If you have any date field, just convert it to CYMD - packed(7:0).
Our ERP uses CYMD exclusively.
Part of my standard Init() in all programs:
TodayCYMD = %dec(%date() : *CYMD);

Subject: Can a date have a *CYMD format?
I need to send a file to a vendor asking for the date (numeric, not a date
data type) in the form CYYMMDD where the "C" is 0 for the 1900's and 1 for
the 2000's. Fair enough.
I figured the easiest was to start with a date data type in the form *CYMD
then make it numeric. I see reference in the RPG documentation on date
data types to *CYMD, but you can't define a date with that format.
Is that right or am I missing something?
Thanks.
