Fred, This was the first time "A" ran since the time change, but it's set to run by 'Time', not 'Interval'. But if what you said applies anyway, I should find out tomorrow when it's supposed to run again.

I believe all escalation next run times are computed when they run (and are in seconds until next run) so if "A" had not run since the time change it would have been calculated to run x seconds from the last time (and with the time change that would be 1 hour later than you thought) Fred From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG]<mailto:[mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG]> On Behalf Of David Durling Sent: Monday, March 12, 2012 12:56 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG<mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG> Subject: Re: Where does $DATE$ come from? ** Dave, So you've had to restart arsystem server to get things back in sync? I had an issue this morning where one escalation ("A") scheduled for 8:00 went off at 9:00, yet another escalation ("B") scheduled for 8:05 went off at the correct time. Differences I could think of: escalation A came from workflow originally built on a 6.0 server (and it's set to run on specific weekdays) , and B was built on our current 7.5 server (and it's set to run every day).

We have seen some issues with things being off an hour after a time change until we cycle services. That's mostly dealing with escalations.

Is it an Active Link? Or a Filter/Escalation? In case of an Active Link, the $DATE$ would taken from the client. In case of server side workflow objects, Filters or Escalations, they are set from the AR System application server (not the database application server).

This may seem like a strange question but yesterday I had a case where $TIMESTAMP$ was work correctly and diary field entries were correct but the $DATE$ was on hour behind as 3/10/2012 23:00:00 PM.
