Date Format problem...

Hi users,
Forte version : 2.e.2 and ForteWebSDK
Datacase : Oracle
We have a problem with a simple HTML text field which acccepts
a date. When we try to update the record with some date, the following
exception occurs:
24-Jun-1998 04:32:28 : XV01086 : Execute failed for SQL statement in
project Rap
tServices, class RaptSqlMethods, method updateActivity, methodId 104,
line 51, e
rror from database is:
ORA-01830: date format picture ends before converting entire input
string
The Oracle manual says that the above exception occurs when there are
some extra characters on that field, which is not the case. In fact,
we raise our own exception for the cases like : o1-Apr-1997,
01-apr-97 etc. The correct format is 01-apr-1998.
Same date soemtimes is added to the database successfully. Waht I mean
to say that the exception deos not occur consistently.
We just conevert the String taken from the HTML field into a Forte
DateTimeData Object and send it to database. May be, the conversion
part is causing the problem. But, once again the problem is not
consistent.
Any ideas in this will be appreciated.
Thanx in advance

We had the same problem when our application first went live. The
default date format for our Oracle database is 'dd-mmm-yy' without the
time component. The default format for datatype DateTimeData is
'dd-mmm-yyyy hh:mm:ss'. Since we did not want to change the default date
format for the Database, we included in our service partitions an Alter
Session statement to change the NLS_Date_format attribute in Oracle to
conform to the Forte DateTimeData format. It worked.

Subject: Re: Date Format problem...
I was having the same problem a few weeks back when I would
read/write
dates to Oracle. I was using objects of type DateTimeData and I would
occasionally get errors like you said you were. I found discovered my
problem. Sometimes I would process a null date and would get an error.
So to
resolve this issue, I simply changes my objects of type DateTimeData to
type
DateTimeNullable. This enabled my Forte Application to handle regular
dates
as well as null dates. I have not gotten any oracle errors since then
with
regards to dates. Hope this helps.

  • Data format problem

    Hello All
    Can anyone help me to solve this data format problem? On the top of my program, I have declare the two variables "purchasePrice" and "purchaseAmount" as double. I dont know why, the compiler still think I didnt initialize this two variables? I have printed the error message below the code.
    Thanks for your help : )
    Jen
    =============================================================================
    double purchasePrice, purchaseAmount, GPS, total_gain, amount;
    //Find the purchase stock price
         rs = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT Price FROM PORTFOLIO WHERE Username = '"+ username+"' AND Symbol = '"+strsymbol+"'");
         while (rs.next()){
              purchasePrice = rs.getDouble("Price");
    //Calculate the amount of Gain Per Share
    GPS = intask - purchasePrice;
    //Find the purchase stock amount
    rs = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT Amount FROM PORTFOLIO WHERE Username = '"+ username+"' AND Symbol = '"+strsymbol+"'");
         while (rs.next()){
              purchaseAmount = rs.getDouble("Amount");
    //Calculate the amount of Total Gain
    total_gain = amount - purchaseAmount;
    =============================================================================
    Error message:
    variable purchasePrice might not have been initialized
    [javac] GPS = intask - purchasePrice;
    [javac] ^
    variable purchaseAmount might not have been initialized
    [javac] total_gain = amount - purchaseAmount;
    [javac] ^
    [javac] 2 errors

    Instance and class variables are automatically initialized to their default values if they are not initialized explicitly, but local variables are not. They have to be initialized explicitly before they can be referenced.
    In your code:
        while (rs.next()){
            purchasePrice = rs.getDouble("Price");
        ...purchasePrice is initialized only if rs.next() returns true. purchaseAmount has the same problem. To avoid this problem, you could declare them by:
    double purchasePrice = 0;
    double purchaseAmount = 0;

  • XML Publisher to Excel Report : Date format problem

    Hi,
    I am trying to create an Excel report with XML Publisher. I have an issue with the Date Fomatting.
    In the XML template, I have set the "Date" column in date format. But the excel output report "Date" column returns as "General text" (string) and it is sorted as text, not as date.
    Can anyone please help me out?
    Thanks!!!

    Hi,
    Did this post solve your problem? I have the same issue that I need to solve.
    I have an xsl-fo template with dates in it.
    The dates are in english.
    My excel is setup to use danish.
    When I export to excel it knows the month jan, feb, mar, apr, ... which are the same in danish and english.
    But months where it differs like may (danish maj) the cell is a general text instead of date.
    Is there anyway you can set/transform the date in the xsl-fo template so it does not care about the language in excel?
    Thank you in advance.

  • Quicken 2007 date format problem in Mavericks

    Objective: Get date format in dd/mm/yyyy format in Quicken 2007 (Lion compatible version).
    Current OS: Mavericks 10.9.4
    Hardware: Retina MacBook Pro & iMac 27" 3.2Ghz
    Problem:
    On my rMBP with Mavericks 10.9.4, I’m able to get Quicken 2007 data in dd/mm/yyyy format, as desired.
    On my new iMac (late 2013) with 10.9.4, Quicken recognises the System date formats dd/mm/yyyy (setting up a new register shows System date format) but the registers and data are all in m/d/yy.
    Quicken prefs are set to Canadian, so date formats should automatically be in dd/mm/yyyy, but aren't.
    The Quicken data file is identical on both Macs. The original file goes back to 1991, and has been through all Mac OS iterations since then.
    Pre-Lion, I remember that the workaround was to set the Language & Region to something (English / US, don’t remember which) and then change date formats. Anyway, the dd/mm/yyyy stuck, through Lion and Mavericks on my rMBP, but is causing a problem in the iMac.
    My guess is that Quicken is unable to / blocked out from accessing System date formats in Mavericks 10.9.4.
    Wondering if there’s some way to make Quicken access the Mavericks System date format, and stick to it?
    Possible approach: If some expert in these forums knows how Mavericks works under the hood, how it allows other apps access to System Prefs like date formats etc., perhaps a script or Terminal command could force Quicken 2007 to recognise and accept date formats from System Prefs (Language & Regional settings).
    I'd really appreciate the help; needless to say, the Quicken data is vital to my work.

  • 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')

  • Date Format problem in ABAP Proxy

    Hi All,
    We have a Inbound ABAP proxy which recieves data from XI.
    We use a date field in that which is defined as DATS datatype.
    When we trigger the interface from XI with date in format YYYYMMDD, we are getting an exception.
    when the date is sent in format YYYY-MM-DD, the interface is run successfuly.
    when we test the interface in SPROXY transaction the date is displayed in YYYY-MM-DD format.
    does it have anything to do with the defenition of the date format in XI?
    I want to know whether DATS format in XI is different from ABAP?
    should the date that is sent from XI be in YYYY-MM-DD format all the time.
    Kindly suggest a solution for the date problem when it is passed from XI to ABAP proxy

    Hi Uday,
    Check the pattern used in XI/PI for the date definition.
    If it's set to:
         pattern="[0-9]-[0-9]-[0-9]"
    Then it will enforce the pattern. You could try changing the pattern in XI to exclude the hyphen then you have a normal DATS format.

  • InputDate Column Filter Date Format Problem

    Hi,
    I have an af:table with filterable columns and some of these columns are based on Timestamp VO attributes.
    When I enter a date filter - either manually or from the associated date picker, the filter is applied correctly using a date format of dd/MM/yyyy.
    However, when the table is subsequently refreshed, the filter value is still present but has been re-formatted to "yyyy-MM-dd hh:mi:ss" format (default format for a Timestamp datatype?). The an error appears in the column filter component - "Error: The date is not in the correct format".
    If I want to retain the filter value across queries, how can this be achieved?
    My table column is defined as follows:
    <af:column sortProperty="#{bindings.ViewDataVO1.hints.LastReadingDate.name}"
                                                   filterable="true" sortable="true"
                                                   headerText="#{bindings.ViewDataVO1.hints.LastReadingDate.label}"
                                                   id="c59"
                                                   rendered='#{bindings.ViewDataVO1.hints.LastReadingDate.displayHint != "Hide"}'
                                                   displayIndex="#{bindings.ViewDataVO1.hints.LastReadingDate.displayHeight}">
                                            <f:facet name="filter">
                                                <af:inputDate value="#{vs.filterCriteria.LastReadingDate}" id="id4">
                                                    <af:convertDateTime
                                                                        pattern="#{bindings.ViewDataVO1.hints.LastReadingDate.format}"/>
                                                </af:inputDate>
                                            </f:facet>
                                            <af:outputText value="#{row.LastReadingDate}" id="ot59">
                                                <af:convertDateTime pattern="#{bindings.ViewDataVO1.hints.LastReadingDate.format}"/>
                                            </af:outputText>
                                        </af:column>I've tried messing with the properties of the af:convertDateTime component, but I'm thinking the problem is in the population of the filter facet inputDate with the vs.filterCriteria.LastReadingDate value. This does not appear to be re-formatted for display - but I don't know how to manipulate this value...
    Or is there a better way? This seems more complicated than it should be...?
    By the way, I am using JDeveloper 11.1.2.1.0 for my development.
    Thanks.

    Does it work fine if you change the pattern for convertDateTime?
    I.e
    change
    <f:facet name="filter">
                                                <af:inputDate value="#{vs.filterCriteria.LastReadingDate}" id="id4">
                                                    <af:convertDateTime
                                                                        pattern="#{bindings.ViewDataVO1.hints.LastReadingDate.format}"/>
                                                </af:inputDate>
                                            </f:facet>to
    <f:facet name="filter">
                                                <af:inputDate value="#{vs.filterCriteria.LastReadingDate}" id="id4">
                                                    <af:convertDateTime
                                                                        pattern="dd/MM/yyyy"/>
                                                </af:inputDate>

  • Web service date format problem

    Hi, I am using a web service from another R/3 server. Its date format is like this..
    - <xsd:simpleType name="date">
    - <xsd:restriction base="xsd:string">
      <xsd:maxLength value="10" />
      <xsd:pattern value="\d\d\d\d-\d\d-\d\d" />
      </xsd:restriction>
    when I created a Proxy class, the date field  length is 8.
    I write my code and tryed execution. Its not giving any result and no exceptions also.
    I think the problem is with Date field..
    Suggest me how to solve this problem.
    Regards,
    Dhanunjaya Reddy

    Hi Dhanunjaya,
    If you are calling web service from your code, then it is executing like this->
    Your Code--> Proxy---> Already existing web service
    You are making  a call to proxy, not to web service directly.
    And in proxy it is defined as type D( with length 8) which is equivalent to YYYYMMDD.
    So try passing the value  YYYYMMDD(eg 20070505) from your code.
    Regards,

  • Date format problem in excel format

    Hi,
    I am uploading the date field  from excel to program.
    My problem is in date format.
    I am gettting the date format in ddmmyyyy if it is 01012006 then my excel sheet contains the date as 1012006 i.e '0' initial zero is truncated in the excel sheet .
    Now how can i use this date in my program i.e i have to convert into date as per program requirements like dd.mm.yyyy  .How can i convert.
    Thanks and regards,
    shyla

    Hi Shyla,
    if the provided excel sheet contains date in format "20122006" the field is considered as a number format.
    In this case you can do the following select the whole column and go to format/cells. Choose the "custom" category on the Number tab and
    enter zeros in eight digits, i.e. 00000000 under "Type:".
    This should solve your problem before uploading the data into SAP.

  • Date Format problem in a Spanish OS?

    Hi Experts,
    I have been stucked with this weird problem I am experiencing right now. I am able to process the date formats using SBO 2007A PL 37 and an English OS (XP, Vista) with no problem. But when we test the same application on a Spanish version of XP, I am getting an invalid date format.
    Btw, in an English OS I can process all sbo date formats (mm/dd/ccyy, mm/dd/yy, dd/mm/yy, dd/mm/ccyy, ccyy/mm/dd, dd/month/yyyy). Is there anything else that I need to check somewhere?

  • CLIENT_OLE2 date formatting problem while reading from Excel

    I have installed webutil package and tested that everything works by running webutil_demo as well as WU_TEST_106 form. Then I had implemented reading from Excel sp. sheet using Oracle note 813535.1 (This note has OLE2 code sample on how to read an Excel file). Everything fine till now. The problem started when I have a date fiield to read from Excel. The field where the value is going to has format mask of 'DD-MM-RRRR'. When the date is displayed in the form, it shows '01-AUG-0009' instead of '01-AUG-2009'. I tried changing the date format to different formats in Excel but no go. I found one blog which stated that treat the date as number and use e.g. "cell_date_value:=to_date('01/01/1900','DD/MM/YYYY')+client_OLE2.get_num_property(cel,,'Value')+2" but it too did not change the display. Then I tried debugging and stepping through the code..the only thing I noticed that OLE2 function displayed the date with 2 digit year as 09 and when the code completed execution, the date went back to '01-AUG-0009'. Casting with 4 digit year at every step in the code is not helping to change final date display correctly. Any idea?!!!

    Hi,
    While reading the date column from excel, try using
         m_col_val := OLE2.get_char_property(Workcell,'Text');
    Instead of
         m_col_val := OLE2.get_char_property(Workcell,'Value');
    I think you problem will be solved...
    hello...i meant client_OLE2

  • CUF and date format problem

    Hi experts!
    I ve created a CUF with "DATS" format on CI_BBP_ITEM structure.
    My problem is that CUF is displaying in ITS with YYYYMMDD format.
    How can I get an  ITS display depending of user date format attributes?
    (ex : DD.MM.YYYY)
    Thanks a lot for your help.
    P.

    Hi Pierre,
    For the CUF field create a new domain in SE11 and set the conversion routine for that domain. Choose a conversion routine that converts it depending on the user date format attribute.
    Then create the cuf field from this domain and add it to the CI_BBP_ITEM structure.
    Or you can go to the transaction SU3 for that particular user. Go to Defaults Tab and change the date format to DD.MM.YY. Save the changes. Try to login again and check the web whether the date is diaplayed in DD.MM.YY format.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,
    Pradeep.
