zdate/DSTswitch_contloctime

Short text
Activates/deactivates "continuous" system timeWhen transferring from summer to winter time, an hour takes placetwice. The SAP system can only run for this time as a whole or inpart under certain conditions.If it is running, this profile parameter specifies how the systemtime (SY-UDATUM, SY-TUZEIT) behaves. If the parameter is set to'off', the 'doubled hour' is also displayed twice.If the parameter is set to 'on', the doubled hour is 'expanded', sothat no doubled times can arise, that is, for example:

• off: 2:00, 2:30, 2:00, 2:30, 3:00.


• on : 2:00, 2:15, 2:30, 2:45, 3:00

NOTE:This profile parameter must always consistently have the same valueon all servers. If it is changed dynamically, it must be changed onall servers simultaneously.
