Hi i want my rundate to display in 'yyyymmdd' format for which i used
CONVERT (CHAR (4),DATEPART(YY,GETDATE()))),101)
+ CONVERT(CHAR(10),CONVERT(DATETIME,LTRIM(RTRIM(VOUCHERMONTH))
+'01'


date i want to be '01' always

month will be taken from voucher month

now my problem is that it is not getting that date in the format which i need
i even used the format 101 and saw instaed of '112'

SELECT Replace(CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 120),'-','')

select CONVERT (CHAR(4),DATEPART(YY,GETDATE()))
+ CONVERT(CHAR(2),datepart(mm,LTRIM(RTRIM(VOUCHERMONTH))))
+'01'

why converting to character data? if you want to get first date of voucher month this is enough

DATEADD(mm,vouchermonth-1,DATEADD(yy,DATEDIFF(yy,0,GETDATE()),0))
