Documentation

Definition

Local timestamp, based on the local time zone of the user.

The timestamp format is obsolete and has been replaced by the following new formats:

• Short form, accurate to one second. Internal length 8 bytes, external length 19 bytes (formatted).
• Long form accurate to 1^-7 seconds. Internal length 11 bytes, external length 27 bytes (formatted).

Notes

In the following cases, it is not possible to calculate a local timestamp:

• The time zone is not entered in the user master record
or
• The time zone in the user master record is invalid
or
• The time zones are inactive (table TTZCU).

In this case, the system date and time are combined into a timestamp.
