Unable to extract current date from current_timestamp for the local timezone in OTBI

Shifa Nazumudeen

Hi,

I have a requirement to report current day sales value. I am trying to leverage CURRENT_TIMESTAMP function as it gives me my local time. But when I try to extract date value from the current_timestamp after 5pm PST, it reverts to the next day as it picks the UTC time. Is there a way for me to override that and get the date part of the current_timestamp without UTC? Please advice.

Best
