How to get yesterday's date

Hi,
I use TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'YYYYMMDD') - 1 to get yesterday's date.
But this logic seems to fail when run on the 1st day of the month (ex: 20081001).
How can I get yesterday's date?
Thanks,
Raja

How about
SELECT TO_CHAR(sysdate - 1, 'yyyymmdd') yesterday
  FROM dual
YESTERDAY
20080930?

  • How to get  the actual data in ALV report

    I am doing some upgradation work   in that i am using Submit  & And return and  also i am using some function modules like LIST FROM MEMORY , LIST TO TXT wnd WRITE LIST , it gives output in normal list format , But i need to print in ALV report .

    Hi Saravana
    I am sure you must be getting the values in tables of table parameters from every FM.
    consolidate the values from tables of all FMs in one table and built ALV for that table only.
    I hope this way you can show the actual data in ALV.
    thanks

  • SSIS Expression to get yesterday's date

    Hi ,
    I used the following expression to get yesterday's date :
    (DT_WSTR,4)YEAR(GETDATE())
    + RIGHT("0"+(DT_WSTR, 2) MONTH(GETDATE()) ,2)
    + RIGHT("0"+(DT_WSTR, 2) DAY(DATEADD("dd", -1, GETDATE())) ,2)
    It returns correct date but fails on last day of the month. Eg : If today is Feb 01 ,2015 , this expression returns 
    20150231 (Feb 31 2015) . It should return 20150131 (Jan 31 , 2015) . What expression to use to get correct previous date?

    this?
    (DT_DATE) DATEADD("DAY",-1,GETDATE())
    if you dont have timepart use
    (DT_DATE) (DT_DBDATE) DATEADD("DAY",-1,GETDATE())

    1. Create a  New Formula in Key Figures structure
    2. Give tech name and description and Select "New variable" option
    3. Next screen will launch Variable Wizard -> create a new variable with replacement path as processing type
    4. in next screene  select the date characteristic that represents the first date to use in the calculation (From Date)
    5. In the next  screen select Key in the Replace Variable with field. Leave all the other options as they are
    6. In the next Currencies and Units screen select Date as the Dimension ID.
    6. Save variable
    repeate the Above steps to create another variable (To Date)
    and now you can use these two new replacement path variables in your new formula.

  • How to get the pixel data so as to work on it?

    Hi all,
    I am trying to write a plug-in that will crop and scale the image, edit the selection in the image document based on image data. For this purpose I need the pixel data of the image. How to get the image data as different pixels and what is the data structure used to store this data?
    Assumption: No layers i.e., only background
    Thanks in advance,
    Sailu

    Hi Ilya,
    Thank you for your post. In the plugin architecture you propose (automation + filter), do you have an idea about how to share the pixel data between the two plugins? I have found a post that gives details about how to get pixel data and show it using ADM components
    Matthew Hollingworth, "ADM Color Managed Preview?" #1, 22 Oct 2007 11:53 pm but it supposes that you have a filter plug-in.
    Again, does anyone knows how to preview the current image in a AUTOMATION plug in? This seems impossible.
    Thank you all for your help
    Cheers,

  • How to get both OTF data and spool at a time

    Hi Experts,
        My requirement is to get both OTF data and spool.
    In 'OPEN_FORM' i tried passing itcpo-TDGETOTF = 'X'. itcpo- TDNEWID = 'X'.
    I was able to get OTF data but spool is not getting generated.
    IF i pass only itcpo- TDNEWID = 'X'. the spool is getting generated but not OTF data.
    when both the fields are set i.e. itcpo-TDGETOTF = 'X'. itcpo- TDNEWID = 'X'.
    the spool is generation is getting supressed.
    Similarly when i tried to get OTF data by passing itcpo-TDGETOTF = 'X'. to 'OPEN_FORM' as i need to convert it to PDF and send it to vendors as email ,
    The print preview in TCODE ME23n was not getting generated for 'MESSAGE' option 'External send'.
    Please suggest me how to get both OTF data and spool at a time.

    Hi Kartik,
    This one is similar to my question to print and email invoice at same time.  I pass itcpo-tdgetotf = 'X' in order to get otfdata and send email with the attachment of otfdata.
    Now I have data in otfdata, but when I call print_otf function, I clear out itcpo-tdgetotf, and passed
    itcpo-tddest = device_type but I still get error message said 'Handler not valid for open spool request'.
    Can you give me a working example that you have otfdata table and print data from that table.  I also post my question on other thread
    submit report and export to memory
    thanks
