MRG: Docking Timestamp Source

---

Siebel database table rows include the date a row was last changed. For rows updated by Mobile Web Clients, the date can be stamped with the time when the change was made on the client (client timestamp) or the time when the update was applied to the server (server timestamp):

• Using the client timestamp promotes consistency across client and server databases, but can be misleading if a client's clock is set incorrectly or if the client resides in a different time zone.
• Using the server timestamp makes sure that timestamps are accurate, but causes the timestamps to differ for the same row on the client and the server.
• Setting this preference does not affect Siebel Remote conflict resolution logic or priorities. Updated timestamps are stored for purely informational purposes.
• To select Docking Timestamp Source, choose either Client Transaction Time (the default) or Server Database Merge Time.
