PM48266: AGE FUNCTION IN REPORT STUDIO RETURNS INCORRECT RESULTS ON SPECIFIC DATES

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Using the age function will intermittently return the incorrect
  date. We've discovered that if you're local system time is set
  to 7/26/2001 the age function will miscalculate certain ages for
  example may 31st and Jun 1st both return 125 days old. ????There
  may be other dates that cause this behavior as well this is just
  the one noted as reproducible.??
