How to fomat a number cell to show up in Date format in FR in 11.1.1.3

I developed a Financial Report using Essbase connection (Cannot create as Planning connection due to some restraints).
I have a date type field in the report.The cell is displaying 20120123 which is fine since I am using the Essbase connection. But I would like it to be in a Date format (1/23/12) .
Does anyone know as to how can I do this or its even possible ?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Have you tried the Date Function
for example
if the date is April 24:
<<Date("dd-M-yy")>> displays 24-4-02
<<Date("dd-MM-yy”)>> displays 24-04-02
<<Date("dd-MMM-yy")>> displays 24-Apr-02
<<Date("dd-MMMM-yy")>> displays 24-April-02

  • How do I get the cells to show up darker when printing my document

    When using Numbers, how do I get the cells to show up darker when printing my document?

    Are you asking about the cell background, as ivmedic has assumed, or about how to make the grid lines separating the cells darker?
    Select the table.
    Use the controls shown above this table to change:
    Stroke type from "Thin" to the solid line shown.
    Stroke thickness to 1 pt
    Stroke colour to a darker value (This is set to black, the rightmost cell in the top row of the Color Palette available fir this Color Well.)
    the controls are toward the right end of the Format Bar.

    Under the Dates tab you can customize settings.
    You might need to restart your Mac after making the settings.

  • How to find the number of entries in a master data table

    Hi Experts,
    I am trying to find the entries in 0CUSTOMER master data.
    BW>LISTCUBE>Data target: 0CUSTOMER and selected the fields that I need.
    I would like to know how to find the "number of entrees". I tried to run the SUM for a count field, but it is taking forever as there are huge number of records .

    Hi Dev,
    Go to the change/display mode of the info object (0CUSTOMER) in your case. Go to the Master data/Text tab. Here you will find the master data tables according to your settings (P orQ or X or Y). Double click on the table name and it will take you to the SE11 display. From there, you can check the number of records as you do in any transparent table.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks and Regards

    Are the numbers in ASCII?  Use the Spreadsheet String to Array function.  Wire in a space constant to the delimiter and a 1D array of doubles to the array type.  You can then use Index Array to get the value you want.

    If greater than 24 hours you'll need to calculate the hours and minutes as numbers individually. (You can then display them in whatever format you choose)

  • How to query the number of working days between two dates

    I'm looking for a solution to calculate the number of <i>working</i> days between two dates that I can use in a formated search. 
    Calculating the total number of days is pretty straight forward but does anyone know how to take into account the settings in the HLD1 (Holiday Dates) table?

    Hi Eric,
    If you are purely looking to exclude holidays defined in the HLD1 table, then you should be able to do it with the following query
    NOTE: The following query is an example using OINV table and the fields DOCDATE and DOCDUEDATE for a Particular DOCNUM  'xxx'
    If you planning to use within the SAP module then replace DOCDATE and DOCDUEDATE with dynamic field references $[$x.x.x]
    SELECT DATEDIFF(DAY,T0.DOCDATE,T0.DOCDUEDATE)-
    (SELECT COUNT(STRDATE) FROM HLD1 WHERE STRDATE >= T0.DOCDATE AND STRDATE <= T0.DOCDUEDATE)
    FROM OINV T0
    WHERE T0.DOCNUM = xxx

  • How to get the number of days between 2 given dates

    Hi all,
    How can I find the number of days between any 2 given dates.
    Thanks

    Hi
    Here's a dirty way:
    If you've got two Date objects in Java, call getTime() on each one (which gives you a value in milliseconds), then subtract the two millisecond values, and divide the result by the number of milliseconds in a day (24 * 60 * 60 * 1000). There's more `elegant' ways to do this, but this method only requires one line of Java.
    Best wishes

  • How to increase the number of processes taken for loading data?

    Hi,
    While loading data from R/3 to BW, we found that the particular load is taking 2 processes to load data into Cube.
    Is there anyway to increase the number to 4 ?
    Thanks in advance.
    Bobby.

    Bobby,
       to my knowledge we can't change that. Let me explain this, we have setting in the source system for DS default Data Transfer. there we will assign the processes. if you want to assign 4 you need to change the setting in the source system. For flat files we can change in BW System. We can maintain the setting in the Infopackage level(wht we are assigned in the Source System), but we can't change the process.
    in order to check the setting in source system  SBIW--> General Settings --> Control Parameters for Data Transfer.
    we need to change here, this will effect to all the Data Sources. Before making changes check with your basis.
    All the best.

  • How to do Regional Setting Configuration in RDP session ( Eg Date Format, Currency, Decimal Seperator etc)

    Hi All,
    I am new to Windows Server 2008 R2 administration.
    I would like to know is there a way to  do Regional Setting Configuration in RDP session. i.e Date Format, Currency, Decimal Separator etc are based on users local machine.
    Eg If a user from UK logs in he should see date format as DD/MM/YY and if user from US logs in he should date format as MM/DD/YY.
    We are currently using citrix and we are managing this using logon script that runs based on citrix published application name.
    Is there any way we can achieve the same in RDP ?
    Thanks in Advance.

  • How is it possible to extend pattern chars valid for Date formatting?

    Hi
    I need to represent Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH and Calendar.MONTH date fields in one symbol (1,2,3,..,9,A,B,C,D..) and keep working standard patterns
    SimpleDateFormart doesn't give such possibility.
    In a result i want to have something like that:
    ExtDateFormat edf = new ExtDateFormat("yyyy/B/C"); // where B - is month in (1,2,3,..,9,A,B,C), C - is day in (1,2,3,..,9,A,B,C..)
    System.out.println(edf.format(Calendar.getInstance().getTime())); // prints something like "2008/03/D"

    You can extend the wireless range of the AirPort with a D-Link or the other way around ... BUT only if the connection between them is wired. This would be the basis of a roaming network. If you must have them interconnected by wireless, then it will NOT work.
