Changing the time zone of the userid in question is not an option as it is used by many other jobs so changes to it could affect things elsewhere. Last resort would be to create a new user id with the central time zone. But I would prefer to find an ABAP solution if possible.</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 21 Apr 2008 21:27:35 GMT Former Member 2008-04-21T21:27:35Z System Variable - using time zone https://community.sap.com/t5/application-development-and-automation-discussions/system-variable-using-time-zone/m-p/3719947#M895493 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>My program is currently converting date and time into timestamp using sy-zonlo which uses the time zone of the userid running the job.
