    Hi Venu,

    Use this Function Module

    data: prev_date like (type of calc_date).

    CALL FUNCTION 'RP_CALC_DATE_IN_INTERVAL'

    EXPORTING

    date = sy-datum

    days = 1

    months = 0

    signum = '-'

    years = 0

    IMPORTING

    calc_date = prev_date.

    This should surely work.

    Thanks and Regards,

    Prashanth

    Simply subtract from today.

    data: yesterday type sy-datum.

yesterday = sy-datum - 1.

    hi,

    No need of any fm.

    Just subtract the no of the days from the days. It gives the previous date.

    Hello Venu

    If you also need function modules dealing with <b>working days</b> you will find useful FMs in function group <b>FB00</b>.

    Regards

    Uwe

    Hi,

    Use the below logic,

    data lastdate like sy-datum.

    lastdate = sy-datum - 1.

    Cheers,

    Abdul Hakim

    • DATE_TO = SY-DATUM

    • LANGUAGE = SY-LANGU

    • IMPORTING

    • YEAR_OF_VALID_FROM =

    • YEAR_OF_VALID_TO =

    • RETURNCODE =

    TABLES

    DAY_ATTRIBUTES = s_table
