custom function in xMII

[Former Member]

Hi,

Is there a way to include our own custom function in the link editor. I am talking about the fucntions which are in drop-down list of Link editor.

Here is what I want to do. I want to include a custom function so that it returns a date in xMII date format given the SAP internal date and time format fields.

Let me know if I need to be more clear.

Thanks,

Srinivas.

You should be able to use the datetoxmlformat function to do this, Srinivas.

Alternatively, you could create a custom action block, but at present, the function list is not extensible (interestingly, all of the code to allow extensions is in there, but we haven't exposed a mechanism for enabling it).

Rick,

As of now I am just concatenating sap_date&"T"&sap_time to get xMII date format. I know you know it very well but I am just mentioning it here for those who see this thread in future.

Thanks for your time.

Rick,

Will this be available in 12.0

Thanks,

datetoxmlformat(datetime, fromformat) doesn't meet your needs? When you say xMII date format I guess you mean xml datetime , right?

As far as I know you have to make do with the built in functions provided with the link editor.
