"valid from" date field in TCURR

Hi All,
I was looking out the Valid from field in TCURR table but couldn't figure out the format of the way the dates are stored in SAP for this field. Here is how they looked:
Valid from
80039898
80039898
80039898
79929778
I tried to change the format in excel after downloading the table but that didn't help much.
All answers will be duly rewarded with points.
Thanks,
N

Hi Nandita,
Dear Nandita,
The dates are just stored as "inverted dates"
This is even implemented as pure ABAP statements:
CONVERT date to inverted date ... and
CONVERT inverted date to date.
See the documentation on these keywords. It is just the 9er complement of the real date, example from your question ( 80039898):
99999999
-19960101
80039898 => value for GDATU.
Please assign points if it useful.

Business partner change Valid From Date field

How can I change the Valid From Date field in tables:
BUT000
BUT020
BUT0BK
BUT100
Currently the of date of creation of the business partner is in this tables' Valid From field.
In transaction BP the Address of the Business Partner is valid from 01.01.1990 but still I get a warning that the business partner is not valid for date 01.11.2011.

Sounds like the problem is the valid to date. What is that date set to?

Dump in user exist CC01 to set default value to valid from date

Dear friends,
Task is to set default value to valid from date field in Transaction "CC01".
In INCLUDE ZXCCAU01 of Function 'EXIT_SAPMC29C_001' in Enhancement 'PCCD0001' I written the code like this
DATA var LIKE sy-datum.
var = var + 1.
which is not related to program by creating project and activated the project.
When I run cc01 it is giving dump.
Error is :
Program "SAPLXCCA" tried to use screen 1000.
The screen does not exist.
Can some one guide me What is the problem and How to resolve this.
If not, Is there any other method this can be done.
Regards,
Venkat

Hi venkat,
DATA var LIKE sy-datum.
var = var + 1.
the code u written i guess not ok.The code used by kishan is correct. i.e
DATA var LIKE sy-datum.
sy-datum = sy-datum + 1.
var = sy-datum.
write var.
use the above code.
SAPLXCCA is a functionpool not a program.please check the same.

X-distr.chain status in combination with valid from date

Hello I am using MM02 X-distr.chain status in combination with valid from date, to give materials a certain status in the sales order depending on the delivery date of the orderline.
How can I enter multiple statuses with future validation dates?
example following status with validation dates where entered in MM02 for a material
- material should have status A valid from January
- material should have status B valid form April
- material should have status C valid from July
- material should have status D valid from September
When I enter a sales order with delivery date in January system replies with status C.
When I enter a sales order with delivery date in April system replies with status C .
When I enter a sales order with delivery date in July system replies with status C .
When I enter a sales order with delivery date in September system replies with status D.
So only the current ( or previous status when current is not valid yet) is retained by the system.
How could multiple statuses be used?
Thanks in advance
Joos

Hello Jalo,
Thanks for your reply,
My customer sell season relevant materials so they want to control order entry and delivery creation based on predefined dates.
Status A = material is blocked for order entry and delivery creation
Status B = material is allowed for order entry, delivery creation is blocked
Status C = material is allowed for order entry and delivery creation.
Status D = material is blocked for order entry, delivery creation is allowed.
I had hoped to use standard functionality with this status field, it meets most of my customers requirements but at this moment the only alternative is to create a new table where this data can defined and create some abap logic in the user exit to set the status base on the table information.

Valid from date in ECM and BOM.

Hi All,
I create a Change master with release key and assign a material as an object whose BOM will be changed. I save the Change number.
I go to change BOM main screen of the same material and enter the change number created, by default the valid from date comes as todays date. But when i hit enter to go inside the change BOM screen then the date dissapears from the field and i get an error as "please enter valid from date" even if the date of ECN is valid and that of BOM is also valid.
Can somebody help in this?
Thanks
Shailesh.

Shailesh,
While creating the BOM have you used the change number ...? if yes then display that change number and check wheather do you have any alternative date mention in it.
check validity date of change number as well as BOM validity.
another reason can be you need to apply SAP note 1278790.

Component - Change valid from date

Hi Experts,
I am using function module CRM_IBASE_COMP_CHANGE to change the component data. I am able to make all the required changes in the component except valid from date. Even though I am specifying it in VALFR of the structure IBAP_COMP3
Can you suggest me how do I change the valid from date of the component.
Regards,
Abdullah

Hi Abdullah,
Valid-from date cannot be modified. If you go to IBase Display or if you create a new IBase with one Component, then you can observe there, that Valid-from date is only a Display field which takes current date by default (during creation) and not an input field. Hence i think you cannot modify.
Thanks,

Dear Sankarbabu,
IF there's no setting for Date Check in OS54 - Engineering Change Management
Control Data,then you can create a change number with past dates,and also to
use the same one for changing BOM.
Tell me one thing you are saying you want to use ECM.Was the earlier one
created without BOM was created without an ECN?
See already if you have created your BOM with an ECN,then remove the date
check setting which I have mentioned in OS54.
Now goto T code CC02 ,enter the Change number and give the valid from date as
01.10.2007.
After that check in CS03 whether this date(01.10.2007)is getting reflected or not.
I'm sure this will solve your problem.

Updating Cube in the End Routine based on the incoming Valid From Date

Hello Experts
Here is my scenario.
We are using BW 7.x. There is DSO and from DSO it goes to the Cube, the promotions information. These data targets will have Material (Article), Plant (Site), Promotions Number, Valid from and Valid to dates. The Valid To date will come in as 12/31/9999 all the time.
If I receive a new record from ECC with same Material, Plat and Promotion combination again, I need to get the Valid From Date from the new record and Update the existing record' Valid To date in DSO/Cube as Valid From of the new record - 1.
So Valid To date of the existing record = New Record's Valid From date minus - 1.
I would like to do the update in "End Routine" of the Cube.
Would you please suggest if this can be done and if so would you please provide the sample code.
THANK YOU in Advance.
Nag.

yes, you can do this...
just use a RESULT_PACKAGE in end routine.
and using RESULT_PACKAGE fatch the existing records from DSO and append that into RESULT_PACKAGE after your desired changes,
just try to create a code using this l;ogic. if you can't then i will provide you a code.

IDOC BOMMAT: Wrong validity-from dates for components

Hi all,
I am currently loading BOMs via IDOC BOMMAT for a data migration project. Unfortunately I am having problems to load the BOMs with the correct validity-from date for components. The data is correct when I check in LSMW, but after the load of the IDOCs the validity-from date of each component is the same as the validity date of the BOM header!
System Version is SAP 4.7.
Thanks for your help and Best Regards
H.

Has anybody any ideas?
Thanks a lot!

Deriving Time Characteristics from Date fields in ODS View

Hi,
I am creating ODS Views using HANA calculation views.
is there any direct approach to derive time characteristics like cal week, cal quarter, cal month, calmonth 2, fiscal year, cal year etc from date fields?
work around:
Deriving them in HANA view in calculated columns and mapping them to IO created with respective time characteristics as reference.
is there any standard and easy to use approach for this??
Thanks in advance.

Hi Ravi,
Insteod deriving them in the ODS view you can derive them in tha Calculation View in SAP HANA itself using Time Dimention concept.

Rip of year from date field

I have a question. I want to rip of the year from date field. For e.g if date is 01/02/2006 I want just the 01/02 which month and date. I tried to use substr function but it;s giving weird result. I used substr(date, 0,5) but not working. Please suggest.

If it is a DATE column/variable it is conventional to use TO_CHAR with an appropriate date format, in your case TO_CHAR (date_column, 'MM/YY').

VALID FROM DATE IN EQUIPMENT CREATION

Hi PM experts
Im new to PM ,While creating Equipment which date should we use in VALID FROM and what is use of this date.
Regards
ek

ek s
Valid from date is the date on which the Equipment was installed at the location.
Keeping this date as installation date ensures that all the activities executed on machine are recorded in the system from that date.
One of the use of this date is, we can maintain the history as to when the machine was installed at the location (In Equipment Usage).
Secondly, the valid from date is used to restrict the creation of Maintenance order for that particular Equipment. For ex: If you have mentioned Equipment Valid from date as 01.03.2015, and you try to create Maintenance order of this Equipment with date as 01.02.2015, it will give an error that Equipment is not valid (or active) for that particular period.
Hope this reply helps.

Valid From Date in CT04

Hi,
We are on ECC 6.0. When I try to create a Characteristics in CT04, the Valid From date defaults to the System Date. If I change this date to any other date in the past, it saves the system date only.
How do I make the Valid From date to something else?
Regards,

Dear Shameek,
why do you want to create the characteristics for a past date?
This is possible by creating a change number in CC01 with the valid from date as say 01.07.2011 and include the check box for
characteristics in the object type(active) and use the change number in CT04 and check the results.
But the drawback in this procedure is the system always expects a change number during the next change for that
characteristics.
Check and revert back.
