TIME ZONE difference

Hi Experts,
I am using a statement like
CONVERT DATE D TIME T INTO TIMESTAMP TS TIMEZONE LZONE
LZONE = SY-ZONLO
This statment is storing the time 1 hour back as compared to actual system timing.
Please suggest how to correct this...
I do not want to remove sy-zonlo.
Thanks.

Dear SINGHKUMUD,
The issue lies on the fact that you are not telling the system which country the time should be converted to. Please, notice that GMT time is not exactly as saying UK time.
In summer time GMT is 1 hour difference from UK time. I reckon you are using GMT time, but you have also to tell the system to transforme the time to UK time.
I found 2 links online that might help you:
http://sap.ittoolbox.com/groups/technical-functional/sap-basis/how-to-get-local-time-256413
The second webpage I found is in saptechnical  under /Tips/ABAP/ConvertTime.htm
For some strange reason I could not post the message with the very last link, so please write www in front of saptechnical and copy the /Tips... beside it.

  • Time Zone Difference in _api/Web/regionalsettings

    Hi All,
    I have subscribed to a share point O365 Developer site.
    When I checked the www.myste.com/_api/Web/regionalsettings for my Farm and site collections it is showing GMT-1 (Time zone).
    <updated>2015-04-14T11:56:21Z</updated> (Current tIME isd 5.31 pm)(gmt+5.30 )
    Kindly let me know why it is showing the Time zone difference.
    Regards
    Koti

    Thanks for your reply.
    I have share point hosted in one of my system and also I have one O365 subscribed Site.
    and also In one virtual meachine.
    In all sharepoint sites even if I change regional settings also.
    www.myste.com/_api/Web/regionalsettings
    WWW.virtualsystem.com/sites/sitename/_api/Web/regionalsettings
    WWW.o365site/sites/sitenmae/_api/Web/regionalsettings
    www.mycomapnysite.com/sites/sitename/_api/Web/regionalsettings
    All these showing same time zone UTC, If I am not wrong please try same from your end.
    Each of share point site have different time zone and hosted in different places(one by Microsoft O365,One in my system, One more in my virtual
    system,one by my company).
    If I open this link it is showing GMT Time Zone irrespective of My sharepoint site Reginal settings.
    I have observed also in _api/web/RegionalSettings/timeZone 
    What indicates the Bias,day light Bias , and standara bias is there any thing Ihave modify while getting time using this web api.
    Any one let me know what the zime zone APi returs, If it is UTC is there any article shows that.
    is any specific reason behind this.

  • How to account for shifts and time zone differences in an EPC simulation?

    BPA EPC Simulation results add up processing times and wait times, without regard to shifts or time zone differences between tasks. Does anyone have a technique to deal with shift work or time zone differences? For instance if a task takes 6 hours to complete, the worker can do it in one shift if the task is received within the first two hours. However, if the task arrived near the end of the work day, the worker may work on it for the balance of the shift and then continue the work the next day. The value of a Static Wait Times then depends on when the task is received by the worker. Any ideas on how to realistically model this?
    Similarly, if workers pass tasks between them in difference time zones, static wait times may or may not accurately reflect the impact on thru put time. Any ideas on modeling this?
    thanks

    Thanks Michael -- you've helped me with the project before (back in May of this year). 
    I started this project  as a newby back in 2010 and was a bit overwhelmed (i.e. just happy to get everything into FCP and be able to edit.)
    I'll try the media manage solution, but if that doesn't work I think I'll live with the one-frame drift.  I'm assuming
    the only other alternative would be to go back to all the original video and audio files; transcode using Compressor, and then re-synch with Plural Eyes and go back in to match up the edits?
    Thanks to your continuing help, I should know how to set things up correctly from the get go for the next one!

  • Calendar sync between devices completely messed up due to time zone differences

    Hi,
    I have iPhone 4 (running iOS 7), iPod touch (iOS 6), iPad Air (iOS 8.1) and a Macbook Air (OS X Yosemite). I live in Moscow, Russia.
    Two days ago Russia switched to a winter time, which means that the clock moved back one hour. These changes were automatically reflected on my iPad and Mac, since these are running the latest OS versions, but not on iPhone and iPod that can't be updated to iOS 8 since they are too old. So I had to switch their time manually.
    Weird things started happening immediately after this with my reminders and especially calendar. Reminders are a mess: if I set a reminder to 11:00 on my iPhone, for instance, it might show up at 10:00 on my iPad. This happens all the time even though I now have the same time on all my devices.
    But especially painful now is my calendar. I just notices that all my all-day events (such as birthdays) now moved to one day earlier, but ONLY on my iPad! So the Mac, iPhone, iPod and even icloud.com shows that a friend's birthday is on November 6th, but iPad states that it is on November 5th! And this happened across all my all-day events going forward - but not with those that already happened in the past.
    I have no idea how ti fix this. Please help!

    HEllo,
    same for me, however this is not due to the old IOs, in my case the time changed correctly on my ipad and iphone (both with the latest IOs8.1), so I was happy to see the right time on Sunday morning (remember 2011 it was a big mess), however my happiness was short : my calendar entries are wrong with most events starting an hour earlier.
    my observation shows the mistake comes from apple because the calendar considers Moscow is in GMT +4 whereas it should be +3 today....
    my time settings look ok, time zone is Moscow and time is set to be automatically adjusted...
    PLease Apple help your customers using your devices in Russia !!!

  • PWA site template with warning "Your Local Machine Time Zone does not match your current Sharepoint Regional Settings"

    SharePoint 2010 (SP2010 SP1+ AU CU 2011) site built with Project Web Access template shows message in yellow "Your Local Machine Time Zone does not match your current Sharepoint Regional Settings."
    KB Article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2749599/en-us suggests applying Windows and SharePoint updates, but does not points to a specific update. Also suggests to enable "Always follow

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that SharePoint 2010 (SP2010 SP1+ AU CU 2011) site built with Project Web Access template shows warning "Your Local Machine Time Zone does not match your current Sharepoint Regional Settings".
    Users are getting this message even after correctly specifying and changing the timezone in their Sharepoint Settings. This is a common problem across the net, but we've found a workaround
    that will eliminate this problem.
    Step 1: Open your Web Database in your Browser
    Step 2: Click the Arrow Under the Login ID (upper right corner)
    Step 3: Choose My Settings
    Step 4: Click the My Regional Settings Link
    Step 5: Uncheck the 'Always Follow Web Settings' check and specify your time zone.

  • UTC Time Zone Impact to Sales & Distribution

    We've decided to set out time zone for UTC within the system, while the individual users will set their time zones accordingly.  However, we feel this may lead to some issues with the 6-7 hr time zone difference as most of the users are in Eastern Time or Central Time.  Orders which are created after 7pm Eastern time are recorded as created the following day. 
    I'm sure some of you SD gurus have came across and discussed this same problem during the course of a project.. just looking for some specifics to look for when it comes to time zone issues with SD processing.  (example: batch jobs, variants, time stamps, inbound sales IDocs from different time zones, sales orders data conversion time stamps, date extracts to BI)

    Keep the user time zones in the user profile (t.code SU01). By this way, user transactions will reflect the user time zone -time stamps. For example check this thread Is PGI date beased on system date or user profile time zone date?
    Most of the time the basis team can help you to over come the issues. You can also do some testing related to background job running, IDOC receipt/send etc in the test system for clear understanding.

  • Ical events not displaying correct time zone

    Hi All,
    I have a weird issue and I'm not sure if it's an iCal or an entourage problem. When one of our Entourage2008 (exchange) users sends a meeting invite to a user in a different time zone using ical, the meeting shows in ical as the time the entourage user who created it, aka not adjusting for the time zone. Entourage to outlook calendar or another entourage calendar works fine, and iCal to iCal works fine; just not Entourage to iCal. Also, a calendar event from the iCal user to the Entourage user does adjust correctly for the time zone difference, which is why i'm exactly sure where the problem lies. I did post in the mactopia forums too so please don't yell at me for posting an 'entourage' problem in a mac forum. any help anyone could provide would be appreciated.
    Thank you.
    i'm on 10.5.7 with the latest updates for mac os x and the latest office for mac updates, and we are running off a hosted exchange server. we've experienced the same issue whether we have iCalis ("turn on time support") option enabled in iCal or not enabled.

    It's annoying as it should not be this complicated. I've implemented a work around, but it's not ideal. I have entourage running but not open, and have sync services set to sync with ical. A new invite comes into mac mail, the user clicks on the ics file (which opens entourage calendar), accepts the meeting, and closes the entourage window. The correct time is in entourage calendar, and then syncs with ical and the meeting has the correct time for that time zone.
    If anyone has found a real fix for this problem, please let me know.
    Thanks for letting me know I'm not the only one Jim.

  • How do I sync my icloud calendar between iPhone 5 and macbook pro without a 1 hour difference? I've made sure that the time zones are the same on all devices and it's still doing it.

    I cannot get my iphone 5 and macbook pro to display the same time on my calendar. There is a one hour  difference between them and it is driving me crazy!! Please help!!!

    Did you also confirm that the time zone was set correctly on icloud.com (click on your name, check Time Zone)?

  • Difference between GB and Europe/London Time Zone Region

    Is there any difference between the GB and Europe/London Time Zone Regions?
    I've checked through the documentation and I can't find anything in there. I've also queried the V$TIMEZONE_NAMES view and they show the same abbreviations, so I'm assuming that they're the same, and it's just a case a being as specific as you want.

  • Difference in SAP Time Zone - Time in SAP System

    Hi,
    I am facing a problem in the SAP system time zone settings.
    In my ECC and BI systems the System Time Zone and the User Time Zone is maintained as INDIA. When I check the system status using System -> Status -> Usage Data, I find the below mentioned details.
    Previous logon       10/26/2009  11:20:41
    Logon                                         11:43:25
    System time                                12:48:13
    Time zone               INDIA           23:18:13
    The problem is the time shown after the Time Zone INDIA - "23:18:13", where the time should be "12:48:13". The mentioned time in the field should be the same as the system time. At the OS level I find the date and time of the system to be correct. We are running on
    date
    Mon Oct 26 12:52:21 CDT 2009
    I have tried re-setting the timezones to CET and restarting the machine, but still the TimeZone Time does not change.
    Because of this I face issues in functional transactions where the after the 24th hour in a day, the date increments and users wrongly choose the entries in the From date field in many transactions.
    Please share a solution for the same.
    Thank you
    Regards,
    Vineeth

    Vineeth,
    When you use System > Status in SAP, it lists the system time zone - which in your case would be 12:48 and be CDT.  This appears to be correct and it matches your OS time.  The time mentioned underneath "system time" is the time zone assigned to your SAP user ID in SU01.  This should not be relevant to any data, but if you wish to change it you should be able to via SU01.
    You said "The problem is the time shown after the Time Zone INDIA - "23:18:13", where the time should be "12:48:13" "
    Most likely "India time" is specified in your SU01 profile.  This is normal to have a local time for this; and its probably not related to your issue.  The system time is what is important.
    Hope this helps,
    Ian

  • ISE 1.2 Time Zone

    Hi Community!!
    I have a ISE 1.2 pair, v9 patch installed and sychronized. Recently our time zone changed to summer time which is one hour later. In the CLI I can see that the reference is sent by NTP and the clock has changed but in monitoring I can still see that there is an hour difference from real time.
    I read in Cisco official documentation that time cannot be changed on ISE or else it will become unusable but the logs are not being timestamped correctly and also the time the RADIUS request are made by NAD vs the time they are recieved by ISE have one hour difference.
    Is there a way to solve this? it seems to be prone to any kind of unexpected behaviour when we are least expecting it.
    Thank you!!

    Hmm, this is very strange and it almost seems like a bug with ISE. I would recommend that you contact TAC and have them check this out. 
    The reason I think that it is a bug (Related to the timezone) is the fact that the base OS (Cent/ADE OS) appears to be running fine and keeping track of DST (Day light savings) but the actual application (ISE) installed on Cent is not. 
    I am far from NTP or Linux expert but I don't believe that NTP pushes/honors timezones. I think NTP just synchronizes the clock while timezones/DST is controlled locally. 
    If the issue is not a bug, it is perhaps due to selecting the incorrect timezone. I have never done a deployment outside of the US and the UK so I am not familiar with timezones in Chile. However, if we take Eastern Time Zone for example. I had to make sure that I select "EST5EDT" in ISE and not just EST. If I simply selected EST then DST was not observed and made things ugly :) The same applied for Pacific timzone where I had to make sure that I select "PST8PDT" With all of that being said, I checked the CLI in ISE and I don't see any Chile related timezones that would indicate DST observations. You can check for those yourself by using the following command "show timezones"
    I was able to find these but perhaps there are more and a specific one to CST/CLST. I tried searching for those but could not find anything:
    NS-ISE-01/admin# show timezones | i Santiago
    America/Santiago
    NS-ISE-01/admin# show timezones | i Chile
    Chile/EasterIsland
    Chile/Continental
    NS-ISE-01/admin# show timezones | i CLT
    NS-ISE-01/admin# show timezones | i CLST
    Let me know what you find. I would like to know the cause/resolution
    Thank you for rating helpful posts!

  • Splitting front and back end servers across time zones

    Weblogic Server 7.0
    EJB is in Memphis,
    jsp/servlets/web command classes are in Colorado
    sending a date to the DB (in Memphis) results in a date getting changed by about 13 hours.
    The change happens between the web command class in Colorado and the EJB command class in Memphis.
    Any ideas as to what might be causing this and how to eliminate this bug would be very much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Solution was that someone had configured the WLS to always operate dates in GMT, therefore the time differences between time zones were blown out of proportion...

  • How do I stop iCal from ever changing the time zones of my appointments?

    I cannot figure out time zone support in iCal, and just want it never to move the time of an appointment when I change time zones. I have tried switching time zone support on and off, and it makes no difference, the appointment times change when the time zone changes. It's infuriating! How do I make it stop?
    Thanks!

    Whitecity,
    According to iCal Help...Changing the time zone for an event: Choose iCal > Preferences, click Advanced, and select the "Turn on time zone support" checkbox...To change the event's time zone, choose a time zone from the pop-up menu in the Info drawer. To make the event appear at the same time no matter what time zone the main calendar view is in, choose Floating..;~)
