Please check  Reference manual --> Basic concepts --> Functions: Overview 
to get an idea what FUNCTIONS we have. They are described in Functions
sorted according to their usage (string.., number, date...).

But you are looking for 
Reference manual --> Basic concepts --> Specifying values --> value spec
and there date/time/timestamp and all the other 'special values' known by SAP DB.

May I ask you to check the chapter date_and_time_format (link is next to date)
to assure that you receive what you want.
