Finish_date in PPM database does not match value in GUI

  • 1.  Finish_date in PPM database does not match value in GUI

    Posted May 16, 2019 04:19 AM

    Hi,

     

    I saw that the date in the database does not match the date in the GUI depending on seconds of the timestamp in database. Could reproduce on PPM 15.1.0.149 09 11 and PPM 15.5.1.240 01 51

     

    For Example in inv_investments:

    DB: schedule_finish: 2020-12-31 00:00:00.000

    End Date in GUI: 30.12.2020

     

    I would expect in GUI to see 31.12.2020

     

    If you just add one seconde in DB it shows the correct value:

    schedule_finish: 2020-12-31 00:00:01.000

    End Date in GUI: 31.12.2020

     

     

    As the projects are imported with just dates and added with 00:00:00.000 as time, it delivers wrong dates for the endusers in the GUI. Is this expected behavior? Or do we have to change the import and keep this in mind for any other date fields, which might be act like this.

    If you change the date field manually in the GUI, then the time 17:00:00.000 will be added automatically and the date field is correct.

     

     

     

    On the other hand for the schedule_start it seems to work correctly.

    DB: schedule_start: 2020-01-01 00:00:00.000

    Start Date in GUI: 01.01.2020

    and also:

    DB: schedule_start: 2020-01-01 23:59:59.000

    Start Date in GUI: 01.01.2020

    If you change the start date field manually in the GUI, the the time 08:00:00.000 wil be added automatically.

     

    Is this normale behaviour? Or a bug which needs to be adressed to support?

    We have to recheck all the finish_dates now to add a second, when the time is 00:00:00.000. And don't know which date fields are affected as well.

     

    Thanks for any response
