Dates are stored in SAP as strings with the format yyyyMMdd


Lets say you have a web form with a textbox that has users entering a date in the format 12/25/2004 (MM/dd/yyyy).
To Get it into SAP...

string[] aryOnsiteDate = this.txtOnSiteDate.Text.Split("/".ToCharArray());
string onSiteDate = aryOnsiteDate[2] + aryOnsiteDate[0] + aryOnsiteDate[1];
		    yyyy                 MM                 dd



Another example... to create a DateTime object from an SAP representation...

DateTime dt = DateTime.ParseExact("20041225", "yyyyMMdd", null);


...or to create an SAP date string from a DateTime object...

someDateTimeObject.ToString("yyyyMMdd");
