Hi,

The system date and system time which is showing in SAP is nothing but the date and time of the SERVER itself.

By default it will have only one time i.e. server time only.

Though you see different time and date on your PC, it is different from your PC date and time in SAP.

Santhosh.

it always takes the Application Server date and also SY-DATUM refers to the server date.

For End user system you need to use SY-DATLO and SY-TIMLO variables.
