To show Last Update Date(Date datatype) as per User Preferred TimeZone

Question

VO RuleSetVO.xml has a timestamp attribute LastUpdateDate.In UI,this VO is shown in table format and the last update date is shown in date format and there is QBE filter enabled on it.
As there is a QBE enabled on last update date and our filltering view criteria requires a date attribute,we have made use of a transient date datatype attribute LastUpdateDateQBE which gets the value from the LastUpdateDate in VOrowImpl and LastUpdateDateQBE (date attribute) is shown in UI.
Now,we have a requiement to show the date in UI in user preferred time zone instead of DB server timezone.
Any pointers to the solution??
Note:
1.LastUpdateDateQBE is a date attribute,cannot use <timeZone="#{applCorePrefs.UPTZ}"/> as this doesnt hold good on date attribute
2.There might be differences between the DB server timezone and the timezeone in which the database records are stored i.e both might not be in sync always.

The above label originated from base label == JDEVADF_MAIN_GENERIC_090903.1833.5483

Answer 1

I would have to think that someone on the fusion apps team has already dealt with something like this - why not ask your peers instead of a public forum (we don't know all the ins-and-outs of fusion apps and any utility methods that may be available for you)
