Production execution running at Local Time

running at Local Time - Material DocumentDate/Time explanation

Incident Summary
Why is Material Document “created on date” is still showing UTC time. When user is in MYS and his SU01 default time zone setting is already set to UTC + 8.

Analysis
1. MB51
Plant 1510
Movement Type : 101
Entry Date : 22.03.2012
Time of Entry : 16.00 to 18.00

3. MIGO Display Material Document 5013696392
[General] tab
Document Date and Posting Date = 23.03.2012
(on financial side, the posting date is important not the posting time)

4. MIGO Display Material Document 5013696392
[Doc.info] tab
Created On = 22.03.2012
Date = 16:38
This is the UTC time, which is the document entry date and time. This is always fixed and defaulted from sap system and it cannot be changed

5. To check the financial posting date/time
[FI Documents]
Accounting Document 4000296294
Click on [Header]
You will see that :-
Document Date and Posting Date are 23.03.2012 (which is MYS date)
Entry Date : 22.03.2012 (which is UTC date)
Explanation
Even though the document entry-date is 22.03.2012 16:38:22 but system is able to recognize the posting-date as 23.03.2012.
SAP server resides in Germany, transaction time stamp which is the ‘entry date’ and ‘entry time’ would reflect the sap server cpu time.

Posting Date would take the local network time, which is MYS date/time.

Hope the above explanation meets your requirement.

BUT MYS Production Control respond was
Thanks for the explanation, but then how a user to check and generate a data report which based on MYS posting date AND time in SAP?
MB51 the “Time of Entry” is still referring to GER time not MYS time, thus the user would still need to convert the date and time into GER UTC time in order to get the right information. we need to report the output and scanning performing by shiftly production operators

Is there anyway to help Production Control to get report without having to do manual calculation?
