Hi,
I have a scenario here where I have to read from a file and then upload the contents to a custom table.
The file is comprised of several lines, each line being formatted to accomodate several fields, according to their length specifications. It's the "standard" string style to import/export files from one system to another.
My question is: one of these fields is a date field, and I am required to order the table, afterwards, by this date field. I notice it comes as DDMMYYYY, and my SORT is not working. If I use, on the other hand, dates in YYYYMMDD format, the SORT works perfectly.
Does SAP expects the date to come as YYYYMMDD ? Is there a way I can change this "default" format ?
Thanks,
Avraham
