Re: Date Math 405 CD 5.1

Al,
I have written some shop calendar loading procedures that gets the shop
calendar into the proper RPGLE data structures for doing work based on
that. I don't have a routine to do DayOfWeek calculations though. But if
you get a DayOfWeek program, I can give you the other procedure.


Thanks

[BPCS-L] Date Math 405 CD 5.1






I have been requested to do a modification, and I am having difficulty
locating good tools to support it. We are BPCS 405 CD, IBM 5.1.
* Is there a standard subroutine, like in QSTD, or native
IBM, where
we feed in date and it returns if that Date is a Monday Wednesday or
whatever day of week? This is because they want something to happen based
on business days, not calendar days.
* Is there a standard subroutine, where I can feed in some
date from
some BPCS data, and some # of business days (3 days is their current
interest, but that could change), access the FSC shop calendar, and figure
that out ... like if the BPCS date is for a Monday, then 3 business days
prior to that is the previous Wednesday.
