Portal global date format
Our was/ep is set to US date format MM.DD.YY, and I would like to change it globally to EU/London format DD.MM.YYYY.
I tried to look for parameter setting on JVM/Configtool, and could not find the parameter.
Thanks.

Hi all,
I manage to found the path mentioned in the note: 816761. The actual path is under:
System Administration -> System Configuration -> Knowledge Management -> Content Management -> Global Services -> Property Metadata -> Properties.
My version is EP7/NW04S SPS08
However, I have 2 question here:
1. How and what parameters to set under the properties??
2. I tried to change the user profile in my EP but the option is grey off. Reason is because I am using my Backend SAP as the UME source and hence this option is not changable in EP. But I have tried all means and not able to change in SAP. Any advise?
I have do a test by creating a new ID in Portal, ie the user is store in the Java UME database. In this scenario, I will be able to change the user profile to English_UK and this will solve the data format problem to DD/MM/YYYY. But I can't use this method as the requirement is to have UME reference to my backend SAP system.
Any advise from the experts here?
Many thanks in advance.

Portal Language/Date Format
Hi,
Portal Version: 10.1.4
Currently our default Portal language is us and the date format dd-mon-yyyy. Since this not a very common format here page publishers are having difficulties at times to enter the correct date and I would like to change it to dd/mm/yyyy. If I install a different language by running the ptllang script, will I get a different date format too?
Regards
B.According to Oracle documentation this can be changed @ sesion level by the following :
Alter session set nls_date_format='mm/dd/yyyy';
======================================================
To change it @ the instance level, the following needs to be added in the init.ora file :
Nls_date_format="mm/dd/yyyy". -
Portal Activity -- Date format in Usterstat database
Hello,
we have a problem with our activity reporting. The system shows us only 0-3 user per hour in the report.
To see what's the problem we looked in our USERSTAT data base to compare it with the report.
I wonder, if these numbers below are correct? I don't know what they mean. Are this dates?? Could it be a wrong data type??
<u>Here is an extract from our USERSTAT:</u>
TIMESTAMPHOUR AGG
HASHEDUSERID
USE
LOGONID
1.1779E+12 h
USER1
n
USER1
TIMESTAMPHOUR AGG
HASHEDUSERID
USE
LOGONID
1.1792E+12 h
USER2
n
USER2
Thanks in advance.
KirstenHi kristen,
As far as i know SAP runs an agregated Script which will aggreate the data and store the Data.So the data which you see in the database can be one day old ( Need to check on this ) Refer to these
Mysteries of the Portal Activity Report
Mysteries of the Portal Activity Report II
Mysteries of the Portal Activity Report III
refer to these may be of some help.
Thanx

Date format interfering with interactive report
My APEX version is 3.1.1.00.09.
I'm using a method described elsewhere to change the global date format of my application. I have application items for a start and end date. I have two application processes, one for On Load: Before Header, the other for On Submit: After Page Submission - Before Computations and Validations. They both do:
DBMS_SESSION.SET_NLS(param => 'NLS_DATE_FORMAT', value => '''fmMM/DD/fmYY''')
Okay, all is well with that, my dates seem to stay the way I want them to. Since our upgrade I'm going through each section of my application and updating as necessary, and I particularly want to use the interactive reports. They work fine when the page is loaded, but if I change any options on the interactive report and submit it, I get an "ORA-01843: not a valid month" error. If I refresh the page, everything works as it should.
What can I do to get around this, or do I have something wrong with my method that is causing this to happen?
ChrisHi Chris,
I tried to replicate this, but could not. Now granted, I tried this using the new "modern" method of controlling the default application date format via the new application Globalization attribute "Application Date Format". I set the Application Date Format to fmMM/DD/fmYY and my IR on EMP worked just fine.
If you can replicate this on apex.oracle.com (using Application Date Format), I'd be happy to take a look at it.

Invalid date format after APEX upgrade
We are currently working on upgrading our applications from 1.6 to the new APEX 3.2 version. After the upgrade of one of our systems I have a tabular form that is returning the error 'Invalid date format found'. The date that is getting entered into the system is being displayed and choosed via a sql popup. The code for the pop up is
SQL CODE
create or replace view next_weeks as
with t as (
select
trunc(sysdate) + (rownum - 1) / 2 d
from
dual
connect
by rownum <= 28)
, call_info as (
select
c.call_identifier, c.callback_date, c.callback_cancelled
from uid_csr_schedule c
select
to_char(d, 'fmDy MM/DD/YYYY AM') l
, to_char(d, 'dd-mon-yy hh:mi:ss AM') v
,to_char(d, 'mm/dd/yy hh:mi:ss AM') o
from
t
where
((select count(callback_date) from call_info ci where ci.callback_date = t.d
and (ci.callback_cancelled is null or ci.callback_cancelled !='Y'))) <
(select csr_calls_per_period from uid_sch_system_default)
minus
select
to_char(d, 'fmDy MM/DD/YYYY AM') l
, to_char(d, 'dd-mon-yy hh:mi:ss AM') v
,to_char(d, 'mm/dd/yy hh:mi:ss AM') o
from
t
where
(select count(callback_date) from call_info ci where ci.callback_date = t.d
and (ci.callback_cancelled is null or (ci.callback_cancelled !='Y')))
=(select override_amt from uid_sch_call_override
where (to_char(begin_date,'dd-mon-yy') || ' ' || upper(period)) = to_char(t.d, 'dd-mon-yy AM'))
union select
to_char(d, 'fmDy MM/DD/YYYY AM') l
, to_char(d, 'dd-mon-yy hh:mi:ss AM') v
,to_char(d, 'mm/dd/yy hh:mi:ss AM') o
from
t
where
((select count(callback_date) from call_info ci where ci.callback_date = t.d
and (ci.callback_cancelled is null or ci.callback_cancelled !='Y'))) >=
(select csr_calls_per_period from uid_sch_system_default)
and
(select count(callback_date) from call_info ci where ci.callback_date = t.d
and (ci.callback_cancelled is null or (ci.callback_cancelled !='Y')))
<
(select override_amt from uid_sch_call_override
where (to_char(begin_date,'dd-mon-yy') || ' ' || upper(period)) = to_char(t.d, 'dd-mon-yy AM'))
order by o
The form then has the item set as a popup with a date format mask of dd-MON-yy hh:mi:ss AM. The popup displays fine and the date is shown in the field but the error is received when I try to save the information. If I change the application global setting of date format mask to dd-MON-yy hh:mi:ss AM then this error goes away however, it creates problems on all the rest of my pages that use this date in the where clause of the queries. Is there a way to solve the problem above without having to change the globalization parameter or do I need to change this parameter and then redo those queries?
Thanks for your help!
AmberAmber,
It's interesting that the problem goes away if you set the global date format to be the same as the column level. The column level should trump the global setting. What process is returning the error? Are you sure it's the MRU or could it be something custom?
You could consider adding a process before the MRU fires that uses alter session to change the date format.

Hi,
I have created a SQL Report with following select statement. Looks like portal has default format mask for date type as 'DD-MM-YY'.
If I put DD-MM-YYYY or DD-MM-RRRR in Format Mask field in Column Formatting screen, the reports generates 04-10-0002 . It should
be 04-10-2002.
select process_id, last_update_date
from obm
where process_id like (:process_id)
I tried to use the to_char function as following. But it errors ORA-06502:PL/SQL:numeric or value error. Even though it works fine in
my sqlplus session.
select process_id, to_char(last_update_date, 'DD-MM-YYYY')
from obm
where process_id like (:process_id)
Does anyone have any idea?
ThanksHi,
Which version of portal are you using? The error with to_char comes in 30984. This is a bug. The bug no is 2567445. A one-off has been issued. Please look in metalink for it. And for the date formatting in the column formatting section the formatting should work fine. Please check the data in your table.
Thanks,

Date format in Maintain capacity of iSupplier portal
Hi,
In Maintain capacity under planning tab of isupplier portal page, when we select a row and click on Maintain capacity,we get a detail page.In that page we r asked to specify the capacity/day for the given date range.This date field doesnot support the format dd-mon-yy/dd-mm-yy but takes date for eg 3-jul-02 but not 03-jul-02(or) 30-jul-02.
kindly help.The date format is calculated using country and language settings.
Check SAP Notes 947081 and 1164528 which deal with this topic.
If you use an R/3 based store (UME User Management Engine) in the backend system to keep your user data please ensure that you have not only maintained the language setting but also the country setting. Both in combination determine the NetWeaver Web Dynpro locale and in consequence the calendar date format that is used, e.g. DD/MM/YYYY for Australian English and MM/DD/YYYY for USA English.
Thanks,

The Date Format depends on the Browser Language and also the Language set to user in User Administration of Portal.

Hello,
I have imported a Module to Visual Composer from a backend system. I have 4 input parameter's. Two of them are of type date.

I would like to change the date format to mm/dd/yyyy while supplying as a input to backend Function Module,irrespective of user input.
2]I have a input field as userID,my requirement is to fill it automatically with the portal UserID,through which user has logged in.
Does any one have idea about it?

How to Change Date Format according to the Locale/Country of Portal User
Hi,
In a webdynpro applicaiton, how to chage the Date Format according to the Locale/Country of Portal User.
Consider for INDIA: mm/dd/yyyy
Consider for UK: yyyy/mm/dd
So when i select the date from the Date Picker[input ui element bound to date context variable], the date format should be displayed accroding the portal users country/locale.
Creating a simple type for every date format in the dictionary would not be the right solution.
Please help.

Date format becomes incorrect when you run check option on portal
Hi,
We have a report which has Date variable in selection screen. When we enter selection as interval and then when we click on Check option before executing the report, the date format becomes garbage.
Here is an example:
This is what I enter in Date variable :
Date : 01/01/2001-01/01/2010
After that when I click on CHECK option, the system automatically converts the first date into garbage value i.e. 01/01/2001 will be converted to 1//20/01/0
This only happens when we run report in Portal 7.0 When we try to run similar report using default web template of BW 3.5, it works fine.
Has anybody faced similar problem ? We are on Portal Java SP13 with Patch 6.
Thanks,
Parin Gandhi.Thanks Frank for a quick reply.
I have used the SimpleDateFormat for formatting with the pattern as, "MM/dd/yyyy" and it is working fine if user enters 4 digit year.
However, for a entry with 2 digits for a year e.g. 04/10/07 when i parse the date using SimpleDateFormat,it is giving me date as 04/10/0007.
Is there a way by means of which i could force the user to enter 4 digits for the year?
I have tried using dateStyle attribute of <af:convertDateTime> tag with 'shortish' as its value, it converts a 2 digit year into 4digit on the browser side & displays on the screen e.g. if user enters 04/10/07 it will appear as 04/10/2007 on the screen however, in value change listener method, i could see date as 04/10/0007.
Any help in this regard is highly appreciated.

Is there a way where we can control the date format from the portal which when change will take effect of webdynpro java applications deployed?
Scenario: We have webdynpro java applications deployed on the portal. Data are coming from r/3 which include date. NOw what we need is central control on date format.
on webdynpro we can manually set the date format, or it can be dependent to the date settings of the jco user being used.
but how can we set it automatically from the portal? is it possible?Hi
