Excel Document creation timestamp error in BI Launchpad

mhmohammed — Wed, 11 Dec 2019 22:33:49 GMT

Everyone,

I see a peculiar issue (perhaps a bug) in BI 4.2 SP6 Patch 8, in BI Launchpad in the creation time of Excel document uploaded. I was hoping to see today's date and time at least in the last file as I uploaded it today (the other 2 files were migrated from a different env), but it shows 12/31/69 11:59:59 PM for all the files. Could this be a bug?

Thanks,
Mahboob Mohammed

If you describe your workflow with a bit more details, maybe we can provide some feedback.

Hi Denis,

Actually, it's not about the workflow, it's about the wrong timestamp being displayed in the creation time of this Excel source. Obviously those files were not created on 12/31/69 11:59:59 PM.

Thanks,
