String to DATS format conversion in XI.

Hello Experts,
I am using Powerbuilder system to get my Legacy data.In Powerbuilder Date needs to be supplied in STRING format.So I am giving String Format (dd-mmm-yyyy).
However, at SAP end, Date needs to be in DATS format (Standard SAP yyyymmdd) .
In Message Mapping I have given I/P structure as String and O/P structure as DATS format. When I test mapping in XI, it gives me Parseable error.
Can anybody tell me, is there any way in XI to convert from String to DATS format so that I do not get Parseable error.
Please Help!!!!

Lokesh,
With XI there is a date transformation function under date category there you need to provide source date format and target date format..
I have used the same for fetching the data from oracle..and posting into SAP..it works fine..
Try this ..this will solve ur problem....you just need to see what is the exact date format used by powerbuilder internally...
Regards,

RE: Oracle DATE data format conversion..

<C.M> Motta's question about dates and oracle>
Dealing with dates and Oracle is somewhat of a nuisance. Oracle is very
particular about how date strings are formatted, and if you get it wrong,
you get the (unhelpful) message that C.M. Motta showed us. However, if
you pass a DateTimeData to Oracle, Forte' does the right formatting for you.
If you do need to format the date prior to interacting with Oracle, use the
following format:
dd-mmm-yy <time component>
You can change the default format, but it is not easy.
If you customise Express generated code that interacts with an Oracle
database, again, make sure that you pass a DateTimeData, and not the
.TextValue.
Good luck!

Cheers:
Most likely what is happening is that you are using the default date
format of Oracle, and you are sending a four-character year. As follows:
SQL> insert into jimbo values ('01-dec-1997')
2 /
insert into jimbo values ('01-dec-1997')
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01830: date format picture ends before converting entire inputstring
>
Oracle defaults to a format of 'dd-MON-yy'
You can either truncate the year, or manipulate the date to match the standard
database as follows:
insert into jimbo values (to_Date('01-jan-1997', 'DD-MON-YYYY'))
\jimbo

I have another question: Im trying to insert a DATE into an Oracle

So, when I try to insert data.Value or data.textvalue into DB, I

Are there any suggestions?

Date format conversion in BEX query level

Hi ,
We had a date field in the numeric format like 735.020 in the cube level, but when we execute the query the values for thsi date field is changed in to date format like 31.05.2013.
we are not having any conversion routines and the date fields are used directly in the query .

Hi,
Try the below class file or may be create a method in your controller. It will resolve your problem.
package com.XXX.DateFormatForSAP;
import java.util.Date;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
public class FormatSAPDate {
public static String changeDateFormat(Date sapDate) {
String formattedDate = null;
SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy");
formattedDate = dateFormat.format(sapDate);
return formattedDate;
Try this code and let me know.

Problem with date format conversion

Hi All,
I was trying to load from a flat-file to an ods through psa. the file has a date format which is mm/dd/yyyy. i want to convert that to yyyymmdd. i created a custom object ZDAT for this field of type char with length 10. i wrote a code in transfer routine for the conversion as follows:
DATA : ZT1 LIKE SYST-DATUM,
STR1 TYPE STRING,
STR2 TYPE STRING,
STR3 TYPE STRING.
SPLIT TRAN_STRUCTURE-/BIC/ZDAT AT '/'
INTO STR1 STR2 STR3.
CONCATENATE STR3 STR1 STR2 INTO ZT1.
RESULT = ZT1.
it reported error in PSA records while loading aS " Infoobject /BIC/ZDAT does not contain alpa-conforming value 20050321.
P.s: for this record i was abt to load 03/21/2005 to zdat.
thanks,
anitha.

hi anitha!
   ok!
in the transferrules you use the ZDAT as an field for date in transferstructure. but in info source use the 0calday.
so now
    you need to write your routine in the transfer rules for 0calday which can be derived from zdat which can be derived from the zdat.
so your Transfer structure will be same as
   zmid, zmatgrp, zdat, zcid, zloc, zqty
But your Info source must be like
   zmid, zmatgrp, 0calday, zcid, zloc, zqty
and in transfer rule i suggest you to use the following code for the 0calday.
    DATA : ZT1 LIKE SYST-DATUM,
     STR1 TYPE char(2),
     STR2 TYPE char(2),
     STR3 TYPE char(4).
     SPLIT TRAN_STRUCTURE-/BIC/ZDAT AT '/'
     INTO STR1 STR2 STR3.
     CONCATENATE STR3 STR1 STR2 INTO ZT1.
     RESULT = ZT1.
hope it makes things clear....

Date format conversation in OBIEE

Hello guys
I am a quick question about how to stop OBIEE from using to_date conversation? The date format in the db is dd/month/yy, and when I run any report in OBIEE answer using Date columns, it will always convert the format to "dd/mm/YYYY". The sql generated will always have a to_date() in where clause..
Is there a way to not have OBIEE does that and just show the date with format as it is and drop the to_date conversion in SQL?
Thanks

I think you are getting confused here. Oracle's default date format is dd-mon-yyyy. So when you run a query like this:
DATE_COLUMN = '01-Nov-2009'
Oracle applies an IMPLICIT data type conversion to your date string and converts it to a date data type. Whether you allow Oracle to do the implicit conversion or do it explicitly like this DATE_COLUMN = To_date('01-Nov-2009', 'dd-mon-yyyy') should always result in the same query performance. When to TO_DATE functions affect query performance? When you apply the function over the DATE_COLUMN like this:
TO_DATE(DATE_COLUMN, 'dd-mon-yyyy') = '01-Nov-2009'
Why? Because indexes on DATE_COLUMN WILL NOT be used unless you have defined a function level index with a index column using the function: TO_DATE(DATE_COLUMN, 'dd-mon-yyyy'). My guess is that your DATE_COLUMN is not a date but a varchar2, therefore when you pass in To_date('01-Nov-2009', 'dd-mon-yyyy') Oracle does an IMPLICIT conversion of your DATE_COLUMN to DATE data type to match the data type of your where condition hence it is taking long to execute as no indexes are used. Can you confirm what is the exact data type of the DATE_COLUMN you are using to filter on? Do you have an index defined in that column? Can you confirm exactly how is the index is defined? Have you ran statistics on the table AND the indexes as well?

String into date format

Hi
I was wondering if anyone knew how to convert a string into different formats,
to enable it to be stored in a mysql db.
I was wondering anyone you knew how to convert:
- String into the date format yyyy-mm--dd
- String into time format 00:00:00
- string to double
Ive tried:
c_date = java.sql.Date.valueOf(f_date);
System.out.println("conversion data: " +c_date);
c_time = java.sql.Time.valueOf(f_time);
System.out.println(" time converted data: "+c_time);
// string to double conversion
c_change = java.lang.Double.valueOf(f_change);
System.out.println(c_change);
My class doesnt execute this at all?
Also,
SimpleDateFormat sdft = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
c_date = sdft.format(f_date);
System.out.println(c_date);
.. but this method returns the error incompatible types?
Any suggestions would be helpful.. thanks in advance..

Date format conversion in PL/SQL

I have date in database with different formats, the data type of the date in database is 'VARCHAR'. I want to convert the date format to standard format say 'DD-MON-YYYY'.
In database i have different formats of date like 'dd-mon-yyyy',dd/mm/yyyy,dd.mm.yyyy,dd.mm.yy,MON DD,YYYY etc with some other formats also..
Please tel me how to wright a function in pl/sql to convert date in to standard format.
Thanks in advance.

Ooops, which idiot stored dates as strings? That was silly.
You'll have to aim to recognise each format... e.g.
SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf
1 with t as (select 1 as id, '01/02/2008' as dt from dual union all
2             select 2, '14.07.2007' from dual union all
3             select 3, 'APR-21-2007' from dual union all
4             select 4, 'NONSENSE' from dual)
5 -- END OF TEST DATA
6 select id,
7         CASE WHEN regexp_like(substr(dt,3,1), '[\.,\/]') THEN
8              CASE WHEN length(dt) = 8 THEN
9                TO_DATE(dt, 'DD/MM/YY')
10              ELSE
11                TO_DATE(dt, 'DD/MM/YYYY')
12              END
13              WHEN regexp_like(dt, '^([[:alpha:]]){3}-') THEN
14                TO_DATE(dt, 'MON/DD/YYYY')
15         ELSE
16           NULL
17         END as date_dt
18* FROM t
SQL> /
        ID DATE_DT
         1 01/02/2008 00:00:00
         2 14/07/2007 00:00:00
         3 21/04/2007 00:00:00
         4You're problem will come if you actually have dates stored as both DD/MM/YYYY and MM/DD/YYYY type formats because then you won't know if e.g.
01/02/2007
is
1st Feb 2007 or 2nd Jan 2007

Date format conversion from MySQL

Hi my dear friends. I have some problem with the date format.
I am using MySQL version 3, LabSQL and Labview7.1
In the MySQL, the date format reads as 2006-12-18 14-51-25
while, when querying in Labview, it reads 18-Dec-06 14-51-25.
So when using this date (18-Dec-06 14-51-25) to query further. I got problems as MySQL does not recognise this format.
How can I convert 18-Dec-06 to 2006-12-18?
It might sound easier to change but for the year how do I change it to proper 2006, not 1906?
Your solution will be helpful. Thanks in advance.

There probably is a way to do that, but I don't know how. I don't think it is a good idea to change the PC settings in that way because it would interfere with all other programs on the PC. Suppose the user wants the format of date and time to remain the way it is for other programs or looking at file/directory properties.
Rather than basing your functions on the system format settings, use the format string functions within labview that will make the date/time to appear the way you want it to. Look at the format date/time string function on the timing palette. Also, format into string on the string palette.

Date Format Conversion Problem

Hi I am having trouble converting excel files to PDF.
I am in Australia and so we use the date format dd/mm/yyyy.
However when I convert to PDF it changes the date to the American format mm/dd/yyy.
For example if the date in Excel is 07/08/2013 (7th of August 2013) after conversion to PDF it displays as the 08/07/2013 (8th of July 2013).
Can someone please tell me how to get Adobe CreatePDF to convert to the correct date format?

DrClap wrote:
From the API documentation for SimpleDateFormat:
"Text can be quoted using single quotes (') to avoid interpretation."
So your format should be:"yyyy-MM-dd'T'kk:mm:ss.SSz"(Note that I added the "z" at the end to handle the timezone part of your input.)From the description of the OPs problem - that of obtaining the "date" information from an XML file - it seems easier to remove the unwanted characters than to add single quotes where needed.
