Thanks for your reply Birgitta
Isnt the way that the beginning of next month is being calculated, doing what you suggested?
Beginning_of_Next_Month = MyDate - %Days(%subdt( myDate:*days)-1) +
%months(1) ;
The piece of code
%Days(%subdt( myDate:*days)-1)
Is calculating the day of the month less one day
Subtracting that from the field mydate, then adding back one month

Beginning of the next month is not calculated correctly.
You need to add 1 moth to the current date, then determine then day of month and subtract it from the result and add 1 day.
... but why to calculate the beginning of the next month with RPG and not SQL
Exec SQL Set :Beginning_Of_Next_Month = Last_Day(:MyDate) + 1 Day;
Or in a sigle Step:
Exec SQL Set :HoldDayOfWeek_ISO = Week_ISO(Last_Day(:MyDate) + 1 Day)

Subject: problem with DAYOFWEEK_ISO in an SQLRPGLE program
Hi everyone
We are on V7r3
I am trying to determine the first business day of the following month I have a simple program to start of with It takes a date, calculates the first of the following month, and then finds the day of the week (ISO) The code is below (like I said - its simple) Using debug, I can see that HldDayOfWeek_ISO from DayOfWeek_ISO(Beginning_of_Next_Month) is zero (which is NOT a correct value) But HldDayOfWeek_ISO2 from
DAYOFWEEK_ISO(CURRENT_DATE) is 3 - which is correct - today being Wednesday
***NOTE*** - The value of Beginning_Of_Next_month is '2019-02-01' , according to debug Can anyone see what is wrong with this code?
Why I am not getting the DAYOFWEEK_ISO for Beginning_Of_Next_Month?
As always, all answers replies gratefully accepted
dcl-s MyDate date
inz(d'2019-01-02');
dcl-s Beginning_of_Next_Month date;
dcl-s HldDayOfWeek_ISO zoned(2:0);
dcl-s HldDayOfWeek_ISO2 zoned(2:0);
//-------------------------------------------------------------------
// Stand Alone Fields - BOTTOM
//-------------------------------------------------------------------
exec Sql Set Option Commit=*NC, CLOSQLCSR=*ENDMOD, DECMPT=*PERIOD;
exec Sql Set Option DATFMT = *ISO, NAMING = *SQL;
Beginning_of_Next_Month = MyDate - %Days(%subdt( myDate:*days)-1) +
%months(1) ;
exec sql
select DayOfWeek_ISO(Beginning_of_Next_Month)
into :HldDayOfWeek_ISO
FROM SYSIBM.SYSDUMMY1;
exec sql
SELECT DAYOFWEEK_ISO(CURRENT_DATE)
INTO :HldDayOfWeek_ISO2 FROM SYSIBM.SYSDUMMY1;
*inlr = '1';
return;
