ESS: Change First Day of Week in Date Navigator

G'day everyone,
We are on NW2004S, i.e. ECC6 + EP7 + ESS 1.0. I'm having a hard time getting the Date Navigator, i.e. the value help for date fields in ESS, to use Monday rather than Sunday as first day of the week.
I have managed to customise the Team Calendar (and the other calendars in ESS) to start on Monday rather than Sunday by changing the FirstDayOfWeek property of the calendar element using <Ctrl>-right-mouse-click in Portal Content administration, so that displays ok now.
However, trying to do the same for the date navigator, i.e. doing a <Ctrl>-right-mouse-click just makes the date navigator disappear (actually it happens the moment I press the <Ctrl> key).
Am I doing something wrong here? Is there any other way to customise the FirstDayOfWeek property of the Date Navigator of WebDynpro for JAVA iViews in EP7?
Thanks a lot for your help and best regards!
Andree

'm been looking around and trying to find out about the function
"firstDayOfWeek", but I now finally found out it is much easier than that.
Solution:
Find the CssResources_xx.properties file (where xx is the language you
want to change for) in the
tomcat\4\webapps\gw\WEB-INF\classes\com\novell\webaccess\templates\css
directory.
Look for Calendar.Week.startDay=1 and change that to 2 for Monday. Do
this for all language properties files you need.

Changing first day of week in Calendar help

Hi,
I want to change the first day of week from Monday to Sunday in Webdynpro ABAP screen's default calendar help. I implemented BADI CALENDAR_DEFINITION to change the first day of week, it worked for SAP GUI calendar help but not working for WebDynpro ABAP screen.
Thanks,
Alok

Hi,
Try using the data type TVDIR-GENDATE for date field. It will populate serach help Calendar and it should trigger the BADI from web dynpro also.
Refer SAP Help. It is pointing to the same BADI.

First Day of Week in Data Entry Profile

Does anyone know if there is a standard SAP RFC i can use in my Web Dynpro application to get the First Day of Week entry in a user's Data Entry Profile?
Thanks,
-Kevin

Hello Kevin,
Function Module returns the System Date from that SAP System(R/3). I have checked this BAPI with '200743 - current week' GET_WEEK_INFO_BASED_ON_DATE, it returns proper data like Start Date and End Date.
I Assume, you are using this in your Java WD. You can write your own function for this. This will return the day of the week.
Calendar xmas = new GregorianCalendar(2007, Calendar.SEPTEMBER, 23);
int dayOfWeek = xmas.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("Day : "+dayOfWeek);
Note : - week starts with 0 . 0 - Monday 6 -Saturday.

Date/locale problems; first day of week / browser language

Hi,
I've been trying to create an event calendar PL/SQL portlet. My problem is that it reacts to browser language or something, so it goes all screwy when viewed with browsers in another language.
How can I force my portlet to be finnish and finnish ONLY. I DO NOT want it to change (first day of the week monday or sunday) depending on what browser the user is using. I have tried to use the third parameter to to_char(p_date, 'dd.mm.yyyy','NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE = Finnish') in all places but it has no effect. Database locale is correct ( I think, I'm not the admin) but still it happens. Chrome, Firefox, IE show different stuff depending on the browser language.
I'll admit it is not the most elegant coding ever (if it were I would have taken this into account and dealt with it!) but is there any way to just force my dates and date variabes to be finnish, period.

Got it.
For public sessions, Portal will indeed investigate the browser language. Pending on the browser language, Portal can display in specific languages. Only when users login and set a language explicitly, will we maintain the language setting, unless the user switches browsers again.
The Portal DAD settings will indeed overwrite your system wide setting of NLS_TERRITORY. The dads.conf will have something like AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8. If you want to overrule this in your portlet, you need to find a way of overruling the NLS_TERRITORY in the session. This can be done with dbms_session.set_nls('nls_territory','FINLAND');
e.g. for my previous example :
declare
date1 varchar2(2000);
date2 varchar2(2000);
date3 varchar2(2000);
begin
select to_char(sysdate,'Dy DD-Mon-YYYY') today into date1 from dual ;
select to_char(sysdate+ (1-to_char(sysdate,'D')),'Dy DD-Mon-YYYY') into date2 from dual ;
select to_char(sysdate+ (7-to_char(sysdate,'D')),'Dy DD-Mon-YYYY') into date3 from dual ;
htp.p('Territory set to AMERICAN');
htp.hr;
htp.p('Today : '||date1);
htp.br;
htp.p('First day of the week : '||date2);
htp.br;
htp.p('Last day of the week : '||date3);
htp.br;
htp.p('Territory set to FINLAND');
htp.hr ;
dbms_session.set_nls('nls_territory','FINLAND');
select to_char(sysdate,'Dy DD-Mon-YYYY') today into date1 from dual ;
select to_char(sysdate+ (1-to_char(sysdate,'D')),'Dy DD-Mon-YYYY') into date2 from dual ;
select to_char(sysdate+ (7-to_char(sysdate,'D')),'Dy DD-Mon-YYYY') into date3 from dual ;
htp.hr;
htp.p('Today : '||date1);
htp.br;
htp.p('First day of the week : '||date2);
htp.br;
htp.p('Last day of the week : '||date3);
end;

Deriving first day of week ww in year yyyy

I need to be able to display the first day of a particular week in addition to the 'week-of-year' and year; for example:
select to_char("ServiceDate",'yyyy-ww') as "Year/Week", sum("Points") as "Points"
from my_table
group by to_char("ServiceDate",'yyyy-ww')
order by to_char("ServiceDate",'yyyy-ww')will give me the following:
Year/Week     Points
2008-33            1
2008-35            1
2008-42            4
2008-43            2
2009-01            1
...and so forth. What I would like to add to the dataset is the actual day that is the first day of the week for that Week/Year. For example, the first row would look like this:
Year/Week     1st day of week     Points
2008-33          08-AUG-2008*         1*Or whatever the first day of week 33 of year 2008 is (assuming 'first day of week' is a Sunday, for my purposes).
My brain is on 'dim' right now; any and all assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Carl

select to_char(trunc("ServiceDate",'ww'),'yyyy-ww') as "Year/Week",
        to_char(trunc("ServiceDate",'ww'),'DD-MON-YYYY') "Week Start Date",
        sum("Points") as "Points"
from my_table
group by trunc("ServiceDate",'ww')
order by trunc("ServiceDate",'ww')

Calendar.app not showing First Day of Week selected in iCal

I have selected Monday as the first day of the week in iCal. After syncing, Calendar.app on my iPhone 4 does not show Monday as first day of week. My original iPhone 2G (3.1.3, jailbroken) does show the correct start day, Monday.)
I do not need assistance with my iPhone 2G. I need a solution for my iPhone 4.
How do I get my iPhone 4 to be in sync with my other calendars?

That's a real pain. I'm in Australia and the regional settings have Monday as the first week, which throws me out because all my calendars and even settings in iCal have Sunday as the first day of the week (which is what it's supposed to be). To get what I want, I have to set my country as New Zealand, and this messes up my phone number formats (closest to Australia than any of the others that start the week correctly though). It should be an option in the settings!

Change first day of the week from Monday to Sunday(0CALWEEK)

Hello!
We have a report that display the data at a calendar week level. The start of the week currently show as Monday( retreived from FM - WEEK_GET_FIRST_DAY).
Is there a global setting in source system to change the start day of the week from Monday to Sunday? I can always make this change in the transformation but would like to know if there is a global option to make this change so the rest of the reports display the same.
Thanks
Sirisha

You can check this SAP Note 624627 - Sunday first day of the week also a working day (Collective)

Date Breakup with Monday First Day of Week for Fortnight

Post Author: Guggu
CA Forum: Formula
Hi,
I am using a cross tab and I am trying to break up the data by the reporting periods we use, which is 2 weeks and is from Monday of Week 1 to Sunday of week 2.
I use the GROUP OPTIONS in Crystal report XI and tell it ot show FOR EACH TWO WEEKS but shows the dates with SUNDAY the first day of the week.
I had some BASIC SYNTAX which used to work in v8.5 and some times works for XI but not this time, so i would like to know if there is a better way to work this out as all my reports need to be done this way.
The BASIC SYNTAX i had was:
Dim ew1 As Date Dim rosterdate As Date Dim i As Number Dim fortnight As Date rosterdate = cdate({?StartDate}) + 70 ew1 = cdate({?StartDate}) ew1 = ew1 + 13 For i = 1 To 10
If rosterdate <= ew1 Then fortnight = ew1 formula = fortnight Exit For End If
ew1 = ew1 + 14Next i
But this is not working anymore.
Can someone please help.
Kindest Regards,
George

I just realized that the .../CatalystScripts/Java_DatePicker.js was modified on April 1st, but not by me. Did you do that?
The weekdays were sorted by Monday to Sunday, but the number of the days were not right. So today it showed Tuesday the 6th of April (of course it should be Monday).
My client just contacted me, that they have a mess with the reservations, people did reservations with the wrong date
I already changed it to the previous version. I think, I will implement a jQuery-datepicker, the BC datepicker is not flexibel enough.
