UTC Date Time and Normal Date Time

Hi All,
1. How UTC date time and Normal date time differs in siebel.
2. If legacy data needed to be loaded into siebel, in siebel few fields are date time and UTC date time fields. what would happen if we load both normal date time and UTC date time without considering them techinically?
3. UTC date time holds any specific format in physical database? If we want to load legacy data to UTC date time format what is the query to manipulate it?
Thankyou
Sean

Sean,
Please check document below, I believe it has most of the answers to the questions you have:

PowerBI regional/localisation settings (date time format/timezone) - PowerPivot dax NOW() returning UTC date

Can the regional settings be changed for PowerBI or are we stuck with UTC? Tried googling but the only hits for 'regional powerbi' relate to the portal being available in that region, not any kind of localisation configuration
I have a workbook that is set to auto refresh. I've added a 'last refreshed' label to the front page, but when refreshed on PowerBI it shows the time in UTC (10.5 hrs off from where I am).
I'm not a sharepoint person so will need steps and diagrams if it's a sharepoint config setting :)

Hi Ed,
I have a date dimension and I add a computed column to it. It's called RefreshDate. The code for the computed column is =NOW()
I then use this column to show to the user when the model was last refreshed.
Hi Greg, not really interested in workarounds at this time (i have another thread going for that & my data source is web apis, not a relational db with datetime functions) -
this is more of a question of "is it possible to choose which timezone is used by the powerbi vertipaq engine for scheduled refreshes? yes/no"
We are working in a single time zone, but the PowerBI vertipaq engine looks like it's lives in london.
It shows the correct current time on the local user's PC when I (or a user) refreshes this model locally. It shows the UTC date (my time zone - 10.5 hrs) when the report is refreshed by powerbi.
I have a workaround going in my report currently using powerquery to get the utc date and manually add 10.5 hrs + add a label to my report that states this is a fixed 10.5hr. This is a hack because we're in a daylight savings zone, so in a few months
the tz will revert to +9.5hrs and i'll need to manually fix this again unless i'm able to set powerbi to use my time zone.
The sharepoint guys here have changed every setting they know about in sharepoint online/o365 in regards to time zones and localisation. The date format and dates shown are correct for the 'web pages' part of powerbi (the refresh history, the formatting
of the dates on the powerview reports etc), but the time zone used when powerbi executes the NOW() dax command appears to be set to UTC.
Thanks

UTC Date/Time conversion

Is there a documented formula for converting UTC date/time stamps in CallDetailRecords (e.g., 1074902387) to a recognizable time/date?

In Call Manager, the CDR exports are in EPOCH time. Here is the formula to convert epoch time in a Call Manager CDR to a standard format in excel. After using the formula, you will need to format the cell for date and time.
=(((E2-(6*3600))/86400)+25569)
E2 = cell reference
6 = Timezone Offset (this is Central Standard time)
3600 = Number of seconds in an hour
86400 = Number of seconds in a day
25569 = Excel hack because excel counts epoch from 1/1/1904 and most others start at 1/1/1970.
Found this formula on the following webpage:

Power Query Language Functions to Convert a UTC Date/Time to MST

I need to convert an implicit UTC date/time value to a MST date/time value. I thought that I could achieve this by converting to an ISO 8601 compliant text representation of the MST date/time value (see below) and then back to a date/time value, but
it's not working ...
DateTime.FromText( DateTime.ToText( [MIN_REVSN_RLSE_DTTM] ,"yyyy-MM-ddThh:mm:ss-07"))
Is this a bug? Or, is there a better way to do this?

That's a fixed duration. Why not just [MIN_REVSN_RLSE_DTTM] + #duration(0, -7, 0, 0)?
EDIT: For what it's worth, I don't think PQ ever does anything with DST anyway. This has both good points and bad points.

ABAP statement for converting UTC date/ time to local date/time

Hi
Is there any abap statement or any function module in BW which converts UTC date and UTC
time into local date and local time according to specific country.

Hi,
and to convert the country to a timezone first use: TZ_LOCATION_TIMEZONE

Convert String to java UTC date then to sql date

Hi,
I am trying to convert string (MM/dd/yyyy format) to UTC date time and store in the database.
This is what I did:
String dateAsString = "10/01/2007";
SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");
formatter.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));
formatter.setLenient(false);
java.util.date dateValue = formatter.parse(dateAsString, new ParsePosition(0));
dateValue will be Sun Sep 30 20:00:00 EDT 2007 in UTC.
Now I need to store this date and time to MS SQL database.
I used the following code:
java.sql.Date sqlDateValue = new java.sql.Date(parsedToDate.getTime());
But this code give only the date, not time 2007-09-30
Can anybody tell me how I can change this java date to sql date (or datetime?) so that I can get both date and time.
Thanks,
semaj

Getting UTC date from NSDate

I am using following function to convert NSDate in "UTC" date.
-(NSString *)getUTCFormateDate:(NSDate *)localDate
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
NSTimeZone *timeZone = [NSTimeZone timeZoneWithName:@"UTC"];
[dateFormatter setTimeZone:timeZone];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:@"YYYY-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"];
NSString *dateString = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:localDate];
return dateString;
I am getting result correct for some dates and I am not getting it correct for some of date.it converts time perfectly , but for some date it converts year to the next year.
following are some observation.
firstDate = 2008-12-27 17:17:58 +0530.
firstUtcDate = 2008-12-27 11:47:58.
secondDate = 2008-12-29 16:30:00 +0530.
secondUtcDate = 2009-12-29 11:00:00 //the year has been changed.
thirdDate = 2008-12-29 17:00:00 +0530
thirdUtcDate = 2009-12-29 11:30:00 //again the year has been changed.
Can anyone tell me what is problem with function.

Try changing the year formatting arguments to "yyyy". "YYYY" means something else besides the year: Year (of "Week of Year"), used in ISO year-week calendar. May differ from calendar year.
See the Unicode docs for an explanation.

UTC Date Format

Hi,
I am facing the following problem.
Say If I use the following select command
select upd_date
from table
where id=123
I get as result => 22.08.07
I know that this result is in UTC Format.
I would like to get the localformat with hour min and sec.
Which function do I have to use for it, to get the local time?
select ?func?( upd_date )
from table
where id=123
Google leads me to SYS_EXTRACT_UTC.
1st of all I can't use it with my column upd_date.
But I think this function is if the stored value would be in localtime
and I would like to get the UTC date time of it. LOCAL => UTC.
I want the opposite version. UTC => LOCAL
thanks for any hint
aykut

unfortunately returns your code the stored date value as is and not the converted localdate.
say, user sets a meeting date via GUI.
user sees the local date, e.g. 31.11.2007 14:01:23
User lives in an area with the timezone UTC +1 e.g. in London,
(the database is set as UTC +1 as timezone)
that means the value is stored as 31.11.2007 15:01:23
The conversion depends on summer and winter time.
So if I submit a SELECT for a stored value: "31.11.2007 14:01:23"
I expect to get "31.11.2007 15:01:23"
With your SQL I get the same value as is in the database.

Storing DateTime to Table Storage - once UTC another time local

Weird stuff... Look at this TableEntity initialization:
Patient patient = new Patient
DateOfBirth = new DateTime(2009, 5, 15),
//DateOfBirth = DateTime.Today,
FirstName = "Alex",
LastName = "Bee",
Title = "Mr."
If I store this entity with DateTime(2009, 5, 15) to Table storage (using Storage Emulator) and then read it back the retrieved value is exactly the same. Now, if I uncomment the line with DateTime.Today the value I get is UTC (which is in my case 4 hours difference)!
So, ... WTF? :) What am I missing here?

Hi
That's true, for date times, we should always use UTC specially if there is load balancer involved or you are hosting the services in the cloud where you dont know which time zone the server will have..
So as a general practice use UTC dates all the time.

Difference between RDA delta and normal Delta

Hi All
I have some doubts regarding the RDA [Real Time data Acquisition] process I am aware that RDA enables us to get the data every minute with help of Daemon process.What is the diffrence between th delta mechanism that is followed in RDa and normal dataflow.
Thanks & Regards
Santosh Varada

Hi Varda ,
RDA is Real Time Data Acquisition . In this We can retrieve Live data . While using Normal DTP We can t pull live data
For example :- Today We have Create a 50 orders . This 50 order information pulled after completion of sales order creation . we can t see live . But RDA process pulled the data at the point of sales order creation it self ,It support only Stranded DSO .It will use Some industries like FMCG.Retail,banking sector they want to know current data information from BI Side then RDA.

Slow motion and Normal speed?

Can I take video shot 720p at 60 fps and use both slow motion and normal speeds in the same video??

Time Stretch is where I would start. If you need to apply that Effect to only part of a Clip, just use the Razor/Scissors Tool, to Cut that Clip, into the segments, where you wish to apply Time Stretch.
Posterize Time can be effective, as well, but from my reading of your needs, I think that Time Stretch (Rt-click the Clip, or Clip segment and apply).
Good luck,
Hunt

What are smart mailboxes and why do i need both smart and "normal" ones?

What are smart mailboxes and why do I need both smart and "normal" mailboxes?

Hi Kingoftypos,
Thanks for that clarification. So, now it appears that the ultimate purpose of a Smart Mailbox is to point to all emails that meet the criteria in a single place, so if they are spread among several mailboxes, you will be able to see them all together. Here is an article from Apple that describes it:
A Smart Mailbox displays in one location messages that are stored in other mailboxes, so you don’t have to move messages between mailboxes. The messages displayed by a Smart Mailbox are based on criteria you define, and are automatically updated to include new messages that match your criteria. For example, you might create a Smart Mailbox that displays all messages found in all mailboxes from a specific sender.
If you change a message in a Smart Mailbox, such as marking the message as read or unread, or moving or deleting the message, the change is reflected in the mailbox where the message is actually stored.
So, adam, I would think that, if you had mail going to a lot of different places, and wanted to be able to see a particular set of those in a single place, you would use a smart mailbox. Maybe use the rules to direct your mail to different places to start with, but a smart mailbox to bring a set of common ones all together into a single smart mailbox?
Maybe you have Rules move your Amazon mail to an Amazon folder and your Apple mail to an Apple folder, but then you have a Smart Mailbox that contains any mail that has the word "Receipt" in the Subject line?
Just a thought....
Cheers,
GB

Project Materials and Normal Material as a part of Sales Order

Dear Sir,
Can any body tell me d scenario when I can create Project material and Normal materials in the same sales order ?
My requirement is that I am using milestone billing. But this is applied for 1st 2 milestones only. For the rest it is delivery related billing.
So my solution is to create project material for milestone billing and actual materials for delivery related billing. So in delivery it will pick from my project stock with 601 Q movement type.
I cannot test this scenario in SAP due to some technical problem. Can anybody plz tell me that I can do this in Std SAP ?
Thanks for co-operation
Regards
Keshav

Dear Keshav,
Probably you need not create two materials. Create a "Z" item category group and assign it in the material Sales org 2 tab. Under "Assign Item category Group" in SD configuration, you need to map the sales Document type, Item category group and Default item category. Have default item category as TAN and Manual item category as TAO. ( please choose the default as per your need). Once you are in the sales document, have TAN item category for the line item for which you require Delivery related billing and TAO for the line item for which you require milestone billing.( You can change the default item category ..which defaults based on your configuration). Double click and notice that now a billing plan tab appears for the item relavant for Milestone billing.
I think you also have to configure the schedule line category so that the project stock is picked up while delivery. Please take help from your SD consultant.
Warm regards,
Srinivas Potluri
