How to calculate first date of month from a given date in IDT BusinessObjects

Hello Experts,
I have a date field in IDT Universe which shows date in this format: Dec 13,2014 12.00.00 PM. Now I want to extract first day and last day of month from this date value. For example: here I want to see Dec 01,2014 12:00:00 PM and Dec 31, 2014 12:00:00 PM in First day of month and Last day of month columns. Also, if database date value is Nov 17, 2014 12:00:00 PM then in first day of month column, it should show Nov 01, 2014 12:00:00 PM and in last day of month it should show Nov 30, 2014 12:00:00 PM.
I got some google help but 'Date' function is not supported by IDT tool in BusinessObjects.
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
Try to use the DB Functions to find out the First and last day. Please find out the below screenshot.
If DB is BW, you can calculate the First and last day @ BW level use same object in BO directly.

  • How to get period date of for a given month from a given date in mdx for SSRS report (mm/dd/yyyy)

    I have a situation,  where i need to write expression Period to date(PTD). i want to know how to get the period date. i want you to help in writing Period date or else is there any function to get period date for a given date(the  date is given
    from the parameter dynamically) in MDX for SSRS report
    ram

    Hi ram,
    Per my understanding that you want to get the period date based on the month selected and the given date, right?
    Could you please provide details information below to help us better understanding your requirements, thus we will be more effective to provide an solution:
    What is the format of the period date you want to get, is this date in the DB and you want to filter it based on the month and the given Date?
    Did the month and given date are two parameters in the report? if possible, could you please provide some sample data in the DB and also the snapshot of the report structure
    I assume you want to get the period date(mm/dd/yyy) between the select month(e.g:Feb) and the given date (10/1/2014) and you should get the date between(02/01/2014-10/1/2014).
    If so,and you also have two parameter "Month","EndDate"(EndDate is the given date), please reference to details information below:
    You can create an new parameter "BeginDate" (Date/Time) which is the begin date of the period, you can use the expression to get the value based on the value of the month and the year value from the given date,finally hide this parameter:
    Specify the available value:
    Label:=Parameters!Month.Value &"/01/"& DatePart("yyyy",Parameters!EndDate.Value)
    Value:=CDate(=Parameters!Month.Value &"/01/"& DatePart("yyyy",Parameters!EndDate.Value))
    Specify the default Value:
    Value:=CDate(=Parameters!Month.Value &"/01/"& DatePart("yyyy",Parameters!EndDate.Value))
    Add filter to the dataset as below:
    Preview you will get all the date in the given Period:
    If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

  • Number of Days from a given Date

    How can one calculate the number of days in a month from a given date?
    Ex: If I pass 07/12/2008 it should return 31

    But your example doesn't meet the OP request. The OP wanted the number of days in a month where the month is determined by a specified date (paraprhased).
    DimaCit gave two credible solutions that met that requirement. Yours just counts the number of days between two apparently arbitrary dates.

  • How to get the first day in the month from a domain date ?

    Hi,
    I like to know how to get the first day in the month from a domain date?
    Thanks
    Stephen

    Hi Gokul...
    Instead of using the funtion module you can just write the 3 statements of code to get the first day of the week.
    Its similar to the above one but instead of writing case statement you can achive the following.
    data : w_res type i,
             w_data type d,
    w_res = w_date mod 7.
    w_date = w_date - w_res.
    write w_date.
    This works.

  • How do I display today's date and a date 1 month from today in livecycle designer

    Hello,
    Does anyone know how to display a future dates in 3 date fields that would be 1 month; 2 months and 3 months from today?
    I am making a sales contract form and in a date field is today's date (which can be altered if the user needs to change it).  The javascript I have is:
    if 
    (this.rawValue == null){
    var  
    msNow = (new Date()).getTime();
    var  
    d1 = new Date(msNow); this.rawValue
    = util.printd("mmm/dd/yyyy", d1);}
    else  
    { this.rawValue
    = rawValue;
    Then in the next date field i need to display the date 1 month from today
    The third date field 2 months from today
    the fourth date filed 3 months from today.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Peter,
    If you need to be more exact than adding 30 days then you can use the following code;
    function 
    addMonth(date){
      var year = date.getFullYear();  
      var month = date.getMonth();  
      var day = date.getDate();  month= (month % 12) + 1;  year
    += parseInt(month / 12); 
      var days = daysInMonth(month, year);  
      if (day > days)  {
        day= days;   }
      return new Date(year, month, day);}
     function  daysInMonth(iMonth, iYear){
      return 32 - new Date(iYear, iMonth, 32).getDate();}
    You need to pass in a Date object to addMonth so (assuming DateTimeField1 is your date field);
    NextMonth.rawValue= util.printd("mmm/dd/yyyy", addMonth(
    = util.printd("mmm/dd/yyyy", addMonth(
    Date.parse(DateTimeField1.formattedValue));

    Mudassar

    Hi Mudassar,
    The issue is caused by the order in which the parameters appear in the report data tab can be difference between our report execution and it failing. In other words, “Parameter2” is execution before parameter “A” due to this issue. We can adjust the parameter’s
    order to solve the issue.
    If “Parameter2” is parameter “A”, we cannot use that expression. Because fields cannot be used in report parameter expression, if we want to display the first value returned from a query as default value, we have to fill the “Specify values” text box with
    the specific value in Default Values dialog box.

  • Calculate all days in month from schedule line delivery date for 12 mths

    Hi experts,
    I am trying to solve a problem and would appreciate any help! Im on BI7.
    The user will input a date for the schedule line delivery date via a variable.
    From this date I need to go forward 12 months exactly and display a key figure (outstanding value) by months but the first and last months must only use the days in that month i.e not the whole month if not selected by the user.
    I.e if the user types in 13.05.2008
    The display need to show (columns)
    May 08 (13th to end of May 2008)
    June 08   (All)
    July 08    (All)
    August 08    (All)
    Sept 08    (All)
    Oct 08     (All)
    Nov 08     (All)
    Dec 08    (All)
    Jan 09     (All)
    Feb 09    (All)
    Mar 09    (All)
    April 09   (All)
    May 09  (1st to 12)
    So I neen to restrict the key figure (Outstanding Value) by Schedule Line Delivery Date and display as above on a 12 month forecast basis from the day (sch line delivery daye) entered as a variable by the user.
    I also need the first month to only show the dates in the month remaining including the date entered as a variable. The last month must go up to the day before exactly a year in front.
    I have created the 12 months as a structure and can include the key figure and the schedule line delivery date. The schedule line delivery date for each period needs to be restricted. How can I do this to achieve the above?
    Thanks in advance. Will assign good points for a speedy solution.
    Best
    Steve.

    Hi,
        Check "OVLY" and "OVLZ" and If the sceduling is active for he shipping point /sales document type.  Check "OVXD" and see If the Loading time/ Pick/pack time is determined from it. If they are getting determined from shipping point check the shipping point calender in "SCAL" .If it has saturday and sunday as holidays ,then you may have to change them. And check If the customer has goods recieving hours assigned to him (In customer master unloading point). If he has only 5 working days and If he accepts only goods at 8 am in the morining then system would propose like this.Kindly please let me know If you need any more Information on this.
