Name of the day from date based on the logon language

Hi All,
Could anyone help me with any function module which gives the name of the day after entering the date. but the name of the day should be language specific. I know DATE_COMPUTE_DAY_ENHANCED gives the name of the day but this is in english. I want the name/ description based on the logon language.
For example, I login in EN and I execute the above function module for date, 19.10.2010. so the weekday is Thursday. but this 'thursday' should be given in the logon language not the same even if I login in DE etc.
Thanks a lot in advance!!
Regards,
Swathi

Hi Swathi,
You can try to use FM DATE_COMPUTE_DAY to get the day ID, and then consult table T246 or execute FM DAY_NAMES_GET to get the day description in the desired language.
Kind regards,
Garcia

Finding Day from Date i.e. Monday, Tuesday etc

Hi,
I need to find out the day from Date. i.e. Monday, Tuesday etc. This is because if the date falls on Saturday or Sunday need to charge difference rates and on weekdays having normal rates.
Thanks,
Amol

We should probably add a function for this as I've certainly seen the requirement before.
Fortunately it's pretty easy to calculate using a simple rule - the trick is to pick a date in the past that was a Monday, and then use the modulo operator.
For example:
The day of the week = (the given date - 1980-01-07) modulo 7
ie the 7th of January 1980 was a Monday, so every 7th day after that is also a Monday - so combined with the modulo operator this will give you:
0 monday
1 tuesday
5 saturday
6 sunday
The only downside is that dates before 1980-01-07 will give a negative modulo (this is distinct from the mathematical modulo operator, but is necessary to be symmetric with the integer division operator truncating towards zero) - so dates before the baseline date will give:
0 monday
-6 tuesday
-2 saturday
-1 sunday
You can either choose to write the rules to take this into account, or choose a baseline date so far in the past that it's unnecessary.

Hello Shawn,
Messages are always displayed in the logon language so what's the big deal in it?
May be the translation is not maintained for this message in the logon language, hence the issue.
You maintain the translation from SE91.
Get the message details from the RETURN table --> Trxn SE91 --> Select the Message to translate --> From the menu bar : Goto --> Translation

Change to the runtime the logon language with ABAP

Hello,
I have a question.
Is it possible to change to the runtime the logon language?
With the URL-parameter example it worked.
http://www.****bsp/sap/z_page/default.htm?sap-language=en
But I need this in the event handler with ABAP coding.
thanks Eren

you can either use
CL_HTTP_UTILITY->IF_HTTP_UTILITY~SET_REQUEST_URI
uri = sap-language=FR
or
CL_HTTP_REQUEST->IF_HTTP_ENTITY~SET_FORM_FIELD
name = sap-client
value = FR
or
use
SET LOCALE LANGUAGE 'S'. within your abap coding

Subtract business days from date - calculated column

Hello,
I had a calculated column on a library that took two dates and found the difference between them in business days, but I am not sure how to subtract business days from a date...for instance I get a start date from a form and I need to
subtract 10 business days from that date.
Can anyone help?

I've always resorted to Javascript/JQuery for that kind of function. I found an old fashioned loop worked the best for me - it supports going forward or backwards. I key it off of a change in a starting date, or sometimes a status change. My actual production
code takes into account another list where we remove holidays and non-work days.
newDate = getNextDate(newDate, -3);
$("input[title='Date Due']").val((newDate.getMonth() + 1) + "/" + newDate.getDate() + "/" + newDate.getFullYear());
function getNextDate(currentDate, offset) {
// offset is business days
var wkend = 0;
var index = Math.abs(offset); // need positive number for looping
var neg = true;
if(offset >= 0) { neg = false; }
var curDOW = currentDate.getDay();
var nextDate = new Date(currentDate);
for(var i=1; i <= index; i++) {
nextDate.setDate(nextDate.getDate() + (neg ? -1: 1));
var nextDOW = nextDate.getDay();
if(nextDOW == 0) {nextDate.setDate(nextDate.getDate() + (neg ? -2: 1));} // Sunday
if(nextDOW == 6) {nextDate.setDate(nextDate.getDate() + (neg ? -1: 2)); } // Sat
// alert("offset is " + offset + "start: " + currentDate + ", next date is " + nextDate);
return nextDate;

Substracting number of days from date

Hi all, I need to create a user exit to get a date value based on another variable. Basically, 100 days minus the first variable.
var2 = var1 - 100
How can I write this?
Thanks.

Ok, I figured it out. I had to declare variables of type d and then assign it.
IF i_step = 2.
    data:zday type d,
          zday1 type d.

Need help finding accounts that expire 90 days from date created

Hi, I am trying to find all temp accounts in AD that expire 90 days after the account was created. Here is what I have so far. I am not sure how to calculate that. I am not receiving any output.
        $expireDate = (Get-ADUser -filter * -Properties accountExpires).accountExpires
    $accountExpireDate = ([System.DateTime]::FromFileTime($expireDate)).AddDays(-90).Date
    Get-ADUser -Filter {whenCreated -ge $accountExpireDate} -Properties whenCreated | select name | export-csv 'c:\temp\all_temp_users.csv'enter code here

OK. I read your question again and I think I understand what you are asking now.
Try it this way:
$DaysSinceCreation = 90
get-aduser -ldapfilter "(&(!(accountExpires=0))(!(accountExpires=9223372036854775807)))" -properties accountExpires,whenCreated | foreach-object {
$accountExpires = [DateTime]::FromFileTime($_.accountExpires)
if ( ($accountExpires - $_.whenCreated).Days -eq $DaysSinceCreation ) {
new-object PSObject -property @{
"distinguishedName" = $_.DistinguishedName
"whenCreated" = $_.whenCreated
"accountExpires" = $accountExpires
-- Bill Stewart [Bill_Stewart]
Here is what i modified for expand the range of $dayssincecreation value. It appears to work but is kind of sloppy. Its not a big deal, but is there a way to make this cleaner? i tried a range variable and did not have any luck. Again thanks for all your
help!
$DaysSinceCreation = 85
$DaysSinceCreation1 = 86
$DaysSinceCreation2 = 87
$DaysSinceCreation3 = 88
$DaysSinceCreation4 = 89
$DaysSinceCreation5 = 90
$DaysSinceCreation6 = 91
$DaysSinceCreation7 = 92
$DaysSinceCreation8 = 93
$DaysSinceCreation9 = 94
$DaysSinceCreation10 = 95
$DaysSinceCreation11 = 96
get-aduser -ldapfilter "(&(!(accountExpires=0))(!(accountExpires=9223372036854775807)))" -properties accountExpires,whenCreated | foreach-object {
$accountExpires = [DateTime]::FromFileTime($_.accountExpires)

How to change the logon language in module pool program?

Hello All,
I had created a module pool program and had desiged a screen.
When i am logged in English language i am able to see them in english as per the requirement it is working fine.
But the requirement is wen i am logged in DE then the selection-screen texts should show in English and not in German.
Kindly give me a solution for this.
Thanks & Regards,
Rajesh Kumar

Hi Rajesh,
This problem is because you have maintained a standard dictionary fields on selection screen and all the standard dictionary fields are maintained in DE language, on the screen layout, go to the attributes of that particular text field, there is a option MODIFIZ for dictionary fields (it is a drop down), selection F TEXT, now whatever the text u will define, it will remain same for all the languages, once u do this then u again login in DE,l u will see the text maintained by u and not the DE text.
Do reply if problem still persist.
point if useful.

Changing the text symbols in the logon language

Hi...
I want a text symbol to have description in malay. I logged in to the R/3 system in malay language and went into the text symbols space of the respective program which is in SAPLHRHAP_C_IF_DOCUMENT in my case. I need to change the text symbol BEX (Exit) to BEX (keluar) in this malay log on.When I try to rename it, It says that "the text symbol is in original text and cannot be renamed"
can you guys tell me how to do it?
Regards,

if you want all your buttons everywhere to have white text, i'd subclass button and make the necessary change in that by calling setForeground();
otherwise, call setForeground() on all your buttons...
