Hi,

Try this FM 'PERIOD_AND_DATE_CONVERT_OUTPUT'

It will give you date separated by period symbol.

Reward if helpfull.

hi ,

if the date is in v_date format.

v_date = ddmmyyyy.

we can use concatenate and offset

CONCATENATE v_date5(4) v_date3(2) v_date+0(2) INTO v_final .

regards,

hi,

to which format u wwant to convert.

its displayed automatically in the format of your settings.

check your settings.

if you still want to change use the folloing methods

you can do using edit mask of write statement

data: date(10) type c,

date1 like date,

date2 like date.

date = sy-datum.

write:/ date.

write:/ sy-datum.

write:/ date using edit mask '____:__:__'.

and can use the fms

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERN_FORMAT'

EXPORTING

DATUM = date

DTYPE = date1

IMPORTING

• ERROR =

IDATE = date2

• MESSG =

• MSGLN =

.

Hope you understand
