Subtract   two dates to get   months and days

I havew to subtract two dates and get the differnce ,
          Date issuedDate= myobj.getIssueDate();
          Date expirationDate=DateUtils.addMonths(issuedDate, 6);
          long timeDiff=expirationDate.getTime()-new Date().getTime();
          long daysRemaning=timeDiff/86400000;this is code I get the number of days between the issue date and todays date.now my client wants not just days but months and days , i need suggestions on how to get days and months between any two given dates

I have read that it is best to use java.util.Calendar for almost any time related issue.
With some switch statements and a for loop, I think the Calendar class could solve the problem.

  • Any F.Module is there to get  'Month and day '  from the given input number

    Hi experts,
        I am working on Inventory withdrawl report and in the selection screen, If i enter the CHARG (Batch number) then  I need to display the posting date by default in the next selection input based on the Batch number.
    In the selection screen :
    Batch : 7111WF0211.
    Posting Date :  (I need to display by default based on batch number).
    My requirement is,  in the above Batch first digit '7' is the year.
    And  from 2nd to 4th digit. i.e., 111. I need to find out month and day from 111.
    I mean from  1 to 365 days, In which day and which month '111' will come ?
    Please send me the code or suitable Function Module. Your help will be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Ranji.

    Use FM ADD_TIME_TO_DATE
    Do this
    days = batch+1(3).
    days = days - 1.
    Call Function 'ADD_TIME_TO_DATE'
    exporting
    i_idate = '01.01.2008'
    i_time = days
    i_iprkz = 'D'
    importing
    o_idate = date_p_d
    You will get the date in date_p_d.
    But what about Leap years? IS the first number the year?
    IF so pass in i_idate the first of january of that year so you get the correct day depending if it is a leap year or not

  • Date separate year, month and day

    Hello everyone and thanks in advance, I'm new to this and the truth is not doing this.
    Well, I have a PDF with several pages which I designed and has been asking me in a complete date in the format dd / mm / yy and subsequent pages he asks me the same date of birth but in 3 separate fields, day , month and year. I want you when you enter the date the first copy and separate day month and year in others. I tried this but I get
    var array_datesol = datesol.split("/")
    var year = parseInt(array_datesol[2]);
    var month = parseInt(array_datesoll[1]);
    var day = parseInt(array_datesol[0]);
    this.getField('yearsol').value = year;
    this.getField('monthsol').value = month;
    this.getField('daysol').value = day;
    where is the initial field datesol date and year, month and day where they have to be separately
    thanks in advance

    Are you getting any errors in the JavaScript debugging console?
    You are using the syntax for the 'Custom JavaScript calculation' and this syntax can not be used in the 'simplified field notation. Also you can not use any JavaScript properties, objects, functions, control statments.
    When run in the console, I find you have a misspelling of the variable name 'datesol'. I also do not see where you are initializing the value for 'datesol'.
    var datesol = event.valueAsString;  // get value of this field
    var array_datesol = datesol.split("/") ; // make into an array
    this.getField('yearsol').value =array_datesol[2];  // get element year
    this.getField('monthsol').value = array_datesol[1];  // get month element - fixed variable name
    this.getField('daysol').value = array_datesol[0]; // get date element
    I would use one of the following so the other fields are only updated when a date has been entered and the leading zeros are displayed:
    this.getField('yearsol').value = '';
    this.getField('monthsol').value = '';
    this.getField('daysol').value = '';
    if(event.value != '') {
    // get parts of date and print with leading zeros
    var datesol = event.value;  // get value of this field
    var array_datesol = datesol.split('/') ; // make into an array
    this.getField('yearsol').value = util.printf('%,304.0f', array_datesol[2]);  // get element year
    this.getField('monthsol').value = util.printf('%,302.0f', array_datesol[1]);  // get month element - fixed variable name
    this.getField('daysol').value = util.printf('%,302.0f', array_datesol[0]); // get date element
    // or
    this.getField('yearsol').value = '';
    this.getField('monthsol').value = '';
    this.getField('daysol').value = '';
    if (event.value != '') {
    // get date parts and print with leading zeros
    var oDatesol = util.scand('dd/mm/yyyy', event.value); // get date object
    this.getField('yearsol').value = util.printf('%,302.0f',oDatesol.getFullYear());  // get element year
    this.getField('monthsol').value = util.printf('%,302.0f', oDatesol.getMonth() + 1);  // get month element - fixed variable name
    this.getField('daysol').value = util.printf('%,302.0f', oDatesol.getDate()); // get date element
    // or
    this.getField('yearsol').value = '';
    this.getField('monthsol').value = '';
    this.getField('daysol').value = '';
    if(event.vaue != '') {
    // get parts of date and format
    var oDatesol = util.scand('dd/mm/yyyy', event.value); // get date object
    this.getField('yearsol').value = util.printd('yyyy', oDatesol); // get element year
    this.getField('monthsol').value = util.printd('mm', oDatesol); // get month element - fixed variable name
    this.getField('daysol').value = util.printd('dd', oDatesol); // get date element
    If you are going to fill other field, you will need to use the '.valueAsStriing' property or '.toString()'  method to retain the leading zeros.

  • Get Months and Days -- Problem with months_between

    Hi,
    For a report, I need to convert days as months and days for eg 370 days as 12 months 5 days.
    I tried below query
    with t as (
    select
    maturity_date - value_date tenor
    from account_master)
    select
    trunc(mod(months_between(trunc(sysdate,'YYYY')+ tenor,trunc(sysdate,'YYYY')),30)) month,
    (trunc(sysdate,'YYYY')+tenor)-add_months(trunc(sysdate,'YYYY'),trunc(months_between(trunc(sysdate,'YYYY')+ tenor,trunc(sysdate,'YYYY')))) "day"
    from t
    And i am getting output as
    MONTH day
    11 30
    23 30
    11 30
    1 5
    11 30

    As you can see for 365 days i am getting Months as 11 and days as 30
    and for 730 days i am getting months as 23 and days as 30.
    I want 365 days as 12 months and 0 days.
    I think it is months_between function that is creating this problem.
    Can anyone suggest another way of accomplishing this?
    Thanks and Regards
    Amit Trivedi

    2008 is a leap year! so it's 366 days long. therefore, 365 days is really only 11 months and 30 days (if you start counting from Jan 01, which is what you are doing).
    so the number of months and days between is dependent on the starting date (consider a range of 30 days starting on Jan 01, Feb 01 (leap year), Feb 01 (non-leap year) and Apr 01).
    so:
    with t as (
    select maturity_date - value_date tenor, value_date d1 from account_master
    select
    trunc(months_between(d1+ tenor,d1)) months,
    d1+tenor - add_months(d1,trunc(months_between(d1+ tenor,d1),30)) days
    from t
    or better yet:
    select
    trunc(months_between(maturity_date,value_date)) months,
    maturity_date - add_months(value_date,trunc(months_between(maturity_date,value_Date))) days
    from account_master

  • Months and days between dates

    What is the formula to find the months and days between dates

    Tricky... The first problem is the intended result. Months have a varying number of days in them, days and weeks have set values. For example the difference between 1st July and 1st September is 2 months but this does not give an accurate count of the number of days (61).
    It would be better to calculate the number of days difference and forget the months.
    You would need a lookup table showing a numeric value for each date that would show each date with a day value from a starting point. If your earliest date is 01/01/2000 then that would be day zero. Then using the lookup table calculate the day value for your beginning and end dates. Subtract one from the other to get the number of days.
    If all your dates are from this year:
    You can create your own Cell Format (call it day of the year) Select the Type: Date & Time
    drag the icon for Day of Year into the box and delete the others.
    Convert your dates to this new Format, subtract one value from the other to get the number of days difference.

  • To find months and days between 2 dates

    For Eg.

    That's not a good idea though.  Be considering every month as 30 days, then comparisons over larger date ranges (years) will be out by more and more days the larger the difference gets.
    Your example is also wrong.
    For Eg.
    Date-1 : 25-Aug-2013
    Date-2 : 23-Oct-2013
    If we consider every month as 30 days it should give
    25-Aug-2013 to 30-Aug-2013 = 6 days
    01-Sep-2013 to 30-Sep-2013 = 1 Month
    23-Oct-2013 to 30-Oct-2013 =   8 days
    The last one should be:
    01-Oct-2013 to 23-Oct-2013 = 23 days
    giving a result of 1 month and 29 days.
    Oracle provides a months_between function to do the calculation.
    SQL> select months_between(date '2013-10-23', date '2013-08-25') from dual;
    MONTHS_BETWEEN(DATE'2013-10-23',DATE'2013-08-25')
                                           1.93548387
    But of course, because the number of days in a month varies, it's not exacly known what the decimal part of the number represents.
    However, if you combine methods, using months_between to get the months, and then assume 30 days for a month to get the days part from the remainder, it's more consistent over longer periods...

  • Acrobat Pro XI transposes numbers for month and day in dates when saving optimized pdf to Excel spreadsheet.

    Problem: numbers in some random dates are  transposed so that month and day are reversed.  No particular pattern to these errors.  Only fix we've found is to go through and manually check and correct the date errors - there are hundreds of these errors in the document so this is not a good solution.
    (Note: Excel columns with dates are specified as "date" fields. All dates are formatted as m/d/yy)

  • Leading zeros for Month and Day in filename.

    Hello,
    I am in Jdev 10.1.3.3.0
    One of my requirement is to have a file name concatenated with current month and day (example: <filename><02><23>).
    Used the xpath as following and returns an output as *'filename223'*:
    concat('filename',xp20:month-from-dateTime(ora:getCurrentDate()),xp20:day-from-dateTime(ora:getCurrentDate()),'.txt')
    what changes I need to make in my Xpath to get the file name as *'filename0223'*
    Thanks in advance!
    Regards,
    Rakesh

    I was googling on the date format used in BPEL to achieve various format types. Specially I was searching for my requirement : <filename><current month with leading zeros if month is single digit><current day with leading zeros if day is single digit>(ie. if the month is february and day is 23rd, then my filename should be *<filename><02><23>*).
    I found a link which helped solving my problem :
    http://plane.javaeye.com/blog/161316
    I changed my Xpath to :

  • Difference between 2 dates in form of years,months and days.

    Hi friends,
      i need one function module for finding difference between 2 dates and the output is
    no. of years
    no.of months
    no. of days.
    it means the input is begin date and end date
    output is no.of years,no.of months and no.of days.
    for example begin date is today i.e., 08/02/2008 (dd/mm/yyyy) and end date is 07/03/2008 then the output is
    no.of years -
      0,
    no.of months----
      1,
    no.of days----
      0.
    and one more example if begin date 08/02/2008
    (dd/mm/yyyy) and end date is 01/02/2008 then the output is
    no.of years -
    0,
    no.of months----
      0,
    no.of days----
    -7..
    Please help me it's very urgent

    Hi,
    Use FM HR_AUPBS_MONTH_DAY.
    It Calculate the years, months, days & cal days between 2 dates.
    Hi,
    The FM is 'FIMA_DAYS_AND_MONTHS_AND_YEARS'
    Check the following example:
    DATA: EDAYS LIKE VTBBEWE-ATAGE,
    EMONTHS LIKE VTBBEWE-ATAGE,
    EYEARS LIKE VTBBEWE-ATAGE.
    PARAMETERS: FROMDATE LIKE VTBBEWE-DBERVON,
    TODATE LIKE VTBBEWE-DBERBIS DEFAULT SY-DATUM.
    call function 'FIMA_DAYS_AND_MONTHS_AND_YEARS'
    exporting
    i_date_from = FROMDATE
    i_date_to = TODATE
    I_FLG_SEPARATE = ' '
    IMPORTING
    E_DAYS = EDAYS
    E_MONTHS = EMONTHS
    E_YEARS = EYEARS.
    WRITE:/ 'Difference in Days ', EDAYS.
    WRITE:/ 'Difference in Months ', EMONTHS.
    WRITE:/ 'Difference in Years ', EYEARS.
    INITIALIZATION.
    FROMDATE = SY-DATUM - 60.
    Also You can write your own function module for this..
    just extract day and month and year from the two dates and then get the difference.
    suppose date 1 - y1m1d1
    date 2 = y2m2d2
    data : y1(2) type n,
    m1(2) type n,
    d1(2) type n,
    y2(2) type n,
    m2(2) type n,
    d2(2) type n,
    y1 = date1(4).
    m1 = date1+4(2).
    d1 = date1+6(2).
    y2 = date2(4).
    m2 = date2+4(2).
    d2 = date2+6(2).
    then get the differnce between years and days and months and store them in ur variables
    Reward Points if found helpfull..
