In My synonym I have

DEFINE MYDATE/MDYY MISSING ON=IF LENV( TRIMV('T', DLVY, 20, ' ', 1, 'A20V'), 'I8') NE 0 THEN
DATECVT(EDIT( TRIM('T', DLVY, 20, ' ', 1, 'A20'), '99$99$9999' ), 'A8MDYY', 'MDYY')
ELSE
'';

But when the flows run it inserts 1900-12-31 00:00:00 where ever a date was not given. I thought 'MISSING ON' passed Null to the targate sql

Try
ELSE MISSING;
in place of
ELSE '';

'' represents the date value that WebFocus displays as blank (and 12/31/1900 is reserved for that purpose); MISSING, the null value, is something else.

Instead of ELSE '' use ELSE MISSING.


N/A

If ELSE MISSING doesn't solve the problem, you may need to SET DATEDISPLAY = OFF at the top of your program to prevent the base date from populating null dates.

Also include SET HOLDMISS = ON at the top of your code , this will ensure
that when you issue the ON TABLE HOLD AS something FORMAT SQLORA any missing/nulls
will not get populated with a default date.
