Hi Sir
faced same issue last week , tried this one
local date &testdate ;
Record.field.value = &testdate;
by default &testdate is NUll :
That's right Neeraj, although I prefer to specifically assign values to variables rather than use their default vale. Anyway, that's more a question of programming style of each developer.
Thanks for your feedback.

Hi Anand
No problem, I'll be happy to contribute to your PeopleSoft community. It seems a good place to share information among PeopleSofters.
Cheers!
or you could simply do it with %DateNull
Hi Parag
The %DateNull seems to be Meta-SQL and as far as I tried would not work in PeopleCode (I've tried with PeopleTools 8.50). Also checked the PeopleBooks documentation and it does not appear as a system variable but only as Meta-SQL.
Which PeopleTools version were you using to make the %DateNull value work?
Thanks for your contribution.
Parag is right.
%DateNull is applicable for use in PeopleCode, AE, SQL
Last week a delivered code was throwing an error like this. We found that the culprit was a month() to which a null value was being passed.
