While appreciating the humor, I'd point out that nested function calls like
that are entirely natural and accepted in Rexx. With good tracing options like

Indeed. And also no worries at all about Leap Year!
I use 'Base' to feed my SMF jobs the date of today+yesterday for dumping
purposes.

If you use 'Base' then maths works without needing to worry about 0 or
negatives.
/* REXX */
TODAY = DATE('BASE')
YESTERDAY = TODAY-1
DAYB4 = TODAY-2
ISODATE = DATE('STANDARD',TODAY,'BASE')
SAY ISODATE
ISODATE = DATE('STANDARD',YESTERDAY,'BASE')
SAY ISODATE
ISODATE = DAT
Yes, I forgot to mention last step: covert Julian date to the date format
you use.

Thanks for reply. But in our rexx automation, we basically need all three
Year , month and date. So, not sure, if I can achieve it from the logic you
suggested before.

- Deduct one from first two cha

Hello Group,
In
Try this logic:
- Get the Julian date of today (YYXXX)
- Deduct 1 from Julian date (xxx)
- Last 3 digits zero? (xxx)
- Deduct one from first two chars (year) (YY)
- Decide the Julian date (365 or 366 based on year/4) (xxx)

Hello Group,
In REXX , we have Date function to calculate today's date but do we have
any separate function to calculate yesterday's date.
currently, we used
TODAY= DATE('S')
YESTERDAY = TODAY - 1
this code work whole month but, starting of the month where we have date
ex :
TODAY - '20180801
21 matches
