Definition
The UTC time stamp represents the date and time with reference to UTC (Universal Time Coordinated).
To normalize local times in a UTC time stamp and thereby make them comparable, they must be converted with the specification of their time zone. Use the ABAP command convert to do this.
It is recommended that you save the time zone on which the calculation is based even if it can be determined from customizing or master data.
The internal structure of the high resolution UTC time stamp is logically subdivided into a date and time part in the packed number format <JJJJMMTThhmmssmmmuuun>. Note that the resolution of 100 nanoseconds available in the structure is not generally supported by the hardware used.
Also refer to GET TIME STAMP
In addition, there is a normal resolution UTC time stamp.
