Table Date Format
I have a table that contains a rowset from my Oracle database. I am using a date time convertor to present the date and time as '051155Sep06'. I need the month to be represented as SEP, upper case - is there an easy way to do this?
Thanks
Brendan

Bad news, my friend. What you want to do with the date format in the table cannot be done. The format you see in the Timescale bar is simply not an available date option in any table. Sorry.

Table date format - How can I display Week 1, Week 2, instead of the date?
I would like to creat a table for my Gantt, that displays the week number unit, as I have as the middle tier in my timescale on the Gantt side of the view. I cannot find how to do this anywhere. I know I can change the way the date is displayed,
format wise, while in the table edit area, however one of the choices is NOT the week #. The data must exsist as the timescale displays it!
My goal is to creat a table that instead of showing the start date for a task, displaces the start week: i.e. Week 1, Week 2, ...ect.
Any help is appreciated,

Hi.
I was trying to make a simple crosstable report with this structure:
----------Name
ID-------Description
Example:
---------Name1------------Name2-------------Name3
ID1---Description1
ID2----------------Description2
ID3--------------------------------- Description3
But i can't, because it only appears numeric functions for pivot table data
How can i configure pivot table? Why is defined the pivot table data as a numeric field with functions summation, count, ......? Can't i show plain text of the description?
Edited by: user3284194 on 18-abr-2013 4:48Hi,
Try increasing the rangeSize of the iterator to some value like 150?

We migrated Packages from SSIS 2008 to 2012. The Package is working fine in all the environments except in one of our environment.
SSIS 2012 is intermittently failing with below error while importing data from a source table into a Destination table with same exact schema.
Error: 2014-01-28 15:52:05.19

the specified type.".
End Error
But when we reorder the column in "Updated" in Destination table, the package is importing data successfully.
This looks like bug to me, Any suggestion?Hi Mohideen,
Based on my research, the issue might be related to one of the following factors:
Memory pressure. Check there is a memory challenge when the issue occurs. In addition, if the package runs in 32-bit runtime on the specific server, use the 64-bit runtime instead.
A known issue with SQL Native Client. As a workaround, use .NET data provider instead of SNAC.
Hope this helps.

Internal table data 1E2 automatically convert to scientific format
Dear all,
I have been searched for solution moths from the forums and tried all possible methods, but still no way to solve my above problem. I found a way to solve it partially for us, but may be very helpful for others who meet similly case like mine, so I posted here.
my problem is when I export my internal table data to Excel, the Cell data with 1E2 auto becomes 1.00E02, and 1E8 becomes 1.00E08, we need it to be 1E2 and 1E8 in excel.
you can recreate my problem by
1, input 1E2 into your Microsoft Excel, then Enter, it will auto change into scientific format. which is we do not want.
2, use any of your SAP system open any table as long as there is a Char (>3) field in that table. add some
data entry in that field in the form "any amount (<15) of numeric 1 to 9"E"any one or two numeric 1 to 9". such as, 123E2, 1234E12 etc. then save this table's data to local file spread sheet, or use any FM to download it to a Excel file, when you open this
file by Excel, the cell with above form will display as scientific. but
if you put three or more numeric after the "E", such as 123E123 it will
display correctly.
what I have done:
I searched in SCN for similar thread:
Export to Excel 2007 - item number problem
Exceding the limit of numbers in Excel at target side
Excel download cell format problem
Formating as Text in excel through SAP
Converting of amount field into excel file through GUI DOWNLOAD
Data downloaded to excel gets converted to exponential format.
Problem with Excel download and scientific number
Re: Issue in displaying numbers in Excel?
CSV Flat File Data Problem (Number converting to Scientific Notation)
Tested accordingly, But none of these works in our case. because our
ultimate receiver of email attachment will be external third party, we cannot ask
them to change anything in their Excel.
Search Microsoft help about Excel, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/214233,
and it says this "Automatic Number Formatting" is a normal behaviour of excel.
no way to turn it off, the "work-around" way that Microsoft provides is not suitable for our
case.
We test CL_iXML recently arrording to weblog http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Snippets/FormattedExcelasEmailAttachment
it successful controled the format. so this could be a solution for others whose internal table size is small. but our 2MB internal table bocome 6MB when converted to xml file attachment, which cannot be received by our end user's mail box. too big.
So please advise your ideas.
Many thanks in advance!
Peter Ding
Thank you very much for your time!Hi,
You can achieve this by describing the spreadsheet in XML with the help of the DOM classes.
The later releases of Excel can read and save spreadsheets as XML, providing your release supports this you can achieve it.
Check out the following Wiki
[Excel - XML|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/abap/exporting%2bdata%2bto%2bexcel%2b-%2bxml%2bto%2bthe%2brescue]

I am using Oracle 8.1.7. I tried to set the date format by setting the NLS_DATE_FORMAT variable, but it worked for sqlplus only. How can I set it for the Enterprise Manager's Table Editor? Thanks
I guess you have to change that parameter in init.ora file of the database. According to what I know you can not set that format in OEM.

Sending mail with attachment report in Background
Content Author: Fernando Faian
I have read the hint about "Sending mail with attachment report".
It's great, but how can I make this function work in background??
I had that needed last year too. See attachment a function group with two functions. The second one has that functionality to send email or fax (SAP office) with attachment objects in background job using SO_ATTACHMENT_INSERT function.
Pay attention because its working with output list from spool converted to pdf.

Hi All,
I have a flat file which has date field that looks like '2007-08-09 19:04:03.597000000'. I have to create an external table to read the file. I tried giving these two date formats 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss.ff' and 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss.ms'. But none of them works. what should be the date format to be mentioned in external table defnition?
The external table defnition is like
CREATE TABLE EXT_TEST
( "ID" NUMBER(10,0),
"DATE_COL" DATE
ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL
( TYPE ORACLE_LOADER
DEFAULT DIRECTORY "EXT_TAB_DIR"
ACCESS PARAMETERS
( RECORDS DELIMITED BY NEWLINE
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|'
MISSING FIELD VALUES ARE NULL(
ID,
"DATE_COL" DATE "yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss.ff"
LOCATION
( 'test.dat'
REJECT LIMIT UNLIMITED;
ThanksThanks for the help,
I have one more date column and the format is like 1/31/2007 4:03:56 PM. The external table defnition looks like
CREATE TABLE EXT_TEST
( "ID" NUMBER(10,0),
"DATE_COL" DATE
ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL
( TYPE ORACLE_LOADER
DEFAULT DIRECTORY "EXT_TAB_DIR"
ACCESS PARAMETERS
( RECORDS DELIMITED BY NEWLINE
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|'
MISSING FIELD VALUES ARE NULL(
ID,
"DATE_COL" char date_format date mask "M/d/yyyy h:mm:ss tt"
LOCATION
( 'test.dat'
REJECT LIMIT UNLIMITED;
But this again gives an error. Is this the correct date format? -
In table TCURR the Value from field holds the date in the following format 79909771. What does this mean in normal date format?
99999999 - 79909771 = 20090228 = 28/02/2009

DATE format - while defining the table column
Hi Friends,
I came across a piece of code which was applying a TO_DATE() function on a date type column.
I have two tables t1 and t2 and they have col1 and col2 columns respectively of type DATE
t1
col1 DATE
t2
col2 DATEalso there is a variable var1 and is defined as below:
var1 DATE;now I have conditions as below in the code:
AND to_date(t1.col1,'dd/mm/yyyy') = to_date(t2.col2,'dd/mm/yyyy')
AND to_date(t1.col1,'dd/mm/yyyy') = to_date(var1,'dd/mm/yyyy')This code failed on Production with an error: ORA-01861 literal does not match format string
I changed the code to remove TO_DATE() and it worked fine. Dev clarified that they used this function so that if the two columns or variable are in diff date format.,..they can be put in sync.
e.g. if col1 is dd/mm/yyyy and col2 is mm/dd/yyyy then there will be an issue.
My doubt is.. in a given environment if we are creating a table and defining a column of type DATE , or defining a variable of type DATE, can their format be different at any time? I think No.?
In what scenario can the date format be different?
Thanks,Having said that date format is only for display purposes, if you tend to avoid the error without changing the code then you can modify the NLS_DATE_FORMAT parameter at session level.

Date format in create table statement
Hello,
I would like to know if it possible to CREATE TABLE with formated date;
create table months
(id number,
(month_col to_char( month_col,'MM'));so when I insert
insert into months values (1,sysdate); And query
select *from months;
I would get
id months_col
1 04I know this could easily be done by cerating a view on a table, but I was wondering if this was possible to implement directly into table.
I browesed through the documentation, but did not find any datatype that would support this.
Thank you for replies.Personally I would go for using the DATE data type. Using the DATE data type will always ensure that you are actually inserting a date. With a VARCHAR2 or CHAR data type you could insert '27' which is a valid character string but an invalid date.
To display the data the way you want you could either use a view or if you are on a more recent version of Oracle a virtual column.
Hope this helps! -

MagalingamHi,
If you are using the .ctl file to import .CSV files into HANA, the default source date format is YYYYMMDD. However, if say your source format is in the YYYY/MM/DD format for e.g... you can change your IMPORT statement as follows:
IMPORT FROM '<file_location>.ctl' WITH THREADS 16 BATCH 200000 DATE FORMAT 'YYYY/MM/DD';
It is worth noting the SYTAX of the IMPORT statement as you could transform TIME and TIMESTAMP fields similarly:
IMPORT FROM [<file_type>] <file_path> [INTO <table_name>] [WITH <import_from_option
_list>]
<file_type> ::= CSV FILE | CONTROL FILE
<file_path> ::= '<character>...'
<table_name> ::= [<schema_name>.]<identifier>
<import_from_option_list> ::= <import_from_option> | <import_from_option_list> <import_from_option>
<import_from_option> :: =
THREADS <number_of_threads> |
BATCH <number_of_records_of_each_commit> |
TABLE LOCK |
NO TYPE CHECK |
SKIP FIRST <number_of_rows_to_skip> ROW |
COLUMN LIST IN FIRST ROW |
COLUMN LIST ( <column_name_list> ) |
RECORD DELIMITED BY '<string_for_record_delimiter>' |
FIELD DELIMITED BY '<string_for_field_delimiter>' |
OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '<character_for_optional_enclosure>' |
DATE FORMAT '<string_for_date_format>' |
TIME FORMAT '<string_for_time_format>' |
TIMESTAMP FORMAT '<string_for_timestamp_format>' |
Thanks,

Hi Experts,
I have had an excellent experience of getting expert answers here. I am again facing a small issue -
I have a form with a tabl ui element which gets populated with some values from the backend.
One of the field in the table is date. So i have a binding with the table with a node with attributes where one of the fiel in the table is date so is bound with an attribute in that node with date type DATS. Now the requirement of the client is that they want the date field in the table (on the form ) to be displayed in the form of mm/dd/yy and not mm-dd-yy. Right now it is being displayed as
mm-dd-yy. Is there any way to display the field in the table on the form in the form of mm/dd/yy ???
Thanks in advance for the help.see this thread if this helps you [Date format : DD-MMM-YYYY ???|Date format : DD-MMM-YYYY ???]

Hi all,
I'm trying to make my first VB.NET iview and I need some help! I can already display the results of a RFC in a databound table, but now the dates are displayed in YYYMMDD format. How can I change this to a .NET date (DD/MM/YYYY)?
Thanks!
LiesbethWhat you want to do is a kind of fomating the data in the cells. One possible way is to subscribe to the ItemDatabound event of the Table and format the contents of the cell accordingly:
Private Function ReformatDate(ByVal format As String)
Return format.Substring(6, 2) + "/" + format.Substring(4, 2) + "/" + format.Substring(0, 4)
End Function
Private Sub Table1_ItemDatabound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As SAP.Web.UI.Controls.Table.ItemEventArgs) Handles Table1.ItemDatabound
Dim dateView As TextView = CType(e.Item.Cells(DateColumnIndex).TableCellContent, TextView)
dateView.Text = ReformatDate(dateView.Text)
End Sub
DateColumnIndex is the index of the column that has the date field.
There is an even easier tricky way to do it: If you databind the table at design-time, the framwork creates databinding expressions for the TextViews in the cells that look like
Text='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.Parent, "DataSourceRow.DataItem.Fldate") %>'
You can change this to contain your formatting function, e.g.
Text='<%# ReformatDate(CType(DataBinder.Eval(Container.Parent, "DataSourceRow.DataItem.Fldate"), string) %>'
You can change the expression either in HTML view or usign the DataBindings property editor of the cell's TextView. In this case of cause you don't need the Table1_ItemDatabound event handler.
