Hi,
OMG! How bizzarre, another quirk of the "Region Fortmats" setting.
*Settings > General > International > Region Format*
If I set mine to U.K. (where I happen to live), Monday is apparently the first day of the week on the calendar and I have no 12/24 hour clock option.
If set to U.S., Sunday is the first day and the 12/24 hour clock option is available.
I guess changing the Region is your answer.
How odd! Not to say irritating.

How to get the First day in a Week in a Fiscal Year

Hi guys,
I have a Requirement to calculate the First day in a Week in a Fiscal year .
The FM GET*FIRST_DATE and all are for Calender year.
Is there any FM to calculate the First in a Week in a Fiscal year.
For eg. They will give 200826.
In this 26 is the Week.
I need to find the First date value in that Week.
Thanks,
Gokul

Hi Gokul...
Instead of using the funtion module you can just write the 3 statements of code to get the first day of the week.
Its similar to the above one but instead of writing case statement you can achive the following.
data : w_res type i,
w_data type d,
w_res = w_date mod 7.
w_date = w_date - w_res.
write w_date.
This works.

Icloud calendar not on correct day when in Week or Month view

Hi icloud calendar highlights a day behind, I almost forgot to pay a bill due as calendar was showing yesterdays date highlighted when viewed in Week or Month view! and assumed the bill was due tomorrow but of course it's due today!
It's correct when it displays the DAY, but not week or month. (In week or month view ithighlights the Tuesday) How can I get ical to show the correct date and highlight this?
For the record I assume its becasue I live in NZ and are ahead of the US. Since all my computers and phones etc automatically change and display ot the date correctly, how come this calendar in icloud doesn't?
I'm logging on through a mac at work which has todays (Wednesday 11th April) set fine, but when I view the ical in it's month or week view, it highlights today as being Tuesday! Is this a bug or is there a fix?
cheers
confused kiwi

I fixed the issue myself, by editing my name on the icloud initial page. Changed the time setting from Pacific to New Zealand. This appears to have solved the issue for me. Who new it was in there?

How to set the First Day of the week in OBIEE 11g

In OBIEE 10g, there was a timeline.pcxml , that allowed you to change the First Day of a week (Default Sunday) to monday etc etc..
Where can we find the same in OBIEE 11g ?
Thank you ,
Smrithy

There are probably several ways. We have a universe string object named "Month" which is in the format "YYYY" then "M" and the month number. For instance any date in June 2010 would have in this object:
2010M06
So we made this variable in Webi for [First Day of Month]:
=ToDate(Right([Query1].[Month];2) + "-01-" +Left([Query1].[Month];4);"MM-dd-yyyy")
Hope that helps.

How to get first day of calendar week ?

hi,
i'm storing some calendar weeks in my database. for example 30/2013.
How can i get the first day of this week (monday)? in this case it is 22.07.2013
thx
Anja

As far as I know we don't have a function that converts week of a year into date. So you can try something like this.
SQL> with t
2 as
3 (
4 select '30/2013' week_year
5    from dual
6 )
7 select min(dt) week_start_day
8    from (
9           select (level - 1) + to_date('01-01-' || substr(week_year, -4), 'dd-mm-yyyy') dt
10                , week_year
11             from t
12          connect
13               by level <= to_date('31-12-' || substr(week_year, -4), 'dd-mm-yyyy') -
14                            to_date('01-01-' || substr(week_year, -4), 'dd-mm-yyyy') +1
15         )
16   where to_number(to_char(dt, 'iw')) = to_number(substr(week_year, 1, instr(week_year, '/')-1));

Changing the calendar settings: Sunday as the first day of the week

Dear Masters of SAP universe,
In ECC6.0, I am using a LIS info-structure with the period split set to week.
I would like to know how can I change the calendar settings in order to consider Sunday as the first day of the week, instead of Monday.
For example:
A sales order created on Dec 12th creates the record 201049 in the info structure S900 - SPWOC.
I would like to have it as 201050, where 50 is the currently week in the system.
I already checked OSS notes and the transaction SCAL for customizing. But I did not find a solution this issue.
Your help is highly appreciated!

hi,
this seems to be a calendar issue.
please check for OSS also - 1158474.

How to return the week number starting from Sunday as the first day

Hi Friends,
My application needs to have a report for the weekly totals and must have the Sunday as the first day for the week. For example, January of 2005 should be in the report for having six weeks, Jan 1 is Saturday, this is week 1, Week 2 is from 2 to 8, and the last week , week 6 has 30 and 31. Days need not be displayed, only the week number as follows:
Week Number Total Sales
=========== =========
Week 1 8,525
Week 2 8,168
Week 3
Week 4
Week 5
Week 6
The discoverer hierarchies function for week (eul_date_trunc(item_date, '"W"W')) seems to start the week from the first day of the month regardless of the day. Oracle function TO_CHAR(item_date, 'W') does the same thing, .As the result, the January of 2005 has only 5 weeks.
Any help or advice for this issue will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much,
J.K

Try this
---------------------------------------------actual formula---------------
select ceil(
( to_number(to_char(to_date('1-'||to_char(sysdate,'MON-YYYY'),'DD-MON-YYYY'),'D')) -1
+ to_number(to_char(sysdate,'DD'))
) / 7
week_number
from dual
e.g try different dates below by replacing 31-Jan-2005
select ceil(
( to_number(to_char(to_date('1-'||to_char(to_date('31-JAN-2005'),'MON-YYYY'),'DD-MON-YYYY'),'D') ) -1
+ to_number(to_char(to_date('31-JAN-2005'),'DD'))
) / 7
week_number
from dual
How does it work
week number is calculated by dividing the current day number by number of days
so in your case if the week starts at a different day , you just add the offset and divide by 7
In the first part, i am finding the week day number for the 1st day of the current month and this is used as offset.
Hope this helps

Setting the first day of the week

Hi,
Is there any other place in Mac OS X where I could set system's first day of the week, except iCal? In iCal it's set to Sunday, but in OmniFocus mini calendars show Monday as the first day of the week, although even there in OmniFocus preferences I've set it to use Sunday as the first day of the week. Developer says that OmniFocus is using system's settings, but nowhere in my system (except iCal) I can find where I could set the first day of the week. I have set English as the default language and order of list sorting in the International settings. Any ideas or suggestions?

Unless it is set with the Country in the International preferences, I don't think their tech support knows what they are talking about. However, if that is where it would be set, you should be able to override it with the custom settings, but you can't.
I'd ask them to tell you where that gets set, or is stored. Ask them what system call is used to get that value. My guess is they won't be able to tell you.

United Kingdom Regional Format sets Monday as the first day of the week.

With the Region Settings (Settings -> General -> International -> Region Format) set to United Kingdom, Calendar displays Monday as the first day of the week. I have seen other posts whereby it was suggested to change to US Internationalization but this will also change the date and telephone number formats to US settings, far more frustrating.
Have I been sheltered from properly formatted calendars all my life or is this a mistake and it should start the week on Sunday. It is consistent in both the Week and Month view.
Am I crazy or does anyone else agree with is?

Same here. One of the first things I do in this sort of application is switch week start to Mondays.

Can I change the first day of the week on my ipod touch

I have a new Ipod touch, which i recently upgraded to OS 3.0. I was wondering if it is possible to set the first day of the week in Ical to Sunday instead of Saturday?
Thanks

The International Region Format controls the start day of your calendar display. UK region format sets the display to start on Monday. US region format will start the calendar on Sunday. However, that setting also controls your date, time and phone number formats, so using it would only cause you more problems.
Tell Apple you want the option to set the calendar week start independent of the international region format using the feedback page. http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html

Changing the first day-of-the-week on the MyTimesheets app

IN the SAP ECC and Portal implementations of the timesheet app, we were recently able to change the display so the first day of the week is listed as Monday, rather than Sunday. I would like to do the same thing with Fiori.
That is, when the app starts up the first view a calendar view of the whole month. If a person wants to enter time manually, they click the button labeled "manual" and a data entry screen pops up. The first day of the week listed across the top is Sunday, which does not reflect our settings in ECC. We need the 1st day of the week to be Monday.
Is there a configuration change we can make to force the 1st day of the week to be Monday, as it is in ECC?
thanks for your help!
-Rob Solomon

Hi Rob,
Are you using Wave2 app? You could change the setting for first day of the week in CAC1 and Fiori Timesheet app will adjust te calendar accordingly.
Nothing needs to be done for Fiori app.
Please update UIX01HCM to SP03 if you are using Wave2 app?
Best Regards

Want to make Monday as the first day of the week in GregorianCalendar. how?

hi
I need to know what day is the first of the month is. for example the 1st of Nov 2004 is Moday and 1st of Dec 2004 is saturday.
I am using the GregorianCalendar:
1. GregorianCalendar calendar = new GregorianCalendar(2004,11,1); //set date to 1st Nov 2004
2. int firstDay = calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);now firstDay is 2. This is because the week starts from Sunday, so Monday is the 2nd day.
But I am in Uk and my Uk Calendar shows monday as the first day (even in Windows 2000 Calendar).
I would like the GregorianCalendar to have Monday as the first day of the week, so that the
int firstDay = calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
returns 1 in the above case.
I also tried adding
calendar.setFirstDayOfWeek(Calendar.MONDAY); just between line 1 and line 2, but it did not help.
This is because i don't want to manually subtract 1. If i manually subtract one, then the program might not work in other locale and timezones.
Also if I subtract 1, then for 1 Feb 2004,
int firstDay = calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
will return 1 as 1st Feb 2004 falls on Sunday. so if i subtract 1 it will be 0, so I have to do a extra checking for 0.
Is there anyway to make the Calendar have Monday as the first day of the week??

hi
I need to know what day is the first of the month is.Why does this matter? Since we know that 1 == Sunday and 2 == Monday... Why do you need Monday to be == 1? and couldn't you just subtract 1 if it's so important?
for example the 1st of Nov 2004 is Moday and 1st of
Dec 2004 is saturday.
I am using the GregorianCalendar:
1. GregorianCalendar calendar = new

How do I change the first day of the week in calendar?

I recently updated to ios 5.
unfortunately, this made sunday day one of the week in calendar, not Monday which is my preference (and the convention in Australia).
I was able to change it to Monday by changing international settings to UK, but this changed other settings such as uk version of google as default search engine, which I would prefer to avoid.
Is there a way to make Monday the first day of the week in calendar AND keep my other international settings as Australia?
Many thanks for suggestions.
Chris.

I don't think you can. Your best bet is to send Apple feedback and ask for that functionality.

Is there any way to change the first day of the week back to Monday in iCal for iPhone?

With the new upgrade, iCal in my iphone is now showing Sunday as the first day of the week.
Is there a way to change it back to Monday as the first day of the week?

Hi! The only way I know of is changing the screen resolution. Tom

Moving a GregorianCalendar to the first day of the week

I'm using a GregorianCalendar class in order to get the time stamp for the nearest Sunday's date.
here's what I'm trying to do:
1. get a timeStamp and set it into a date
Date startDate = new Date(startTime);2. create a new GregorianCalendar using the above date as the start time.
GregorianCalendar calendar = new GregorianCalendar((startDate.getYear()+1900),startDate.getMonth(),startDate.getDate());3. the tricky part: make sure the calnedar's date is set to Sunday, if the current date is on any day other then Sunday, I will have to move it back to the nearest Sunday. I'm trying to do this by using:
calendar.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK, 0); for some reason this does not work...
am I doing anything wrong here?

thanks for that info but the problem is still there. here's some more input:
//creating the date, the ts here is 1153858800000 which is the dated in 7/25/2006
Date startDate = new Date(startTime);
//creating the new calendar
GregorianCalendar calendar = new GregorianCalendar((startDate.getYear()+1900),startDate.getMonth(),startDate.getDate());
//setting the calendar to the first hour (not sure it necessary)
calendar.set(Calendar.HOUR, 1);
//setting the calendar to the first day of the week
calendar.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK, 1);
//this returns 1153778400000 which is still dated 7/25/2006 whic is a Tuesday I would expect it to returns a different date
calendar.getTimeInMillis()
