently configure date format for XML/JSON serialization

How do I configure the date format independently for each of my date fields?
For example, let's say I have a CustomerOrder class with more than 1 java.util.Date fields in it.
I need to be able to render like this:
<customerOrder>
<orderDate>2013-01-04T20:50:42.769Z</orderDate>
<user>Bob</lastUpdateUser>
<state>CO</state>
<estShipDate>2013-01-04</estShipDate>
</customerOrder>
So one of the dates may not care about the hh:mm:ss.
i.e. I cannot format every date the same way.
Any ideas?
This is my technology stack:
- Tomcat 7
- Jersey 1.16
- Enunciate 1.26.2
- Spring 3.1.2
- Hibernate 4.1.7
- JPA 2.0.3

Otis,
A "java.sql.Date" contains only a date, whereas a "java.sql.Timestamp" contains both date and time. So retrieve the data (from the database) as a "Timestamp" and not as a "Date".
Perhaps if you'd care to post the relevant part of your code and show what you are getting and what you want to get, I may be able to help you further.
Here's a small (uncompiled and untested) example:
Connection conn = // However you get it.
Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("select sysdate from dual");
if (rs.next()) {
Timestamp ts = rs.getTimestamp(1);
}Good Luck,
Avi.
