We are using DI Studio 4.902
We have source databases which have different system time zones.
One is America/Los_Angeles, one is America/Chicago and one is America/Anchorage (Local Time)
To complicate this:
The America/Los_Angeles is an Oracle Database
The America/Chicago is a SQLServer database
The America/Anchorage is a MySql database
What we would like to do is to set the Time Zones to convert to Local time (America/Anchorage) when we extract the data from the source databases so the resultant SAS Datasets all have their DATEn. formats return the Local time without having to do this for each DATE value.
Ideally we'd like to do this as a global setting, or failing that, at least a setting at the job level. Is there a way to do this, or are we going to have to convert each DATEn. variable in the SAS datasets one at a time in the transformations?
