Define event to repeat on the last day of each month?

(I've searched the forum and can't find this question addressed)
I want to create a repeating event for the last day of each month. Is this possible?

Unfortunately Apple does not have an option available that allows you to add an event repeating on the last day of the month. An "OK" way around this would be to repeat on the 1st of every month and send a reminder a day earlier. I know this is less then perfect but the only option currently available. If you happen to find a 3rd party program that allows such integration please don't hesitate to mention it here as I have been looking for this sort of option for quite some time now!

How do I set a reminder for the last day of every month

Have I missed something? But how do you set a reminder for the last day of every month to recurr indefinatley in iOS6? Sorry if this is really simple but I just can't seem to work it out. Any help gratefully received.

Hey Mattye88 not sure if you have seen but actully you can do this, but for some reason you have to use Siri. If you bring up Siri and say "set a reminder ever 4 weeks from next wednesday to check the gas meter" it will set one and it will work just fine, I have reminders to water a Bonsai every three days and it works fine it just shows as custom repeat on the user interface. Alas it seems you can not use Siri to set one for the end of the month though which is why I am in this threed. Still hope it helps you to know how to sort this problem atleast.

How to get the last day of a month?

HI,
I want to know how to get the last day of a month.
In my JClient form, I tried to get it by using oracle.sql.Date method, that is:
lastday=oracle.sql.Date anydate.lastDayOfMonth();
But it does not work. The result is lastday=anydate.
Why?
Stephen

You can use the Calender class...
Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
and then something like...
c.add(c.MONTH, 1);
int dayOfMonth = c.get(Calender.MONTH);
c.add(c.DAY_OF_MONTH, - (dayOfMonth-1) );
other usefull functions are:
System.out.println(" YEAR : " + c.get(Calendar.YEAR));
System.out.println(" MONTH : " + c.get(Calendar.MONTH));
System.out.println(" DAY_OF_MONTH : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH));
System.out.println(" DAY_OF_WEEK : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK));
System.out.println(" DAY_OF_YEAR : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR));
System.out.println(" WEEK_OF_YEAR : " + c.get(Calendar.WEEK_OF_YEAR));
System.out.println(" WEEK_OF_MONTH : " + c.get(Calendar.WEEK_OF_MONTH));
System.out.println(" DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH));
System.out.println(" HOUR : " + c.get(Calendar.HOUR));
System.out.println(" AM_PM : " + c.get(Calendar.AM_PM));
System.out.println(" HOUR_OF_DAY (24-hour): " + c.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY));
System.out.println(" MINUTE : " + c.get(Calendar.MINUTE));
System.out.println(" SECOND : " + c.get(Calendar.SECOND));

Last day of each month in a year based on a Input date?

Hi all,
I have a request from a customer who wants to have a yearly report created in BEx Query Designer which starts in January up to December and they want to have a Month To Date (MDT) and Year to Date (YTD) calculation of a key figure. This report will only show one year at the time based on the date the user give as input at the Variable Screen.
This key figure should be calculated by using the last date of each month for input when performing the MTD and YTD calculation and summarizations.
Example:
January: 31.01.2008  Key Figure = 1000. MTD = 1000 and YTD = 1000
February: 29.02.2008  Key Figure = 2500. MTD = (2500-1000) 1500 and YTD = 2500
March: 31.03.2008  Key Figure = 6000. MTD =(6000-2500)=3500 and YTD = 6000
Etcu2026.
This means that I have to have a lot of hidden Key figures which gets restricted on the different month end dates and formulas to calculate the different MTD and YTD results for the months as the year progresses.
The way I have solved it now is that I have a Customer Exit which gives me the Last day of last year (Exp: 31.12.2007) based on input date and use a Offset on the last day of last year date to get the different last dates of each month.
Since we have a leap year (one extra day in February) this year, the offset to calculate the end month dates will be different for 2007 and next year (2009). This solution is not very flexible, and it will not give the correct MTD and YTD if the customer wants to go back to 2007 and off course next year (2009).
One solution is to create 12 Customer Exits that gives me the different month end dates (January-December), and also takes in account leap year for February for the different years. These Exits will be based on the Input date the Customers put in at the variable screen.
I would rather want to avoid making 12 new customer exits and want your advice and expertise to find out if this is possible in any other way (maybe with only 1 customer exit) to get the last date of each month based on an input date.
Thanks for all your advices on beforehand.

Hi,
Thanks for you replay and documentation, but it doesn't give me excatly the functionality I'm after. The only MTD calculation code the document provides is the calculation of the following functionality:
"Month to Date (MTD) u2013 From the 1st of month to u201CKey Dateu201D - for current year." This doesn't give the the functionality I want, which is to retrieve a given vaule for a Key Figure for the last dates of the months in a year to calculate MTD and YTD.
This way I have created the query is to have multiple hidden Key Figures that calculates the MTD and YTD.
In Columns in Query Designer it will look something like this:
Selection: MTD January--> Date = 31.01.2008, Key Figure (Always Show)
Selection: YTD January --> Date= 31.01.2008, Key Figure (Always Show)
Selection: MTD February --> Date= 29.02.2008, Key Figure (Always Hide)
Formula: MTD February --> MTD February - MTD January (Always Show)
Selection YTD February --> Date = 29.02.2008, Key Figure (Always Show)
And so on....
This is off course a simplified version, but it shows the core of the solution. What I want to achive here is that the dates used to get the Key Figures (last date of a month) is calculated as flexible as possible, so that the users can go back and forth in time without worrying about the leap year problem and so on. I have now used an offset from the last date of last year and this is good for all the normal years, but when it is a leap year the query will use wrong dates to get the key figure vaule for the last date of each month.
Any ideas on how to achieve this without creating 12 different Customer Exit variables (one for each end date of each month)?
Thanks

Why doesn't the Calendar allow one to schedule the last Friday of each month?

Why doesn't the Calendar allow for making repeating appts. like the 1st Saturday of each month or the last Friday of each month? This is such fundamental functionality. Virtually all other third-party calendar apps include this feature. I was very disappointed this wasn't addressed in iOS 5. Hopefully an Apple Support person sees this...

How do I find the start day of each month

Hi all,
Hope someone can give a a hand here I've to do a calender project for college and I'm not allowed to use any built in Java classes so fun all the way so far :-)
I've got one question that is bugging me at the moment. and that is how to find the start day for each month in a year and store them in an array.
I'm starting my week at Monday (0) and stopping at Sunday (6) and I do have a formula for discovering the first day in Jan of the given year its
((y-1900)*365 + (y-1901)/4)%7
I was just wondering how I could amend this to find the first day in Feb, March etc.
Any suggestions greatly accepted.
Thanks in advance.

newark maybe I didnt make clear exactly what I want to do.

The formula I have discovering the first day of Jan of a given year will give you 1 i.e. Tuesday
what I need to do is find out what number between 0 and 6 the start day of each other month of a given year is.
For example the 1st of Feb is a Friday which is 4 on the weekday map.
Your suggestion of 31%7 won't work for this, sorry more than likely my fault for not being clearer in what my requirements were.
Cheers for the help so far and yep your right not being able to use the built in classes is a pain :-)
Edited by: Irish-Student on 03-Mar-2008 20:01This doesn't really change much of my first suggestion. If you can already calculate the first day of the month of January for any given year, then there's no problem figuring out the other months. Say I want to know the first day April 1, 1978. You already know how to find January 1, 1978. So find that. Then find the number of days between January 1 and April 1 (remember to account for leap years). Once you have the number of days, you can figure out how many weeks and days that is, and thus what day of the week it is.

Date: Is it possible to get the last Friday of each month?

Hello all, I am trying to create a column of dates which are a specific day in each month, e.g. the last Friday of every month, or the first Monday of every month. Is this possible, and if so could you please guide me on how to?
Thanks
James

James,
My thought was that you would create an array of dates with this table and Copy/Paste Values it into the range where you need it.
What I did was build a table of controls, below, where I set the year and what day of the week you were interested in and the top table will compute the dates. I used direct entry for the year and a POP-UP menu for day of the week.
The 4th 'Friday' formula is: =IF(Controls :: $C>$C, $B+Controls :: $C-$C+21, $B+Controls :: $C-$C+28)
The Last 'Friday' formula is: =IF((G+7)>EOMONTH(B, 0), G, G+7)
The formula in the Header Row is: ="4th "& Controls :: $B , etc.
There is no reason you couldn't transpose the table to have your Last Fridays in a row rather than in a column. I don't think I noticed that requirement in your original post.
And, there's no reason to have a fancy control panel if you don't think you'll ever need to create another series of dates. Just substitute values for the references to the control table.

How to create appointment occurs last day of each month

Hi Preston,
I am trying to create a monthly recurring appointment occurs on last day of every month in .Net. E.g. start at May 31, 2010 end at May 31 2011 every month.
I specified the frequency as monthly, byMonthDay[0] = (sbyte)31. But this only generates the instances on those months contain the 31th day. My question is how to also create instances on 30th day for those months don't contain the 31th day.
Thanks,
John

The recurrence rule logic is patterned after the recurrence
logic in iCalendar (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2445.txt)
If you have questions, first look there. Then look at the
schema itself.
In the schema the definition of DayOfMonth will handle
negative numbers:
<xs:simpleType name="DayOfMonth">
<xs:restriction base="xs:byte">
<xs:minInclusive value="-31"/>
<xs:maxInclusive value="31"/>
</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>
<xs:complexType name="DayOfMonthList">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="day" type="tns:DayOfMonth" minOccurs="0"
maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
So, the last day of the month would be -1. The second
to last day would be -2 and so on.

I need an event to repeat on the 1st Thursday of every month; the only option I have is every 6th or every 8th day.

I would like to have a repeating event on the first and third Thursday of every month. I cannot make a repeating monthly event on the same day of the week.
Also, I keep getting an overlay on my Yahoo screen that says I must have logged out or closed another page and I need to log in when I haven't done that. Is that a Yahoo problem?

For your repeating even, I'm assuming this is your Yahoo calendar? that isn't a Firefox issue, I suggest you try to contact yahoo.
For the other issue, try the following:
Update to Firefox 15. Then, [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]]

Mdx query to get the last date of every month if the month is current month need current date..

i have a scenario where i need the data of last date of every month and if the month is current month need current date data...
is it possible using MDX...

Hi Shashi,
According to your description, you want to return the last day for each month except current month, right?
In MDX, we can use ClosingPeriod function to return the member that is the last sibling among the descendants of a specified member at a specified level, here is a sample query for you reference.
with member [measures].[a]
as
ClosingPeriod ([Date].[Calendar].[Date],[Date].[Calendar].currentmember).name
select {[measures].[a]} on 0,
[Date].[Calendar].[Month].members on 1
from
[Adventure Works]
And then use the IIF function to evaluate if the month is current month. Please refer to the links below.

How do I set a recurring event for the last day of the month on iphone 4s calendar?

I want to set a recurring event for the last day of every month - regardless of the date/number of days in the month. I'd prefer not to have to use an app to do this.

Hi,
You can do this using the custom repeat in iCal. You'll need two events to cover the second and fourth Mondays.
Create the event on the second Monday of the month. In Repeat select Custom... > Frequency: Monthly > On the: second Monday.
Do the same for the Fourth Monday.
Best wishes

Scheduling an Event to Repeat on the i'th week day of each month

Regular repeating, meetings generally fall on the something like the "second Tuesday of each month". This type if option is available on both my Palm devices and Google calendars. Is there a way to do this on the IPhone? It seems like a pretty basic scheduling option to be missing. Does Apple keep a list of enhancement requests and their status?

I know this may not be the way we all want it to work, but if you make your custom repeat on your computer and then sync to the phone, it will work fine. That is, if you make an event in outlook (I'm on a mac so I use iCal, but I'm pretty sure it works the same) and set the repeat to the 2nd Tuesday of each month, when you sync and then look at the event on your iphone, you'll see the repeat is set to "custom", and when you tap the edit button, you'll see that it says "second Tuesday of each month".
I agree this functionality should be in the iphone itself, as it can recognize the repeats, but at least at this point they can't be edited on the iphone itself but for the simple set of choices there.

Defining last day of previous month in ABAP

All,
I am a BW guy and hardly know ABAP. I have a requirement where I have to calculate last day of previous month and use it in the routines of the transformations.
I have decided to define the Last day of previous month in Start routine and then use the global variable in Transformations to calculate further.
The logic that i have used is outlined below.
         Define G_DATE in global declaration for further use in Transformations.
In the Routine section,
        Assign G_DATE to SY-DATUM
        G_DATE + 6(2) = '01' (Replace last to field of date with '01' to establish first day of the current month)
        G_DATE = G_DATAE - 1 (To get to last day of previous month)
My dilemma is to implement this in ABAP in Start routine of transformations. Please include the exact ABAP code that would be needed in Declarations and Routine section.
Thanks in advance.

Hi..,
Go with the function module: LAST_DAY_OF_MONTHS
So, Just determine the last month from the sy-datum and then use above function module and pick the last date of the month.
Thanks,
Naveen Inuganti.

How to get the last day according to fiscal period input in selection scree

Hello expert
how to get the last day of fiscal period input.
the fiscal period inculdes 1-16
when fiscal period is greater than 12, only calculate the last day of 12nd month
your solution will be apprecaited, FM existing?
thank you
Kevin

Hi,
when you give a particular date in any month
the following fm will give you the last date of that month
here you can give
R_FDATE-HIGH as 01 and month as the period you wnat and year for current year
concatenates '01' month year into r_fdate-high separated by '.'.
then it will give g_ltdt for that month and year which wil be the last date of that month
    CALL FUNCTION 'RP_LAST_DAY_OF_MONTHS'
      EXPORTING
        DAY_IN            = R_FDATE-HIGH
      IMPORTING
        LAST_DAY_OF_MONTH = G_LTDT
      EXCEPTIONS
        DAY_IN_NO_DATE    = 1
        OTHERS            = 2.
    IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
      MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
              WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
