Title: How to see the local system time when the report was run
Post by: jatin.popat on 25 Aug 2009 07:16:33 AM
Hi...........

We are having cognos server at onsite.........

So when i am using NOW() function in my report to see the time at which the report is run,
i can see the time of onsite instead of my local system time............

Some time back i saw one posting with same issue ( along with the solution ), but i am not able to find that post.........

Has anybody implemented the same........??

If yes then please let me know ?

It would really be helpful for me ..........

As a quick and easy fix, create a calculation based on the server time. If your time zone is 3 hours behind the server time, subtract the difference.

Just a thought!
