Hi,

You cna use CONVERT_DATE_TO_EXTERNAL

or you can write these lines in your code to get the user format, this will support all the SAP formats

DATA: date_1 like sy-datum.

data: Date2(8).

data: date_3(10).

date_1 = SY-DATUM.

Move DATE_ 1 to DATE_2.

Write: Date_2 to Date_3.

Write:/ Date_3.

so now, Date_3 will have the user format.
