Need group date in YYYY-MM format

I hope someone can help me. I have a report where I am totaling up quantities by months. The date that I am basing it on can be either an order line date or, if it has a schedule, the line schedule date. The dates are in mm/dd/yyyy format. I created a formula for "RelDate" to determine which date to use:
IF {p21_view_oe_line.scheduled}="N"
THEN {p21_view_oe_line.required_date}
ELSE {p21_view_oe_line_schedule.release_date}
I need to change that date to format YYYY-MM and define it as a group for totals and also so it prints in the correct date order. I was able to create a date using the Month and Year functions but I need a 2 digit month, not a one digit month for January-September, for sorting purposes.
I tried using the right/left functions to extract the dates but it is looking for a string variable, not a date
I'm not too proficient at CR yet and cannot figure out how to it. Kindly advise.
Thank you very much in advance for your help!

Hi Jan,
You can use this formula to show the Month with a leading zero:
totext({p21_view_oe_line.required_date}, "MM")
To show the full four digits of the year use:
totext({p21_view_oe_line.required_date}, "yyyy")
Hope this helps!

Group by MM/YYYY when date = mm/dd/yyyy

Post Author: misslora
CA Forum: Formula
I want to group data by employee first, then mm/yy and within that group count data by specific code. The Date field in the db is mm/dd/yyyy.
I create group by employee first, then date, second group by items. I formatted the date field to be mm/yyyy, then counted the items and placed that in the group footer for the date group.
Expected Results:
SMITH: Jan-07 mufflers = 10, wipers = 5
JONES: Jan-07 mufflers 3, wipers 2
Feb-07 mufflers = 5, wipers = 2, tires = 10
Actual Results:
Smith: Jan 07 mufflers = 5, wipers = 2
Jan 07 mufflers = 5, wipers = 3
I need to actually convert the mm/dd/yyyy field to a true MM/YY field.
Thanks for any help you can give.

You don't really need the variable - create a formula that reads:
ToText({table.datefield}, 'yyyyMM')
Group by this formula. The format string IS CASE SENSITIVE!
You want to have year first so that you get your data in true date order. You can display the the month name, but you need to use the month number for your group for the same reason. Because this is a string, to have your months come out in the correct order instead of 1, 10, 11, 12, 2, 3... you need to have a leading zero on it.

Formatting a date in YYYY-MM-DD format in a grid in We dynpro abap

Hi All,
I have the requirement to display a date in YYYY-MM-DD format in a salv_wd_table grid .

ABAP is pretty good about automatically using the user's profile settings for formatting. That enforces consistency across applications. If you want to override this, you will need to do it at the data level. Instead of defining this field in the context as a data - define it like a string or char10. Then when you populate the data within your business logic do a WRITE statement from the data field to the character field. During the WRITE command you can specify the date formatting option:
From the online syntax of WRITE:
Addition 15
... DD/MM/YY | MM/DD/YY
| DD/MM/YYYY | MM/DD/YYYY
| DDMMYY | MMDDYY
| YYMMDD
Effect: These additions influence the output of data objects of the data type d. In all other data types, the addition is ignored.
The content of a data object of type d is interpreted as a valid date in the format YYYYMMDD and is output as follows for the individual additions:
DD/MM/YY and MM/DD/YY:
Both additions have the same effect. The date output has a two-digit year value and a separator. The separator and the order are taken from the definition for date output in the user master record.
DD/MM/YYYY und MM/DD/YYYY:
Both additions have the same effect. The date output has a four-digit year value and separator. The separator and the order are taken from the definition for date output in the user master record.
DDMMYY und MMDDYY:
Both additions have the same effect. The date output has a two-digit year value and no separator. The order is taken from the definition for date output in the user master record.
YYMMDD:
This addition provides a date output with a two-digit year value without a separator in the format YYMMDD.
But even this approach is going to have limited impact. It will only let you chose between the allowed formatting types from the user master. YYYY-MM-DD is not one of those formats.
So if you really want a non-SAP formatted date you will have to break it up yourself. The internal date format is always stored as YYYYMMDD. You can just parse it out:
data year type char4.
data month type char2.
data day type char2.
year = sy-datum+0(4).
month = sy-datum+4(2).
day = sy-datum+6(2).
data date_string type char10.
concatenate year `-` month `-` day into date_string.

Can we configure Oracle 10g xe so that it accept date in yyyy-mm--dd format

I am facing problem in inserting and updating data in oracle server through jdbc. its java.sql.Date class sends date in yyyy-mm-dd format while oracle requires date in dd-mmm-yy format. can we configure oracle server in such a way that we may send date in yyyy-mm-dd format to insert and update?

People should be sure of their information before
posting, even more so if they have an Oracle Ace
credential,as they're more likely to be believed. Not sure what you are saying.
The way I read it, Avi stated that overriding the NLS_DATE_FORMAT as an initialization parameter WILL NOT affect the way XE works, and you still need to set the parameter at the session level.
This is true.
As demonstrated here, where I
- startup my XE (SuSE 10.1 Pro/Linux),
- show the NLS setting,
- log on to a regular user, -
- show the system date,
- change the NLS_DATE_FORMAT system wide by updating my PFILE,
- restart the database
- show the NLS_DATE_FORMAT
- extract the system date.
As you see from the console session, the date still comes out in the format defined by the NLS_TERRITORY, in spite of what the global NLS_DATE_FORMAT indicates.

Unable to get date in yyyy.MM.dd format

Hi All
I am unable to get date in yyyy.MM.dd format.
I tried everything said in the previous postiongs.Nothig seem to work.
I am getting date in yyyy-MM-dd
This needs to be changed in said format. Also datatype should be date only.
Regards
Pratyush

You can solve the problem in two ways
First way;
Format formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy.MM.dd");
String s = formatter.format(date);
OR
Assuming your context attribute name is Date
IWDAttributeInfo attributeInfo = wdContext.getNodeInfo().getAttribute("Date");
attributeInfo.getDataAttribute().getScalarType().format("yyyy.MM.dd");
Second way;
By changing the default Language of your browser. You have to check the format of each language and choose the language that gives the date in yyyy.MM.dd format.

Convert mm/dd/yyyy text format to date format

I imported a csv file and the date column is in text format. How do I convert it from m/d/yyyy text format to yyyy-mm-dd DATE format in Numbers v 3.1?
Thanks for any help you can give!

UPDATE: I found that your formula didnt produce the correct result
It changed mm/dd/yyyy to yyyy/dd/mm — rather than the desired yyyy/mm/dd
By hacking at it, I found that changing the D column formulas around fixed this.
Your original function:
D2=RIGHT(A2,4)&"-"&MID(A2, B2+1, C2−B2−1)&"-"&LEFT(A2,B2−1)
Changed:
D2 =RIGHT(A2,4)&"-"&LEFT(A2,B2−1)&"-"&+MID(A2, B2+1, C2−B2−1)

How to convert Date in varchar(50) format MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM into YYYY-MM-DD format using MS SQLServer 2008 R2 ?

Hi,
I am getting the error "The conversion of a varchar data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range value."
when converting date in format Date in varchar(50) format MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM into YYYY-MM-DD format using MS SQLServer 2008 R2.
Please note that the date in column is Date(varchar(50), null).
I used the following syntax:
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), Date, 102) AS Day
FROM dbo.[RCap_2G MM/Operator]
WHERE (CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), Date, 102) > { fn NOW() } - 1)

As noted above, either use ISDATE or TRY_CONVERT with the correct conversion style number:
-- SQL Server 2012 code
DECLARE @Date varchar(50) = '10/23/2006 10:20';
SELECT TRY_CONVERT(DATE, @Date, 101) AS Day
-- 2006-10-23

How to convert JAVA.SQL.DATE date in YYYY/MM/DD format into DD/MM/YYYY

i am using informix database which accepts date value in the form of DATE format......
the other part of my application takes date from the field in DD/MM/YYYY format...so i have to convert my java.sql.date in YYYY/MM/DD fromat into DD/MM/YYYY fromat of same type before inserting into db......
but using parse method in SimpleDateFormat class can get the result only in java.util.date format...
and also using format method can result only in string conversion........

Maybe you mean Informix (fronted by JDBC) expects date values as java.sql.Date objects?
the other part of my application takes date from the field in DD/MM/YYYY format...
so i have to convert my java.sql.date in YYYY/MM/DD format into DD/MM/YYYY format of same type before inserting into db......I am not sure why you are talking about formats here.
There is no formatting inherent in a java.util.Date object
nor in a java.sql.Date object.
but using parse method in SimpleDateFormat class can get the result only in java.util.date format...
and also using format method can result only in string conversion........You can easily create a java.sql.Date object from a java.util.Date object.
String s = "31/12/2010";
java.util.Date ud = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy").parse(s);
java.sql.Date sd = new java.sql.Date(ud.getTime());
ud = sd; // java.sql.Date extends java.util.Date so no conversion is needed

Function module to convert date form yyyy/mm/dd to dd/mm/yyyy format

Can any one tell me Function module to convert date form yyyy/mm/dd to dd/mm/yyyy format?

have a look at the WIKI FAQs...they are very useful
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/abap/abapDevelopmentand+Programming&
For this it says:
<i>How to convert a date to internal or external format?
Use the functions modules CONVERT_DATE_TO_EXTERNAL or CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL
to convert the date. When converting to external format, the date format from the user's user profile will be used. When converting to internal format, the result will be in YYYYMMDD format.</i>

How to convert a date field with format (dd,mm,yyyy) to format (mm,dd,yyyy)

Hello.
How to convert a date field with format (dd,mm,yyyy) to format (mm,dd,yyyy)
I have text field which has a databind to a date field. When I click on it, we can select the date, it is added on the format (dd,mm,yyyy). When I want to insert this date field to a database It doesnu2019t allow me to do it because it will only accept date field on the format (mm,dd,yyyy)
I tried to store this format on a date variable and I get a message saying that is impossible to convert a string into a date.
Regards,
Jose

Hi Jose,
usually you format strings in c# like
string.Format("{0:yyyyMMdd}", insertyourstring);
in your case
string.Format("{0:MM/dd/yyyy}", insertyourstring);
[look here|http://idunno.org/archive/2004/14/01/122.aspx]
there are more details
if everything fails split the string with Mid()
or ask me
