2792603 - GETDATE function returns a value that is older than the previous call - SAP ASE

Symptom

  • The getdate function returns a value up to 1 minute older than the value returned on a previous execution
    • This causes incorrect timestamp values to be stored and may break application logic

  • The issue is seen for values very close to rolling over to the next minute.
    • A typical example is that after returning 1:20:59:996, the next value returned is 1:20:00:000 where 1:21:00:000 is expected.
