hi i m new member of this group.

how can i find the number of day between start date and end date.

All you need to do is subtract them. The ABAP runtime will take care of the rest.

Data: number_of_days type i,
      begin_date type sy-datum,
      end_date type sy-datum.

numbers_of_days = end_date - begin_date.

Hi Amarendra,

Welcome to SDN>

Use Function : DAYS_BETWEEN_TWO_DATES

or use Rich's logic as

No.of days = LAstdate - Startdate.

Amrendra ,

Alternatively you can use function module SD_DATETIME_DIFFERENCE that could also provide you the time difference apart from date difference.

Amrendra ,

If you are only looking for number of working days between two date using some factory calendar here is one more idea.

call function 'RKE_SELECT_FACTDAYS_FOR_PERIOD'

exporting

i_datab = starting date

i_datbi = ending date

i_factid = 'US'

tables

eth_dats = it_eth_dats.

You need to pass starting date , end date & factory id as input to the function module . The output would contain all the working days in between according to the factory calendar id supplied to the function module.

after you get the output table populated , You can describe the same to get number of days in between those dates for that factory calendar.
