Date Format (month in words, day and year in number)

Hi Experts,
Is there any standard format available in SAP as a data type for the following format in date i.e. 05 th June 2006 or June 05 2006.
Any format where the month should be in letters. If its there could you pls revert back ASAP.
Thanking you in advance.
Jasmine

The month in words datatype is FCLTX.
If you have the date field, you can convert to your required format.
data : out_date(20) type c.
DATA : ws_fcmnr TYPE fcmnr,
ws_month TYPE fcltx.
parameter date like sy-datum.
ws_fcmnr = date+4(2).
SELECT SINGLE ltx
INTO ws_month
FROM t247
WHERE mnr = ws_fcmnr
and spras = 'EN'.
concatenate ws_month date6(2) date0(4) into out_date separated by space.
write out_date.

Force 2 digit month, 2 digit days and 4 digit year.

I have input date format month/day/year.
The possible input may be like following:
1/1/2006, 1/12/2006,
10/1/2006, 10/12/2006.
in summay the 'day' may be 1 or 2 digit, the 'month' may be 1 or 2 digit.
How do I make them all 2 digit 'day', 2 digit 'month' and 4 digit year. My final goal is convert it to 'YYYYMMDD'.
Here is my code:
TYPES :BEGIN OF type_int_date,
            l_year(4)   TYPE c,
            l_month(2) TYPE c,
            l_days(2)   TYPE c,
          END OF type_int_date.
DATA:l_startdate    TYPE string,
     l_month        TYPE string,
     l_days         TYPE string,
     l_year(4)      TYPE c,
     lw_date        TYPE type_int_date,
     l_len TYPE i.
SPLIT l_startdate AT '/' INTO
          l_month
          l_days
          l_year.
    l_len = <b>strlen</b>(l_month).
    IF l_len = 1.
       CONCATENATE '0' l_month INTO lw_int_date-l_month.
    l_len = strlen(l_day).
    IF l_len = 1.
       CONCATENATE '0' l_days INTO lw_int_date-l_days.
    lw_int_date-l_year = l_year.
    zzstartdate = lw_int_date.
I have syntax error on the 'strlen'. The compiler do not understand the 'strlen'.
Please help.
Thanks,

Please implement my sample program above, run it? Any problems? If so, then I guess that you user date format is set as MM.DD.YYYY. Which in this case will not work for you. Neil has suggest that you translate the / to . This may work, again, if your user date format is MM.DD.YYYY.
report zrich_0001.
data: im_datum(10) type c value '1/1/2006'.
data: ex_datum type sy-datum.
<b>translate im_datum using '/.'.</b>
call function 'CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL'
     exporting
          date_external = im_datum
     importing
          date_internal = ex_datum.
write:/ ex_datum.

Wrong month displayed in day and week views

I recently noticed that whereas the current month is displayed correctly in Month view, in Day and Week view the date is displayed as in January. This has been the case in both February and now March.
I sync my iCal with my mobileme account and my iphone and these don't have the same problem.
I have removed my com.apple.iCal.plist file and rebooted, to no avail.
Any suggestions what else I can do?

Thank you so much Ferd II
I kick myself. Though too my mind it is not logical to look inside Language & Text for a problem with month names. I forgot that last month I changed the date format to yyyymmdd in order to make it more logical sorting things. I have now reverted to day of week, day of month, month, year, and everything seems fine.

Date Formats in Oracle Applications Forms and Oracle Self Service

Can someone tell me what determines the Date format that appears on Oracle Applications Forms and Oracle Self Service ?
*1.* In Oracle HRMS,all dates i see on the Forms are of the Format "MM/DD/YYYY" but my NLS Parameters are not in this format .I'm giving the results for the NLS parameters below.I thought the date formats are determined by the NLS format.Is there something else that determines the date format appearing on Oracle Applications Forms ?
NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS
NLS_DATE_FORMAT     :DD-MON-RR
NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE     :AMERICAN
NLS_LANGUAGE     :AMERICAN
NLS_TERRITORY     :AMERICA
NLS_INSTANCE_PARAMETERS
NLS_DATE_FORMAT     :DD-MON-RR
NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE     :
NLS_LANGUAGE     :american
NLS_TERRITORY     :america
NLS_SESSION_PARAMETERS
NLS_DATE_FORMAT     :DD-MON-RR
NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE     :
NLS_LANGUAGE     :american
NLS_TERRITORY     :america
*2* What about the profile option : ICX_DATE_FORMAT_MASK ? Does it determine the Date Format for Self Service alone or does it impact the date format appearing on Oracle Applications Forms and the actual database also ?
*3* If I use a to_date function in ,say, a pl/sql function that i code for some custom requirements,what will be the output of the date format ? Does it take the format given in NLS paramaters or is it determined by anything else?
Thanks in advance...

Hi,
Thanks for your reply ,but I'm still confused ..
Here are the profile options I'm seeing for one of my instance :
ICX: Date format mask - 12/31/1999
ICX: Date language - American English
ICX: Language - American English
ICX: NLS Sort - BINARY
ICX: Territory - United States
ICX: Numeric characters - NULL
NLS parameters are given in my original email.
In Self Service applications(OAF) ,the date format is appearing in "mm/dd/yyyy" format but when i login to Forms based applications ,I see the date format as "dd-mon-yyyy".What determines this date format ?
How can i make the date format to always return one format everywhere ,be it Self Service (OAF) or Oracle Forms ?
I'm getting date format related errors for my code because of default date formats changing intermittently when i log into Self Service.I want to know if there is anyway to prevent this from happening?
Thanks in advance.

How to get the data for last 3rd business day and also include saturday and sunday if its a wednesday?

Hi All,
I have a simple query which is below:-
Declare @reportdate date
set @reportdate= (DATEADD(dd,-5,getdate()))
select * from dbo.Table
where date IN (@reportdate)
I need this query to pull the data for the last 3rd business day .So lets say today is monday then i need the data for last week wednesday which is 3 business days back from monday, if today is a tuesday it would be for last thursday ( as 3 business days for
tuesday would be thursday). But if today is wednesday then i need to be last 3rd business day which is last friday and i also need to get the data for saturday and sunday.
Can someone please help me how cani change my filter to do this?
Please let me know if i am still unclear.
Thanks

Hi SqlDev12,
Based on my understanding on your requirement, you can reference the below sample.
CREATE TABLE BusinessTable
Bdate DATE,
Wd VARCHAR(10)
;WITH Cte(DT,WD) AS
SELECT CAST('20150401' AS DATE),DATENAME(WEEKDAY,CAST('20150401' AS DATE))
UNION ALL
SELECT DATEADD(DAY,1,DT),DATENAME(WEEKDAY,DATEADD(DAY,1,DT)) FROM Cte
WHERE DT<GETDATE()
INSERT INTO BusinessTable SELECT * FROM Cte
SELECT * FROM BusinessTable
SET DATEFIRST 7 -- Set Sunday as the first day of a week
DECLARE @givenDay DATE ='20150415' --Wednesday
SELECT * FROM BusinessTable
WHERE Bdate BETWEEN
--For Monday and Sunday, select last wednesday
(CASE WHEN DATEPART(WEEKDAY,@givenDay) IN(1,2) THEN DATEADD(DAY,2,DATEADD(WEEK,DATEDIFF(WEEK,0,@givenDay)-1,0))
--For Tuesday and Wednesday, last week's Thursday and Friday
WHEN DATEPART(WEEKDAY,@givenDay) IN(3,4) THEN DATEADD(DAY,-5,@givenDay)
--For Thursday and Friday, current week's Monday and Tuesday
WHEN DATEPART(WEEKDAY,@givenDay) IN(5,6) THEN DATEADD(DAY,-3,@givenDay)
--For Saturday, current week's Wednesday
ELSE DATEADD(DAY,2,DATEADD(WEEK,DATEDIFF(WEEK,0,@givenDay),0)) END)
AND
(CASE WHEN DATEPART(WEEKDAY,@givenDay) IN(1,2) THEN DATEADD(DAY,2,DATEADD(WEEK,DATEDIFF(WEEK,0,@givenDay)-1,0))
WHEN DATEPART(WEEKDAY,@givenDay) IN(3) THEN DATEADD(DAY,-5,@givenDay)
WHEN DATEPART(WEEKDAY,@givenDay) IN(4) THEN DATEADD(DAY,-3,@givenDay)
WHEN DATEPART(WEEKDAY,@givenDay) IN(5,6) THEN DATEADD(DAY,-3,@givenDay)
ELSE DATEADD(DAY,2,DATEADD(WEEK,DATEDIFF(WEEK,0,@givenDay),0)) END)
DROP TABLE BusinessTable

ICal to do list due date shows only day and year

Trying to set up a few to do items for the future, I checked the "due date" box and it's showing today's date as 22/2013 as oppose to "01/22/2013". While I can change the "22" to a future day, I don't have the option to modify the month because it's not shown. Any clues?
Thanks.

Nevermind. There's a setting in the preferences for how soon after an event is completed that it is removed from the visible list.

Day/Month appearing as Day of Year/Month

When I look at dates displayed for Time Machine (right hand date bar) I notice they display as Wednesday, 132 May 2010 then Wednesday, 139 May 2010 etc. Is there a way to get back to the actual day/month/year format I specify for an Australian machine? I have noticed similar date displays within Software Update and iSync.

Thanks, the Region under Language and Text>Formats was listed as Custom. I changed it to Australia and this had rectified the problem when I Restarted and checked Time Machine.

Current date as deafult for Calender Day and user entry

Hello All,
There is a select option for Calender Day for a BW query.
This Calender Day should have a default as Current Date and User entry is also possible.
I have used a Customer exit and written the following code under i_step = 1
data: v_currdt like sy-datum.
clear: v_currdt, vfl_range.
         if i_step = 1.
          vfl_range-sign = 'I'.
          vfl_range-opt = 'EQ'.
          v_currdt = sy-datum.
          vfl_range-low = v_currdt.
          append vfl_range to e_t_range.
         endif.
Please inform if this code is incorrect, because I am not able to see the date at all.
Cheers,
KP

Hi
Check with this code!
Implemented for the same function as you require.-
if i_step = 1.
case i_vname.
    WHEN 'ZZZZZZ'.
      IF i_step = 1.
        REFRESH e_t_range.
        CLEAR l_s_range.
        l_date1 = sy-datum.
        L_S_RANGE-LOW = l_date1.
        L_S_RANGE-SIGN = 'I'.
        L_S_RANGE-OPT = 'EQ'.
        APPEND L_S_RANGE TO E_T_RANGE.
      endif.
endcase.
endif.

prathap

Hello Pratap,
Please check the function module 'VELO03_WEEK_OR_MONTH_TO_DATE'.
I also wrote a demo program to test it.
PARAMETER: p_week TYPE vlc_week DEFAULT '01',
           p_gjahr TYPE gjahr.
DATA: v_dat1 TYPE sy-datum, "Start Date
      v_dat2 TYPE sy-datum. "End Daye
CALL FUNCTION 'VELO03_WEEK_OR_MONTH_TO_DATE'
EXPORTING
   week_iv             = p_week
    year_iv             = p_gjahr
IMPORTING
   date_ev             = v_dat1
EXCEPTIONS
   week_invalid        = 1
   month_invalid       = 2
   OTHERS              = 3.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
          WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
ENDIF.
v_dat2 = v_dat1 + 5. "Assuming Saturday is the last day
WRITE: v_dat1, / v_dat2.
Hope this helps. Award points if helpful.
Thanks & Regards,
Suhas.
PS: You can also use the FM 'WEEK_GET_FIRST_DAY'.

Oracle Dates (calendar months or 30-day months)

hi guys,
how would we distinguish if oracle will pick up calendar months or a specific 30-day months?
is add_months(sysdate, n) will use n calendar months (either it will hit a 30-day, 31-day or 28-day month) or a specific 30-day month calculation?
thanks

thanks for all the responses! iam really having some confusions re oracle dates.
last thing, if i add_months for today's daye, 11/21/2007 what would i get here:
add_months(sysdate, 3)
a. Feb 21st -- the date at the beginning of the fourth calendar month from Nov 21
b. Feb 20th -- the date at the end of the third calendar month from Nov 21
c. Feb 18th -- the date that is 90 days after Nov 21
thanks again

ICal events are missing Day and Month in date

Hello, Sorry if this has been addressed elsewhere - this is such a weird fault I was not sure how to search for it.
My iCal events are missing the Day and Month in their start and end dates - it just shows a 4 digit year which can only be edited as a 4 digit number. All my events are in their correct places but I am unable to create new multiday events.
This applies to old and new events alike. I tried trashing my iCal prefs file but it made no difference.
Anyone any ideas? I am using iCal 3.0.8 on Leopard 10.5.8.
Thanks in advance.

Worked it out - I was using a custom date format to give me day and date in the menu bar - reverting to one of the standard built in 'British' works - but then I lose my day in the menu bar....

Day and Month missing

Hi
When I edit an event in iCal i can only see the year and time in the from and to fields or if I try and set a repeating event to a date. Is there a way to get them to show again.
