PH73118: MICROSECOND PRECISION IS NOW SUPPORTED IN THE START/END DATE-TIME FIELDS ON APPLICABLE ISPF PANELS.

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as new function.

Error description

• Previously, the Start/End Date-Time fields on ISPF panels were
  limited to second-level precision, requiring users to manually
  modify generated JCL to specify microseconds. This enhancement
  adds microsecond support directly to all panels that contain
  Start/End Date-Time fields, allowing users to specify sub-second
  time ranges through the panel interface.
  The Start/End Date-Time field has also been updated with minor
  design changes to accommodate the enhanced timestamp format.
  This enhancement applies to the following panels:
  	Generate Database Activity Report (General)
  	Process Archived Output
  	Track Schema Changes
  With this enhancement, users can define report and processing
  ranges with microsecond precision directly from the ISPF panels,
  improving usability and enabling more precise log analysis.
