gs.now returning yesterday's date!?

georgechen · ‎03-06-2016

Hi folks,

Just wondering if you could assist with the gs.now this time. the published date is a date type in KB_knowlege table (knowledge base), a client has raised the published date set to yesterday's date when she created a new KB. I was able to reproduce this in the early morning, and found a before business rule is setting the published date. Please see screenshot below

gs.now() in script background seems to output today's date and it does not output the time,

the question come to my head, is the gs.now() reflecting client's local time?

Any feedback is appreciated.

Kind regards,

Did you try it like this?

var gdt = new GlideDateTime();

gs.print(gdt.getDate());

That is displaying properly for me.
