Ü  DATE

·         This keyword is used at field level to show the date at specified position in output mode.

·         The syntax of this keyword is:

o   DATE(*SYS or *JOB  |  *Y or *YY)

·         By default the job date is displayed, if we mention *SYS parameter then the system date is displayed.

·         If we use the parameter *Y then year is displayed in 2 digit format and if we use *YY then the year is displayed in 4 digit year format.

·         We can use EDTCDE to change the date formatting.

·         We can also use DATSEP to insert different date separator like ‘/’, ‘-‘, ‘.’ Etc.
