WIP database central time and local time questions

[former_member323997]

Hi,

I have mission to develop some reports which has to point to the WIP database, as far as I know, the WIP data time is stored as the central timestamp, but our usr is accepted only with local time. As we have several sties in US with different timezone, so it is a little confusing to me how to make my report be able to recongize the correct local time simply.

In SAP ME internal report, I search some SFC information, it always can display the correct local date time, I am interested to know how SAPME works like thi, if possible, can anyone share this method to me? or give me some good idea how I can handle this?

Thanks a lot and best regards,

Hi,

In most cases ME grabs timezone associated with site (Site Maintenance). Some reports though might use client's locale from browser to make conversion.

Hi Leon,

Time in DB is stored in GMT. Reports use client OS timezone to shift timestamps from GMT to client timezone.
