I am building a report that needs to show the time that a work item was sent to a particular work queue. The object is a dttime field, and I formatted it to show time only:
=FormatDate(, “HH:mm:ss”)
The problem is that there is an inconsistency between the source data and the universe (I think due to daylight savings issues) where the source system which is correct might say 6pm, but the data in BusObj says 5pm. So I am looking to add 1 hour to all my times, but am having trouble accomplishing this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
It’s not a nice and simple formula but it should work:
Hi
I just wanted to add an hour with my existing timestamp, your input is more appreciated. I wanted to do this only on the Report and not on the universe.
Say the time in the column 14-08-2009 14:30:00, i wanted to display it as 14-08-2009 15:30:00
Regards

Marek,
Doesn’t have to be pretty as long as it works, and works it does! Thank you sir!

A Simple Formula. Hope it helps.
=FormatDate(CurrentDate() ,“dd-mm-yyyy”)+" “+(FormatDate(CurrentDate() ,“HH”)+1)+FormatDate(CurrentDate() ,”:mm:ss")

Yes, a simple formula but my guess is that it would not work when adding 1 hour changes also the date part of the datetime.
