First Day of Week in Data Entry Profile

[Former Member]

Does anyone know if there is a standard SAP RFC i can use in my Web Dynpro application to get the First Day of Week entry in a user's Data Entry Profile?

Thanks,

You can use below Function Modules for that,

DATE_GET_WEEK - gives the year and week for input date

WEEK_GET_FIRST_DAY - input as 200743 (year and week)- it will return starting of the week

GET_WEEK_INFO_BASED_ON_DATE - takes current Date and return Start and End of the week(Standard BAPI).

Thank you Sridhar, this is very helpful.

I have one problem though. If I have my first day of the week set to Saturday, and I view the table in Record Working Time, I can see the week begins with Saturday.

But when I use the Function Modules you offered, the First Day of the Week comes back as Monday. Do you know what would cause this difference?

Thanks,

Hello Kevin,

Function Module returns the System Date from that SAP System(R/3). I have checked this BAPI with '200743 - current week' GET_WEEK_INFO_BASED_ON_DATE, it returns proper data like Start Date and End Date.

I Assume, you are using this in your Java WD. You can write your own function for this. This will return the day of the week.

Calendar xmas = new GregorianCalendar(2007, Calendar.SEPTEMBER, 23);

int dayOfWeek = xmas.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);

wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("Day : "+dayOfWeek);

Note : - week starts with 0 . 0 - Monday 6 -Saturday.
