How to get Users laptop Time and date in ABAP ?

[Former Member]

sy-uzeit is the system time

sydatum is the system date

I know this, i don't want this i need the time in your laptop. The one on the most right bottom with the date and time.

Does anyone know this ?

Check these fields:

SY-DATLO -  Local Date for Current User

SY-TIMLO - Local Time of Current User

no this doesn't give me what i want. I want the laptop time of the user. Our application server is based in different location and this follows the server's OS date/time not the client date/time

[pranay570708]

Check below code:

DATA:L_TIME  TYPE T,

      L_DATE  TYPE SY-DATUM,

      L_TZONE TYPE TTZDATA-TZONE,

      L_TSTMP TYPE TIMESTAMP.

CONVERT DATE SY-DATUM

         TIME SY-UZEIT

    INTO TIME STAMP L_TSTMP TIME ZONE SY-ZONLO.

CALL FUNCTION 'TZON_LOCATION_TIMEZONE'     "Get current country's timezone

   EXPORTING

     IF_COUNTRY        = 'IN'  "----> Pass country key here

   IMPORTING

     EF_TIMEZONE       = L_TZONE

   EXCEPTIONS

     NO_TIMEZONE_FOUND = 1

     OTHERS            = 2.

CONVERT TIME STAMP L_TSTMP TIME ZONE

        L_TZONE

      INTO DATE L_DATE

        TIME L_TIME.

DATLO, TIMLO and ZONLO would give you the local values if the user has maintained a local timezone in their user profile (menu option System > User Profile > Own Data > Defaults).

SY-DATLO/SY-TIMLO provide the user's local time, based on his user profile time zone (transactions SU01/SU3). I know this can be sometimes a problem if the user travels, but it should be sufficient most of the time, and he can also adjust the timezone himself using SU3.

Hi Mohamad ,

If the user is a windows user , in that case you can get the time zone of user's laptop.

You can code as below :

data: v_reg_value type string.

CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>registry_get_value

   EXPORTING

     root                = CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

     key                 = 'SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation'

     value               = 'TimeZoneKeyName'

   IMPORTING

     reg_value           = v_reg_value

   EXCEPTIONS

     get_regvalue_failed = 1

     cntl_error          = 2

     error_no_gui        = 3

     not_supported_by_gui = 4

     others              = 5.
