MOVE Considerations for Date-Time Data Items

This section describes some of the considerations for using date-time data items in the MOVE statement and, statements where there is an implicit move (READ INTO, WRITE FROM, REWRITE FROM, RETURN INTO, and RELEASE FROM), and relation conditions:
  • Translation of @p (am or pm) to upper-case (AM or PM)
  • Conversion of 2-digit years to 4-digit years or centuries
  • Overriding the default date window using the DATTIM process statement option
  • Conversion of times to microseconds
  • Time Zones.
