How to Create a Business Function to display Date Requested and the Week Number?

Question

I received a request from a client to display Date Requested and the week number of the year this date falls-in. I was surprise to find out that there is not a Business Function in JDE that provides this calculation so we had to create our own BF to this. So how do you create group of tasks to accomplish this?

Answer

Below are the data structure and the text code used to return the Week Number of a "Given Date".

/** D5900007
* TYPEDEF for Data Structure
* D5900007 : Get Week of the Year from Calendar date
typedef struct tagDSD5900007
{
JDEDATE jdDate;
JCHAR szBranch[13];
int nWeekNumber;
} DSD5900007 , *LPDSD5900007;
#define IDERRjdDate_1 1L
#define IDERRszBranch_2 2L
#define IDERRnWeekNumber_3 3L
#endif /* DATASTRUCTURE_D5900007 */
