Discrepancy in time zone between table ETOUEXCEPTION and TOU Exception report ETOUEXCEPT01

[SAPSupport]

Hello,

There is a discrepancy regarding the time zone between the table ETOUEXCEPTION and display in Transaction ETOUEXCEPT01.
The table stores the value for a different time than it is displayed in the transaction.
Both show the same time zone.

Thanks and regards

Hello,

I would like to ask you to have a look at the F1-Help of field ETOUEXCEPTION-EXCEPTIONPROGTIMEZONE.
Here you will find the following explanation:

Time Zone for TOU Exception Program

Use
The time zone is used to display TOU exceptions.
Times for TOU exceptions are stored to the database in UTC (coordinated universal time) in the system. During processing, the system converts the times to the time zone specified here.

Dependencies
The system only observes TOU exceptions from exception programs whose time zone matches the time zone for the installation during billing.

So, data are always stored in UTC time in the data base table and the time zone stored in the table is used to convert the data when they are displayed.

Best regards,
