.net 4 DateTime weirdness.
I'm new to the salesforce api and having a problem creating a new Case.
WSDL: Enterprise
.Net: 4.0
TimeZone in Salesforce: (GMT-07:00) Mountain Standard Time
TimeZone on computer: (UTC-07:00) Mountain Time (US & Canada)
I have a custom DateTime field "BillNext__c" defined in Cases
Here's the c# code snippet:
DateTime sfDateTime = DateTime.Now;
string updateValue = "2013-01-21 06:00:00";
parseOK = DateTime.TryParse(updateValue, out sfDateTime);
At this point sfDateTime is a date that looks like this: 21-Jan-13 6:00:00AM
I then set the "BillNext__c" property to "sfDateTime" and then set the "BillNext__cSpecified" property to true
The case gets added, but the BillNext in the user interface shows "1/10/2013 11:00 PM"
Any insights would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Russ
Did you tried to convert time to GMT or UTC before adding to Salesforce?
There should never be a reason for it to change it to 10 days difference, though...something else is wrong with that.
If you want to set BillNext__c to 6am on January 21st, you should be able to do this:
obj.BillNext__c = DateTime.Parse("2013-01-21 06:00:00").ToUniversalTime();
sfdc.update(new sObject[]{ obj });
