This article describes a simple workaround to display the timestamp in local time instead of UTC. The DATEADD() function adds or subtracts a specified time interval from a date when executing a SQL query.
The following SQL query utilizes the DATEADD function to convert from UTC to Pacific time ( UTC -8) and creates a new temporary column ' local time that displays the corresponding result:
SELECT TOP 1000 [ID]
,[Value]
,[SourceID]
,[QuantityID]
,DATEADD (HH,-8,TimestampUTC) as LocalTime
FROM [ION_Data].[dbo].[DataLog2] order by LocalTime desc
The '-8' corresponds to Pacific Time (UTC -8) and will need to be changed to convert to other time zones. The figures below show Executed query results as well as the original query :
