Problem printing date on the form

Hello friends ,
I am doing form for the HR . Is there any special formatting needed to print the date on the form . I am doing this .
&t_payment-paydate& in the main window of the form .
t_payment is the table and paydate the date of payment . But instead of printing 1/22/2006 . It is printing 3//20/07/2 some junk value . Is it the format related problem ?
Any suggestions . You help would be greatly appreciated .
Regards & Thanks ,
Hari

HI,
You can do like this.
You make the following changes in the program
1. Define a character type field
     data: v_payment_date(10) type c.
2.  Assign the date value to the character field
      write t_payment-paydate to v_payment_date.
You make the following changes in your sapscript text element.
    instead of using field t_payment-paydate use v_payment_date.
Thanks

  • How do you print data from a form?

    From the interactive report, there's a built in function to print to variious formats (e.g., PDF, CSV, etc).
    As long as the columns do not exceed the width of a page, it's okay.
    But what I want to do is when a user clicks on 'edit' from the interactive report and displays the data entry screen, I want to be able to have a 'Print' button to print the data from a form.
    Don't want to manually modify the URL to change a parameter to print.
    Really appreciate any help I can get on this matter!!!

    I want to be able to have a 'Print' button to print the data from a form.Create a Print button in the form page with an <tt>onclick</tt> attribute that calls the method<tt>print()</tt> method:
    onclick="window.print();"
    Don't want to manually modify the URL to change a parameter to print. Sounds like you want to be able to control which page elements are printed and how they are formatted?
    This is quite straightforward using a print media style sheet.
    You'll need to identify CSS selectors (usually IDs and classes) from the page HTML for the components and regions that are not to be printed: a web inspector such as that found in Safari, or the Firefox+Firebug combo is useful for this. It's also a good idea to give all of your regions a unique static region ID to assist with this identification. Using this information, you can construct the style sheet to exclude all of the unwanted content using <tt>display: none</tt> rules.
    In a simplified example, say you identify that there are 4 regions on the page, and you only want to print region 3. You would add the following style sheet to the page HTML Header:
    <style type="text/css" media="print">
    #region-1, #region-2, #region-4 {
      display: none;
    </style>+{message:id=2475831}+ is a solution to a similar problem, and see this article for more enhancements that can be included in your print style sheet.
    Really appreciate any help I can get on this matter!!!You'll get effective help more quickly if you include the following information upfront when posting a question. This enables others to understand, replicate and determine the most appropriate fix without wasting time asking all kinds of supplementary questions:
    - APEX version
    - DB version and edition
    - Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener)
    - Browser(s)/version(s) used
    - Theme used
    - Templates used
    - Region/Report/Process type

  • How to execute the data in the form when the data is already avaliable

    Hi,
    I am working with forms 6i. I have a problem while executing the data in the form
    Actually, the data is already present in the form. But when i run the form, the data is not displayed.
    can anyone please help me how to execute the data. below is the code
    Set_Alert_Property(alert_id,ALERT_MESSAGE_TEXT,'Do you want to refresh new Data for that Year and Field ? (it will take a time).') ;
                   SET_ALERT_BUTTON_PROPERTY(alert_id, ALERT_BUTTON1, LABEL, 'Yes');
                   SET_ALERT_BUTTON_PROPERTY(alert_id, ALERT_BUTTON2, LABEL, 'No');
                   SET_ALERT_BUTTON_PROPERTY(alert_id, ALERT_BUTTON3, LABEL, 'Cancel');
                   button_number :=Show_Alert(alert_id) ;
                   synchronize;
                   if button_number != ALERT_BUTTON3 then
                        if button_number = ALERT_BUTTON1 then
                             :param.field := :control.f_cd;
                             :param.year := :control.year;
                             build_tables;
                             fields;
    -- areas(:param.field);
                             PUT_PARAM;
                             COMMIT_FORM;
                        go_block('wet_criterias');
                        end if;
                        if button_number = ALERT_BUTTON2 then
                             :exhibits.field_display := :control.f_name || ' - Exhibits';
                             go_block('RESERVOIR');
                             execute_query;
                        end if;
                   end if;
              end if;
    else
         message('Fields must be entered...');
    end if;
    else
    message('Fields must be entered...');
    end if;

    It's hard to know what logic you are trying to implement.
    However, by looking at your code, it seems that if the user select 'Yes' to the question "Do you want to refresh", nothing is done except the go_block('wet_criterias'). Should there be an 'Execute_Query' ?
    No idea...

  • Pre-populating Server's Current Date in the form- How to??

    The simplest way of doing this is writing one-line formcalc script.
    This is not fair when the user changes his local system date/time.
    I need to know how to pre-populate the server date in the form?
    One way of doing this is writing a web service.
    Any other simple solution to do this??
    Thanks,
    Nith

    If you are using LiveCycle Forms (7.x, ES, or ES2), with .pdf rendering on the server or the client, you can execute the script server side. Otherwise you have no other option but to access an external resource (REST, Web Service, JSP/servlet, etcetera) for the time, if you need to accurately capture form open time on the desktop.

  • Problem loading data from the PSA to the InfoCube

    Hello experts.
    I'm having a problem loading data from the PSA to the InfoCube.
    I'm using a DTP for this process but is happening the following error:
    "Diagnosis
          An error occurred while executing the transformation rule:
          The exact error message is:
          Overflow converting from''
          The error was triggered at the point in the Following Program:

    Does anyone have any idea what to do?
    Thank you.

    HI,
    Is it a flat file load or loading frm any data source?
    try to execute the program GP4KMDU7EAUOSBIZVE233WNLPIG 718 in Se38 and check if its active and no syntax errors are there.
    Check the mapping of the fileds in transformations weather
    some data fileds are mapped to decimal or char 32 filed is mapped to Raw 16
    or calweek, calmonth mapped to calday etc.
    Check in St22 if there any short dumps ..

  • Printing Response Data in the Form Layout?

    I'd like to be able to select a response and print the data in the format of the form (so it looks the way it did when they entered it.)  How can I do that?

    Unfortunately you can't print a selected response and retain the format of the form. You can print out a response in more of a "record view". Try this - go to View menu -> Details View. A panel will open, at the bottom of the panel you can see buttons for save the detail view as PDF or print it.
    This type of functionality is something we plan to provide in the coming months.
    Hope this helps

    Hello all,
    I want to print the date in the cheque box column automatically.I used sy-datum.but its not coming in the proper field of day,month and year.can anyone please help me to do it .
    Thank in advance.

    Check user master records for date format. Which tool did you use SapScript or Smartforms, you could alsop look for date formatting in those tools.
    Smartforms : Smart Forms, Using SAP Smart Forms, Using Parameters in a Form, Using Fields in the Form, Output Options for Field Contents
    Sapscript : BC Style and Form Maintenance, Formatting Options, Date Mask
    NB: Better use sy-datlo if your systems have users worldwide.
