Getting Date and Time into a single field

Hi,
I am loading from a flat file which has field Start time which comes in the format of MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM:SS ( Hour: Minute: Second). How can i bring this and store this in BW as one single field. Even in the source it is a single field.
I would also need to use this info object as a key in my ODS
Please advise,
Thanks
Rashmi.

You should user an infoObject/field for tyoe CHAR, length 24. Once you read this, in transfer rules, write an ABAP Code to seperate Data, time and AM, PM. Once you read all the characters from your source, its very simple ABAP to seperate them in Transfer Rules.

Combining Date and Time into 1 Field

Post Author: Marc Vaccarino
CA Forum: Formula
Hi,
I'm trying to write a formula to combine 2 fields (date and time) into one. I would like it to look like this.
2/12/2007 + 12:00pm = 2/12/2007 12:00pm
Thanks,

Thanks that worked but my problem is currently the date field I'm using has a date and time (12/12/2007 12:00am) and the time field has it as well (12/12/2007 1:45am). I've been going into crystal and clicked on format field and just showing the date and in the time field, just showing time. Then I would extract the report to excel then run another formula to get it to work. I'm looking to automate it a little. Any ideas??

Inserting Date and Time into a date field

Okay I am a bit of a Oracle newbie. I am trying to insert the following date and time into a date field and I don't know how to format the second part of the to_Date() function.
Date/Time: 5/29/2003 7:58:45 PM
Thanks,
Branden

I believe you would want
to_date( '5/29/2003 7:58:45 PM', 'MM/DD/YYYY HH:MI:SS AM' )
Note that tahiti.oracle.com has all of Oracle's documentation, including the very useful SQL & PL/SQL reference manuals, available for free.

Get date AND time to show in the menu bar

What is that technique to get date AND time to show in the menu bar please?

Install iStat Menu
System Preferences -> iStat Menus -> Date & Time
\[X] Show Date & Time
Format .... \[Edit]
(*) Custom (drag tokens to build a custom format)
Drag a light blue token into the edit line below the token selections. If you want a space a colon a dash, etc... just type that character(s) before after draging a token into place.
I created: 9:35 PM Sat 1-Aug-2009
You can create anything you like in any order you like.
The other alternative (if you happen to be a fan of the Unix strftime() function) would be to use the % formatting characters in the Expert time format expression box. Use the Terminal "man strftime" to find out all the available % formatting codes.
But I think the Custom Drag & Drop section is the easiest to use.
However, if this doesn't work for you, then I guess it is just a case of "Your Mileage May Vary".

How do I get date and time component from a DATE object?

Hi All,
I need to get date and time separately from a DATE object, does

Getting user name, date and time into 1 field

Hi All,
I have to add a new field in a customising include of AUFK table. This field should have user name, date and time. How do I store all these values in a single field of the table? Please help.

Ok Thanks all. Will try your suggestions. But there is one problem. As i have already mentioned that i will have to display this detail in one field of the table control, The format of display is: user name should be seen above and the date and time separated by space should be displayed below the name. How can i ultimately display this in the table control. Do i have to create 2 different fields (one for name and other for date and time) in the AUFK table or is there any other solution?
Thanks

Insert current date and time into Oracle date type field

I have a JDBC current date and time insert into Oracle 9i that almost works. It submits the current date and a fixed time into the Oracle date type field. I am using Tomcat 6.0.20.
For example if I insert the data at 7:24:04 PM on Feb 16, 2010 it will insert as: 16-Feb-2010 12:00:00 AM
The date part works but the time always shows 12:00:00 AM no matter what date or time the data is inserted.
Here is what I have for my JDBC inserts and I also tried something with DateFormat:
PreparedStatement ps; Date mydate = new Date(new java.util.Date().getTime()); //insert statement here.... stmt.setDate(1,mydate);
I also tried:
PreparedStatement ps; java.sql.Timestamp mydate = new java.sql.Timestamp(new java.util.Date().getTime()); SimpleDateFormat fmt = new SimpleDateFormat(.... //insert statement here.... ps.setTimestamp(1,fmt.format(mydate));
Both keep submitting the date into Oracle as 16-Feb-2010 12:00:00 AM
Anyway to get the current date and time? For example if I insert the data at 7:24.04 pm today it should show as 16-Feb-2010 07:24.04 PM in Oracle.

Date mydate = new Date(new java.util.Date().getTime());Please see the javadocs for java.sql.Date and note the part that says "...to zero"

If you want a date and time then use java.sql.Timestamp.

CONCATENATE date and time into a text variable

Hi ABAP Gurus,
I would like to retrieve current system date and time and concatenate into a variable. I would really appreciate if someone could help me. I have the following code and i seem to get some kind of error.
I would like my output to be like:
     "22.JUN.2006 Some Text 12:30:22"
Code:
data: emtext     like TEMSG-EMTEXT.
data: date_output(50) TYPE C.
    CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_SDATE_OUTPUT'
       EXPORTING
           INPUT          = SY-DATUM
       IMPORTING
            OUTPUT        = date_output.
SHIFT date_output RIGHT DELETING TRAILING SPACE.
CONCATENATE date_output ': Some Custom Message '
   INTO emtext.
Also, is there a function to convert time to text or conversion is not necessary?
Thanks.
Regards,
bw_newbie

Here is something a little closer to your requirement.
report zrich_0001 .
data: date(20) type c,
      time(10) type c,
      str type string.
data: xT247 type T247.
select Single * into xt247 from t247
          where MNR = sy-datum+4(2).
concatenate sy-datum+6(2) xt247-ktx sy-datum(4)
          INTO date separated by '.'.
write sy-uzeit to time.
concatenate date 'SomeText' time into str separated by space.
write:/ str.

Function Module to get Date and Time out of Timestamp

Hi,
Source system timestamp field CREATED_TS of Type DEC-15
BW PSA data in format 20.140.707.105.948
In DSO, I have created two target InfoObjects; one for Date and one for Time.
In transformation from PSA to DSO, in field level routine, I want to split timestamp into Date and Time.
There is a function module CACS_TIMESTAMP_GET_DATE in source system but it is not available in BW. Another function module ADDR_CONVERT_TIMESTAMP_TO_DATE which is available in BW but returns only Date.
Does anyone know a function module in BW which takes Timestamp (PSA data in format 20.140.707.105.948) and returns Date and Time.
Much better would be a FM which take timestamp and also Timezone and returns Date and Time.
Thanks
Ahmad

Timestamp to date time conversion (with time zone) is built into ABAP. Why use a function module?
Read the ABAP help on CONVERT.

How to get Date and time of the server?

Hi, How can we get the date and time of the server while submitting a form using JSP? i.e I need the date and time , when the user is submittig a registration.
Uma

Upon receiving your data in your servlet, you can do the following to get the date,
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
int dd = calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
int mm = calendar.get(Calendar.MONTH) + 1;
int yyyy = calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);
String dd_mm_yyyy = dd + "/" + mm + "/" + yyyy;
To get the time, simply take a look at the Calendar API to get the corresponding field.

Getting Date and Time to Show in the Menu Bar

I have the OS setup to set the date and time automatically and the clock set to "show date and time in the Menu Bar. I have the international set up for the Day of Week, Month, Date and Year, but the menu bar only shows "Fri X:XX:XX PM" is there any way to get it to show me Fri May XX, 2008 X:XX:XX PM"?
Thanks for any help.
John

I use iClock too. It is much more customizable than the Time & Date clock provided with the system. I have used it for several years and it has been very stable for a third-party application.
Although I have only used it for a couple of months, I also really like another third-party application you may like, to put weather conditions on the menubar called WeatherDock (freeware). It accesses Weather.com to provide the current temperature (of course) but it can include several other weather conditions (depending on how much space you have on your menubar). In addition to temperature, I have it show the weather condition (currently partly cloudy, typical in Houston), wind direction and speed (I ride a bike to the office and this tells me if I’ll be fighting it or aided), and humidity (also a Houston favorite). It will also speak the weather conditions when they change.

Insert date and time into write to spreadsheet

Easy question here
I need save 4 arrays of data and insert the date and time that it was taken (LV 8.6)
for example
9/4/09 10:00:01 AM 4 6 7 2
9/4/09 10:00:02 AM 4 6 7 2
9/4/09 10:00:03 AM 4 6 7 2
9/4/09 10:00:04 AM 4 6 7 2
Any ideas, I can't wire the timestamp or date/time string right into the create array
Thanks
Chris
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Ok
the basic problem that I see is the the LabVIEW TimeStamp type is a cluster. Converting it to a dbl gives you a value in seconds elapsed since 1904 Jan 1 12:00AM GMT and, your spreadsheet cannot interprate that (or display that) as a "TIME." So, you want to convert it to a string (easy TS->String check the help for format options) BUT, you might want to pass all of your data as numbers into your spreadsheet so you can post-calculate or graph other outputs vs. TIME! This little chunk of code .....
converts a LV Timestamp to a number that Excel interperates as "the amount of days elapsed since 0 Jan 1900 @ 12:00AM LOCAL." You will need to format the cell in Excel to display it as a date-time But it can be operated on and graphed against with only Excel's limitations (Excel followed the Lotus bug of erroneously assuming 1900 was a leap year, and Leap seconds are unrecognized)
Enjoy!

Getting Date and Time

Hi Gurus,
Issue: At present the Shipment Execution time is defaulting to Local Time but the requirement is to always populate Eastern Standard Time (EST). Right now if the shipment creates in US West coast, shipment Execution Date and Time populates with that local time but I need to populate EST.
I need a function module which will take input as 'Time Zone' like EST and return Date and Time (OR) the input could be 'Country' and State and return the local time.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
ananth.

Here is your solution.
The function module IB_CONVERT_INTO_TIMESTAMP is used to convert the time to the GMT. The input parameters are DATE, TIME and the TIMEZONE(user's time zone, default value SY-ZONLO). The output parameter is the timestamp in GMT.
The function module IB_CONVERT_FROM_TIMESTAMP is used to get the time in required time zone. The input parameters for this are the timestamp obtained from the above function module and the time zone, to which the time needs to be converted.
The output parameters are the date, time in the required time zone.

Accomodating date and time in a single Infoobject

Hi Gurus,
We are getting an R/3 field(2 fields) as "YYYY.MM.DD HH:MM:SS". And we have mapped that fields to a Two IO (CHAR).Data is getting loaded fine,but not getting it in the same format (with required DOTS and COLONS).Is there any routine that I can write for this IO.If any one have it ,please pass it on.
The two info objects are : ZCREATE & CHANGEDAT are mapped to "created_at" & "changed_at".
Please tell me step by step code.
Points wil be assured.
No idea on how to write a routine .
Urs,
Rakesh.

Hi,
Currently what format your getting? Please let me know...... so that i can give the correct ABAP code to you...
In my perspective, the time will be loaded properly!!!! because it is standard object... it will take automatically its own format..... (if this also not in your format, let me know)...
I will assume that the time is coming to BW like this : YYYYMMDD.
Then the ZCREATE info object update rule routine is as follows:
DATA : date_only(10) type c.
concatenate COMM_STRUCTURE-ZCREATE+0(4) '.'
COMM_STRUCTURE-ZCREATE+4(2) '.'
COMM_STRUCTURE-ZCREATE+5(2)
into date_only.
result = date_only.
Please verify it and let me know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
