| Hi Vineet, can you set this up in QA8 so I can see what is going on? |

| Hi Vineet, the "POS TIME" and the "SDC Time" are both extracted from the SDC device based on the POS Time input when the POS invoice is signed. The report date is the system date when the report was run. The VMS system is validated against the TMS system provided for certification, therefore to assist with specific vendor issues, you will need to set up the environment and provide me with details on this issue so I can help you and the SDC vendor work out where the issue is. Similar to the way you reported the INSPUR device issue. |

| Sanjay, 1:55 PM I don't think this is SDC specific issue, I can reproduce this by connecting to TIMS in Samoa and ill get a different POS and SDC time, this is because my machine is AEST and Samoa is a different time zone, so SDC time is different from POS time. I will need to investigate further.
Vineet, 1:57 PM I have verified this at 5 sites on version 13. Their Region is English Fiji. Time synced with internet time
2:04 PM Are you saying that all of your softSDC clients have this issue?
Vineet, 2:07 PM I have verified at 5 sites. 2 snaps are attached. 1 Dannys and the other Young and Associates
2:08 PM Can you confirm none of your SoftSDC sites is correct
Vineet, 2:08 PM Version 9 Extra is correct
Same version of SDC. SDC version is 2.062
2:15 PM so can you confirm all your SOFT SDC on V13 + is not working or has this time issue?
Vineet, 2:17 PM It's POS time on the receipt that is incorrect
So not sure if its to do with SoftSDC
2:19 PM no, it's not SoftSDC specific, the time entries you highlighted is returned by the signing device. so basically the POS sends 4.30 PM, and the signing device returns the POS and SDC time to print on the report |

| Hi Vineet, I have reproduced this issue using the development system FRCS provided. Seems like the POS Time needs to be translated to UTC "Z" format. I will investigate further and get a patch for 13.20 asap. |

| FRCS has confirmed the following: - Input time (DateAndTimeOfIssue) needs to be in ISO 8601, however, the example provided in the Developer guide is in UTC or "Z" (Zulu) time
- The POS Time is displayed in the Server Time Zone. Time Zone is not indicated in the output.
- The SDC Time is displayed in the SDC Server time. Time Zone is not indicated in the output.
Next Step: - Confirm time zone is UTC (Z) when signing invoices from LinkPOS
- Verify results on the following devices available to the Link Dev team:
- Inspur
- VSDC
- Developer ESDC
- Provide update to Vineet to verify on SoftSDC (Not supported as Link Dev team has not been provided with a Dev Environment)
