Date field question...
There may be a few exceptions, but in JDE all date fields are generally defined as a 6-digit julian format - 105001, for example, indicates 1-January-2005. 099001 indicates 1-January-1999. (The '1' prefix indicates that the date is in the 21st century, a '0' prefix indicates 20th century).
Let's say you're defining a date/timestamp field (14,0 Zoned) -or- a date field (8,0 Zoned) in a non-JDE data base (DB2). Is our industry, is there a standard for populating these types of field? I have an idea as to how they should be populated, but would like another's opinion.
Please do not confuse my question with the "date" data type that is now available. I believe that the customer's requirement is to have this field defined as a numeric field...
